Answer:

\dfrac{1}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a spinner with 3 equally spaced colors Red, Blue, Yellow.

The colors are equally spaced, therefore probability of each color must be same.

i.e. Probability of occurrence of any one color in one spin is \frac{1}{3}.

To find:

Probability that spinner will stop one green in first spin and yellow in the second spin = ?

Solution:

As all the colors are equally likely to occur, so

Probability of green color in the first spin, P(G) = \frac{1}{3}

Probability of yellow color in the second spin, P(Y) = \frac{1}{3}

As we can observe that occurrence of any color in the second round of spin is not dependent on the color occurrence in the first spin, therefore these are the independent events.

P(G and Y) = P(G) \times P(Y)

\Rightarrow P(G\ and\ Y) = \dfrac{1}{3}  \times \dfrac{1}{3}\\\Rightarrow P(G\ and\ Y) = \bold{\dfrac{1}{9}}

Therefore, the required probability is

\dfrac{1}{9}.

The linear function f i with values f(-1) = 10 and f(5) = -1 is f(x)
zhenek [66]
Answer:

Use the two points to compute the slope, m, then use one of the points in the form <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span> to find the value of b.

Explanation:

The equation for the slope, m, of a line is:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−<span>y0</span></span><span><span>x1</span>−<span>x0</span></span></span> [1]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(2)</span></span>=−1</span> tells us that <span><span>x0</span>=2and<span>y0</span>=−1</span>; substitute this into equation [1]:

<span>m=<span><span><span>y1</span>−−1</span><span><span>x1</span>−2</span></span> [2]</span>

The equation <span><span>f<span>(5)</span></span>=4</span> tells us that <span><span>x1</span>=5and<span>y1</span>=4</span>; substitute this into equation [2]:

<span>m=<span><span>4−−1</span><span>5−2</span></span> [3]</span>

<span>m=<span>53</span></span>

Substitute <span>53</span> for m into the equation <span>y=m<span>(x)</span>+b</span>

<span>y=<span>53</span>x+b [4]</span>

Substitute 2 for x and -1 for y and the solve for b:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>+b</span>

<span>b=−<span>133</span></span>

Substitute <span>−<span>133</span></span> for b in equation [4]:

<span>y=<span>53</span>x−<span>133</span> [5]</span>

Check:

<span>−1=<span>53</span><span>(2)</span>−<span>133</span></span>
<span>4=<span>53</span><span>(5)</span>−<span>133</span></span>

<span>−1=−1</span>
<span>4=<span>4</span></span>

<span><span>
</span></span>

<span><span>Hope this helps </span></span>

What is the volume of this triangular Pyramid photo attached
storchak [24]

To find the volume of a triangular pyramid, the formula is:

V=\frac{1}{3}(Area\text{ }of\text{ }thebase)(height)

So we start by finding the area of the base, which is in the shape of a right triangle in this case.

The area of a right triangle is equal to 1/2 x base x height.

\begin{gathered} A=\frac{1}{2}bh \\  \\ A=\frac{1}{2}(5)(6) \\  \\ A=15\text{ square feet} \end{gathered}

We use this area to find the volume.

\begin{gathered} V=\frac{1}{3}Ah \\  \\ V=\frac{1}{3}(15)(6) \\  \\ V=30\text{ cubic feet} \end{gathered}

The volume of the triangular pyramid is 30 cubic feet.
