Answer:

the probability that it is not a drama movie is 15/23

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the probability we have to make the number of favorable events divided the number of possible events

number of possible events = x

to calculate it we add all the movies

x = 10 + 5 + 8

x = 23

number of favorable events = y

to calculate it we subtract the drama movies from the total of movies

y = x - 8

y = 23 - 8

y = 15

now we divide 15 by 23 and we get the probability

15/23

Write an equation of a line in point-slope, slope-intercept, and standard form that has
Inga [223]

Answer:

(a) y + 4x - 14 = 0

(b) y = -4x + 14

(c) y + 4x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the equation of line in point - slope form is given as :

y-y_{1}  = m(x-x_{1} )

where m is the slope

Given from the question :

m = - 4

x_{1} = 2

y_{1} = 6

Substituting into the formula , we have :

y - 6 = - 4(x - 2)

y - 6 = -4x + 8

y + 4x - 6 - 8 = 0

y + 4x - 14 = 0

Therefore :

(a) the equation of the line in point - slope form is y + 4x - 14 = 0

(b) to write it in slope - intercept form , we will make y the subject of the formula , which will give : y = -4x + 14

(c) the equation of line in standard form is ; y + 4x = 14

The length of a rectangle is 4 m longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 36 m , find its area.
ycow [4]
Answer:   The area of the rectangle is:  " 77 m² " .

__________________________________________________________
Note:  The formula for the area, "A" of a rectangle:

 →  A  =  L  *  w   ;

                 in which:  
     A = "area (of rectangle)" ; [in units of "m² " ; that is:  "square meters" ] ; 
                                     
     L = length = "(4 + w)" {in units of "meters (m)" } ;  
             
     w = width  {in units of "meters (m)" } ; 
_______________________________________________________

So;  " A = L * w " ;  

Substitute the known expression for the "length, L" ;  & rewrite the formula for the given area of OUR area for the rectangle in OUR GIVEN PROBLEM:

              →  A = (4 + w) * w '' ;
______________________________________________________

Note the formula for the perimeter, "P" ; 

 →  P = 2L + 2w  ; 

↔   2L + 2w = P 

 →  2L + 2w  = 36 m ;
_____________________________________________________
We want to find the "area" , "A" :
_____________________________________________________
Using the formula for the "perimeter, "P" (of the rectangle) ; & given that the perimeter is:  "36" (meters) ;  

 →  2L + 2w  = 36 ;

 →  Let us plug in the values for "Length (L)" & "width (w)" ; 

 →  2(w + 4)  + 2w = 36  ; 

So;   (2*w) + (2*4) + 2w = 36 ;  Solve for "w" ;

    →  2w + 8 + 2w = 36 ; 

    → Combine the "like terms" :

         + 2w + 2w = 4w ; 

   →  And rewrite: 

         4w + 8 = 36 ; 

Now, subtract "8" from EACH SIDE of the equation:

         4w + 8 − 8 = 36 <span>− 8 ; 
</span>
to get: 

         4w = 28 ; 

Now, divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "4" ; 
      to isolate "w" on EACH SIDE of the equation ; & to solve for "w" ; 

         4w / 4 = 28 / 4  ; 

           → w = 7 ;   → The "width" of the rectangle is:  " 7 m " .

Now, we can find the "length" of the rectangle:

The length, "L" , of the rectangle = 4 + w = 4 + 7 = 11 .
      
           →  L = 11 .  →  The "length" of the rectangle is:  " 11 m " .
___________________________________________________
 
Now, we can find the area, "A", of the rectangle.

 A = L * w  =  11 m * 7 m  =  " 77 m² " .

  →  The area of the rectangle is:  " 77 m² <span>" .
</span>__________________________________________________

To check our answer:
__________________________________________________
 
→  " P = 2L + 2w "  ; 

Given that "P = 36 m" ; 

Plug in "36 m" (for "P") ; into the equation ;

and plug in our calculated values for
                        "length, L" (which is "11 m") ; & "width, w" (which is "7 m") ; 

to see if the equation holds true ; that is, to see if both sides of the equation are equal ;
_______________________________________________________  

 →  36 m = ?  2L + 2w ?? ;

 →  36 m = ?  2(11 m) + 2(7 m) ?? ; 

 →  36 m = ?  22 m + 14 m ?? ; 

 →  36 m = ?  36 m ?  Yes!

Complete the truth for the given statement by filling in the required column
Vlad1618 [11]

Let's start by the first column. The symbol ~ means negation. ~s will be the opposite of s.

Since s from top to bottom is T F T F, ~s will be F T F T(from top to bottom).

The second symbol that appears is ∧. This symbols means that p∧q is only true when both p and q are true. It needs to satisfy both of them.

From top to bottom, in the first line for ~s∧r we have ~s false and r is true, since ~s is false the combination is also false. For the second line, we have ~s true and r is true, since both are true the combination is also true. and in the last 2 elements, we have a false r which indicates both of them are also false.

This means, the second column will be F T F F(from top to bottom).
