$288.58

Step-by-step explanation:

310.30/100=3.10

3.10*7=21.72

310.30-21.72=288.58

Therefore the answer is $288.58

Kerry has a bag containing white and yellow marbles. Kerry randomly selects one marble, records the result, and returns the marb

dexar [7]

Answer:

The probability that next selection is yellow marble = 63% .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the selection of yellow marbles = 41 times.

The selection of white marble = 24 times.

Total number of selections made = 65

Now calculate the probability that the next selection will be the yellow marble. Therefore, the probability of getting yellow marble can be determined by dividing the yellow selection by total number of selections.

$\text{P(yellow)} = \frac{ \text{The selection of yellow marbles} }{ \text{ Total number of slections }} \\\text{P(yellow)} = \frac{41}{65} = 0.63 \ or \ 63 \ percent$

Let f ( x ) = 2 x − 1 , g ( x ) = 3 x , and h ( x ) = x ^2 + 1 , what is h( h ( 5) ) ?

strojnjashka [21]

First you would solve for h(5) by plugging in 5 as your x, then solving it.

h(5) = 5^2 + 1
h(5) = 25 + 1
h(5) = 26

Next you would multiply the 26 by the individual h, which is basically h(1).

h(1) = 1^2 + 1
h(1) = 2

Lastly you multiply your h(1) value by the h(5) value to get your answer.

h(1) • h(5) = 26 • 2
h[h(5)] = 52

Which of the sets of three dimensions could make a right triangle

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

B) 6, 8, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

All right triangles will follow the following theorem (Pythagorean theorem):

$a^2+b^2=c^2$ , where $a$ and $b$ are two legs of the triangle and $c$ is the hypotenuse. Out of all answer choices, only B) 6, 8, 10 follow this theorem.

A 25 foot ladder is leaning against a house. If the angle of Elevation of the ladder is 72 degrees:

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

1. 23.8

2. 7.7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>for the first blank</u>

use sin because x is opposite and 25 is hypotenuse

set up an equation:

sin(72)= (x/25)

multiply both sides by 25:

25(sin(72))= (x/25)25

25(sin(72))= x

multiply 25 by sin(72):

23.8 = x

<u>for the second blank</u>

use cos because x is adjacent and 25 us hypotenuse

set up an equation:

cos(72)= (x/25)

multiply both sides by 25:

25(cos(72))= (x/25)25

25(cos(72))= x

multiply 25 by cos(72):

7.7= x

The probability that a civil servant own a car is 1/6,if two civil servants are selected at random.find the probability that

Elodia [21]

Answer:

The data we have is:

the probability that a civil servant own a car is 1/6

Two civil servants are selected at random.

a) The probability that each own a car.

Ok, here we have two events:

Person 1 haves a car.

Person 2 haves a car.

The probability of each of those events is the same, 1/6.

P1 = 1/6

P2 = 1/6

Now, the probability of both events happening at the same time is equal to the product of the individual probabilities.

P = P1*P2 = (1/6)*(1/6) = 1/36.

b) Only one has a car.

Suppose that Person 1 has the car and Person 2 has not a car.

The probability for person 1 is 1/6.

And for person 2, is the negation of having a car:

So if we have prob of having a car = 1/6

Then the probability of not having a car is = 1 - 1/6 = 5/6.

Then we have:

P1 = 1/6

P2 = 5/6.

The joint probability is:

P = P1*P2 = (1/6)*(5/6) = 5/36.

But we also have the case where person 1 does not have a car, and person 2 does have one, then we have a permutation, and the actual probability is two times the obtained above.

P = 2*(5/36) = 10/36
