A bag contains 6 RED beads, 3 BLUE beads, and 11 GREEN beads. If a single bead is picked at random, what is the probability that

the bead is RED or GREEN?

6 0

Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of beads = 6 + 3 + 11 = 20

We need RED or GREEN bead .

So no. of beads needed = 6 + 11 = 17

So probability of getting GREEN or RED beads = 17/20

Write an equation to model the distance between the point (2,4) and any point along the curve

zlopas [31]

Answer:

Distance D = √ [(2 - x)^2 + (3 - 4x^3)^2].

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the distance formula:

D = √[(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2].

So here it is

D = √[(2 - x)^2 + (4 - y)^2] where x,y is any point on the curve.

D = √[2 - x)^2 + (4 - (4x^3 + 1))^2]

D = √ [(2 - x)^2 + (3 - 4x^3)^2]

Solve each triangle. Round your answers to the nearest tenth

ivolga24 [154]

You have to use the Law of Cosines here, since there's no other way to solve this. it's not a right triangle, so you can't use the Pythagorean Theorem. The Law of Cosines will help us find the missing side length then we will have to use the Law of Sines to find another angle. Then after that we will use the Triangle Angle-Sum theorem to finish it off. Ready? The Law of Cosines to find side b is $b^{2} = a^{2}+ c^{2} -2ac cosB$ and fill in the info we know, which is everything but the b. $b^{2} =(21) ^{2} +(29) ^{2} -2(21)(29)cos109$ . Doing all that math gives us that side b = 40.9 or 41. Now the Law of Sines to find missing angle A or C. Let's find A. $\frac{sinA}{21} = \frac{sin109}{41}$ . That gives us that angle A is 29. Now use the fact that all triangles add up to 180 to get that angle C is 42. And you're done!

PLEASE HELP ILL MARK BRAINLIEST !!!

Answer:

a) the common difference is 20

b) $x_8=115 , x_{12}=195$

c) the common difference is -13

d) $a_{12}=52, a_{15}=13$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) what is the common difference of the sequence xn

Looking at the table, we get x_3=16, x_4=36 and x_5= 56

Deterring the common difference by subtracting x_4 from x_3 we get

36-16 =20

So, the common difference is 20

b) what is x_8? what is x_12

The formula used is: $x_n=x_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= 20, we need to find $x_1$

Using $x_3=16$ we can find $x_1$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_3=x_1+(3-1)d\\15=x_1+2(20)\\15=x_1+40\\x_1=15-40\\x_1=-25$

So, We have $x_1 = -25$

Now finding $x_8$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_8=x_1+(8-1)d\\x_8=-25+7(20)\\x_8=-25+140\\x_8=115$

So, $\mathbf{x_8=115}$

Now finding $x_{12}$

$x_n=x_1+(n-1)d\\x_{12}=x_1+(12-1)d\\x_{12}=-25+11(20)\\x_{12}=-25+220\\x_{12}=195$

So, $\mathbf{x_{12}=195}$

c) what is the common difference of the sequence $a_m$

Looking at the table, we get a_7=104, a_8=91 and a_9= 78

Deterring the common difference by subtracting a_7 from a_8 we get

91-104 =-13

So, the common difference is -13

d) what is a_12? what is a_15?

The formula used is: $a_n=a_1+(n-1)d$

We know common difference d= -13, we need to find $a_1$

Using $a_7=104$ we can find $x_1$

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_7=a_1+(7-1)d\\104=a_1+7(-13)\\104=a_1-91\\a_1=104+91\\a_1=195$

So, We have $a_1 = 195$

Now finding $a_{12}$ , put n=12

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{12}=a_1+(12-1)d\\a_{12}=195+11(-13)\\a_{12}=195-143\\a_{12}=52$

So, $\mathbf{a_{12}=52}$

Now finding $a_{15}$ , put n=15

$a_n=a_1+(n-1)d\\a_{15}=a_1+(15-1)d\\a_{15}=195+14(-13)\\a_{15}=195-182\\a_{15}=13$

So, $\mathbf{a_{15}=13}$
