Hello! :)

What is the probability of choosing a pen from the first box? It is 5/10 = 1/2.

 

What is the probability of selecting a crayon from the second box? It is 5/8.

 

The probability of picking a pen from the first box and a crayon from the second box is 5/8 x 1/2 = 5/16.

Hope this helped and I hope I answered in time!

Good luck!

A particle is moving on a straight line in such a way that its velocity v is given by v ( t ) = 2 t + 1 for 0 ≤ t ≤ 5 where t is
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

The total distance traveled by the particle is S = 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that velocity,

v(t) = 2t + 1

To find the total distance travel, we integrate the velocity function, v(t), to obtain the distance function s(t), and evaluate the resulting distance at the interval given. That is at t = 0 to t = 5.

Integrating v(t) with respect to t, we have

s(t) = t² + t + C.

At t = 5

s(5) = 5² + 5 + C

= 25 + 5 + C

= 30 + C

At t = 0

S(0) = 0 + 0 + C

= C

The required distance is now

S(5) - S(0)

= 30 + C - C

= 30.

SOLVE FOUR AND FIVE I WILL GIVE BRAINLIST!
asambeis [7]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The circumference (C) of a circle is calculated as

C = πd ( d is the diameter )

(4)

Here d = 18, thus

C = 18π in

(5)

Here C = 50π, thus

πd = 50π ( divide both sides by π )

d = 50 in

The radius r is one half of the diameter , thus

r = 50 ÷ 2 = 25 in
