The answer is -320 ft. by 1920 ft. To solve this problem you need to correctly label and draw a figure to illustrate the given information. And then find the equations to represent the area and perimeter. The equation of the area is quadratic which is graphed will be a prabola opening downward. In order to maximize the area find the y-coordinate of the parabola's vertex. Used the formula of vertex to find the x-coordinate and then substitutes it back into the area formula.

A bag of 10 Marbles has the following composition: Red – 3 Green – 4 Blue – 2 Yellow – 1 What is the Compound Probability of rea
Katyanochek1 [597]

The probability of extracting a Yellow marble followed by a Blue marble is 2/45 if the bag of 10 Marbles has the following composition: Red – 3 Green – 4 Blue – 2 Yellow – 1

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Total number of marbles = 3+4+2+1 = 10

P(Yellow) = 1/10

P(Blue) = 4/9

Probability of extracting a Yellow marble followed by a Blue marble:

= (1/10)(4/9)

= 4/90

=  2/45

Thus, the probability of extracting a Yellow marble followed by a Blue marble is 2/45 if the bag of 10 Marbles has the following composition: Red – 3 Green – 4 Blue – 2 Yellow – 1

Mrs. Brown had an extra credit problem on the board that read if one line contained points (1,4) (3,7) and another line containe
Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

The lines would be parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:

If you moved both points from the first line over 2 and down 1 you would get the second line. Because your moving both points the same way they would never intersect.

Find the value of x and the value of y. A.x = 15, y = 10 B.x = 20, y = 50 C.x = 50, y = 10 D.x = 50, y = 20
Llana [10]

Answer:

X = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x - 100) + (x - 20) = 180 (sum of angle on a straight line is = 180)

5x + x -100 -120 = 180

6x - 120 = 180

6x = 180 + 120

6x = 300

x = 300/6

x = 50

For y

3y + y + 140 = 180

4y = 180 -140

4y = 40

y = 40/4

y = 10

Find the sequence of differences for the given sequence. Next, find a closed form solution for the following sequence. (Be sure
padilas [110]

Let a_n denote the given sequence with n\ge1:

\{a_n\}_{n\ge1}=\{1,5,11,19,29,41,\ldots\}

Let b_n be the sequence of the forward differences of a_n, so that b_n=a_{n+1}-a_n for n\ge1:

\{b_n\}_{n\ge1}=\{4,6,8,10,12,\ldots\}

b_n follows an arithmetic progression with a difference of 2 between terms, so that

b_n=4+2(n-1)=2n+2

Then we have

2n+2=a_{n+1}-a_n\implies a_{n+1}=a_n+2n+2

so that a_n is given recursively by

\begin{cases}a_1=1\\a_{n+1}=a_n+2(n+1)&\text{for }n\ge1\end{cases}

By substitution, we can try to find a pattern:

a_2=a_1+2\cdot2

a_3=a_2+2\cdot3=a_1+2(2+3)

a_4=a_3+2\cdot4=a_1+2(2+3+4)

a_5=a_4+2\cdot5=a_1+2(2+3+4+5)

and so on, with the general pattern

a_n=a_1+2(2+3+4+\cdots+n)

and since a_1=1 we can write this as

a_n=1+2(2+3+4+\cdots+n)

a_n=-1+2+2(2+3+4+\cdots+n)

a_n=2(1+2+3+4+\cdots+n)-1

Recall that

\displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^ni=1+2+3+\cdots+n=\dfrac{n(n+1)}2

Then

a_n=2\dfrac{n(n+1)}2-1\implies\boxed{a_n=n^2+n-1}
