Answer:

  -0.715

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the log to the base 6, then apply your change-of-base formula.

  6^{x+2}=10\\\\x+2=\log_6{10}\\\\x=\log_6{(10)}-2\\\\x=\dfrac{\log{10}}{\log{6}}-2\\\\x=\dfrac{1}{\log{6}}-2\approx -0.714903\\\\\boxed{x\approx -0.715}

About 9​% of the population of a large country is allergic to pollen. If two people are randomly​ selected, what is the probabil
Sophie [7]

Answer:

Probability of both people being allergic: 0.81%.

Probability of at least one being allergic: 17.19%

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of one person being allergic to pollen is 9%, the probability of two people selected being both allergic is:

0.09 * 0.09 = 0.0081 = 0.81%

The probability of at least one being allergic can be calculated with 1 minus the probability of both not being allergic.

If the probability of being allergic is 9%, the probability of not being allergic is (1 - 0.09) = 0.91 = 91%.

So, the probability of both not being allergic is:

0.91 * 0.91 = 0.8281

Then, The probability of at least one being allergic is:

1 - 0.8281 = 0.1719 = 17.19%

The length of a rectangle is 2 yd longer than its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 40 yd , find its area.
elena-s [515]

perimeter = 2L+2W

L=2+w

40 = 2L+2W

40= 2(2+w)+2W

40=4+2w+2w

36=4w

w=9

L=9+2=11

2(9) = 18, 2(11) = 22, 22+18 = 40

L=11

W=9

 Area = L x w

area = 11x9= 99 square yards
