The area of a parallelogram is base multiplied by height and therefore 18/2 and there you go.

In one lottery game, contestants pick five numbers from 1 through 23 and have to match all five for the big prize (in any order)

mihalych1998 [28]

The probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649

<h3>How to determine the probability?</h3>

The numbers are given as:

1 to 23

There are five matching numbers

The probability of getting a match is:

p = 5-k/n where k = 0, 1, 2

While the complement probability is

q = (n - 2)/n

Using the above formulas, the probability of getting from 5 is:

P = 5/23 * 4/22 * 3/21 * 18/20 * 17/19

Evaluate the product

P = 153/33649

Hence, the probability of matching three out of five numbers is 153/33649

Courtney must earn at least $150 to pay for broken window. She earns $10 for every car she washes.

valkas [14]

Answer:

10c ≥ 150

At least 15 cars (or c ≥ 15)

Step-by-step explanation:

If she gets $10 for every car she washes a car then 10c is the rate of her gaining money and she needs at least (greater than or equal to) $150.

This equation can be used to express the situation:

10c ≥ 150

<em>To solve you divide the 10 from both sides of the inequality to get.</em>

c ≥ 15

Carlos has taken an initial dose of a prescription medication.

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

3.48 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

$M(t)=20 e^{-0.86t}$

Where

M(t) is the amount of medication remaining in mg

t is the time it takes, in hours

The questions asks HOW LONG it will take to make the remaining medication to 1 milligrams (1 mg)??

We have to substitute M(t) with "1" and find the corresponding value of "t". We will use natural log to solve this. Shown below:

$M(t)=20e^{-0.86t}\\1=20e^{-0.86t}\\0.05=e^{-0.86t}\\Ln(0.05)=Ln(e^{-0.86t})\\Ln(0.05)=(-0.86t)Ln(e)\\t=\frac{Ln(0.05)}{-0.86}\\t=3.48$

<u>Note: </u> Ln(e) = 1

This means, the amount of time it will take is about 3.48 hours

Use an algebraic approach to solve the problem.

qaws [65]

Answer:

Her first exam score was a 78, her second exam score was a 89, and his third exam score was a 94.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula for the mean: sum of elements / number of elements

Let x represent her first exam score.

Her second exam score can be represented by x + 11, since it was 11 points better than her first.

Her third exam score can be represented by (x + 11) + 5, since it was 5 points better than her second.

Plug in all of these expressions into the mean formula. Plug in 87 as the mean, and plug in 3 as the number of elements (since there are 3 scores):

mean = sum of elements / number of elements

87 = ( (x) + (x + 11) + (x + 11) + 5 ) / 3

Add like terms and solve for x:

87 = (3x + 27) / 3

261 = 3x + 27

234 = 3x

78 = x

So, her first score was a 78.

Find her second score by adding 11 to this:

78 + 11 = 89

Find her third score by adding 5 to the second score:

89 + 5 = 94

Her first exam score was a 78, her second exam score was a 89, and his third exam score was a 94.
