VMariaS [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

2n+5 =3

n=-1

The number is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be the number

Twice the number

2n

Plus 5

2n+5

is means equals

2n+5 =3

Now we want to solve

Subtract 5 from each side

2n+5-5 = 3-5

2n = -2

Divide each side by 2

2n/2 = -2/2

n = -1

vova2212 [387]

Step-by-step explanation:

x=y+9

substitute

3(y+9)+8y=-6

3y+27+8y= -6

13y = -6 -27

13y= -33

y = -33/13

x = -33/13 + 9

Q and r are independent events. if p(q) = 1/4 and p(r)=1/5, find p(q and r)
klasskru [66]

Answer:

(b) \frac{7}{30}

Step-by-step explanation:

When two p and q events are independent then, by definition:

P (p and q) = P (p) * P (q)

Then, if q and r are independent events then:

P(q and r) = P(q)*P(r) = 1/4*1/5

P(q and r) = 1/20

P(q and r) = 0.05


In the question that is shown in the attached image, we have two separate urns. The amount of white balls that we take in the first urn does not affect the amount of white balls we could get in the second urn. This means that both events are independent.


In the first ballot box there are 9 balls, 3 white and 6 yellow.

Then the probability of obtaining a white ball from the first ballot box is:

P (W_{u_1}) = \frac{3}{9} = \frac{1}{3}

In the second ballot box there are 10 balls, 7 white and 3 yellow.

Then the probability of obtaining a white ball from the second ballot box is:

P (W_{u_2}) = \frac{7}{10}

We want to know the probability of obtaining a white ball in both urns. This is: P(W_{u_1} and W_{u_2})  

As the events are independent:

P(W_{u_1} and W_{u_2})  = P (W_{u_1}) * P (W_{u_2})

P(W_{u_1} and W_{u_2})  = \frac{1}{3}* \frac{7}{10}

P(W_{u_1} and W_{u_2})  = \frac{7}{30}

Finally the correct option is (b) \frac{7}{30}

Find the six trigonometric function values for angle ∅ where its adjacent side is -9 and its hypotenuse is 41. (Theta is located
arsen [322]
Check the picture below.

\bf \textit{using the pythagorean theorem}&#10;\\\\&#10;c^2=a^2+b^2\implies \sqrt{c^2-a^2}=b&#10;\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;c=hypotenuse\\&#10;a=adjacent\\&#10;b=opposite\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\sqrt{41^2-(-9)^2}=b\implies \sqrt{1681-81}=b\\\\\\ \sqrt{1600}=b\implies 40=b\\\\&#10;-------------------------------

\bf sin(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{40}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{41}}\qquad~~  cos(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-9}}{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{41}}\qquad~~  tan(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{opposite}{40}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{-9}}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;csc(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{41}}{\stackrel{opposite}{40}}\qquad ~~sec(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{hypotenuse}{41}}{\stackrel{adjacent}{-9}}\qquad ~~cot(\theta )=\cfrac{\stackrel{adjacent}{-9}}{\stackrel{opposite}{40}}
