Multiply the two desired probabilities to find the answer.

5/12 is the probability for the plain pencil since there are 5 pencils out of 12 total items.

1/2 is the probability for the colored pencil since there are 3 colored pencils out of 6 total items. 3/6 simplifies to 1/2.

5/12*1/2= 5/24

Final answer: 5/24

A printing company charges $5.00 for the first 400 pages printed. For each page printed over 400, the customer is charged an add
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Up to 400 pages, the cost is fixed at 5.00 dollars

After 400 pages the cost is 0.01 cents/page

  • It's not A. 400 is the number of pages. It is not a cost.
  • It's not B either. B means that no matter how many pages you print, it's going to cost 5 dollars + the number of pages times 1 cent.
  • C is not the answer. It is really just an answer put it. You pay 1 cent for each page between 400 and what you printed.
  • I think D is the answer, but if you get a negative number, then the cost is 5 dollars

A) prove that MQX is congruent to MRY
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Side MQ is similar to side MR.

- This is because since M is the mid point of QR, both MQ and MR are half of QR.

Angle MXQ and MYR are 90°

Sides QX and RY are similar.

- This is because angle X and Y are 90° and MQ and MR are equal.

∴ MQX is congruent to MRY.

Use this graph of velocity vs. time for two objects to answer the question.
Lynna [10]

Using derivatives, it is found that the correct option is:

A. Object C has an acceleration that is greater than the acceleration for D.

The acceleration is the <u>derivative of the velocity</u>, given by change in velocity divided by change in time, that is:

a = \frac{\Delta_v}{\Delta_t}

In this problem:

  • The change in time for objects C and T is the same.
  • The <u>change in velocity for object C is greater</u>, thus, it has a greater acceleration, and the correct option is:

A. Object C has an acceleration that is greater than the acceleration for D.
