Answer:

0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime outcomes on a die: 2,3,5

P(prime) = 3/6 = 1/2

Even outcom: 2,4,6

P(even) = 3/6 = 1/2

P(prime & even)

= P(prime) × P(even)

= ½ × ½

= ¼ or 0.25

Answer:

y = -7/2x + 17/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (-9 - - 2)/(5 - 3)

= -7/2

y-intercept: -2 - (-7/2)(3)

= -2 + 21/2 (-2*2+21)/2

= 17/2

State whether the linear equations in each pair are parallel, perpendicular,or neither.

All I know is they can’t be parallel because they don’t have the same gradient. I don’t think they are perpendicular either but don’t fully trust me on that

You have 42 ft. of fencing (1 ft. segments) to make a rectangular garden. How much should each side be to maximize your total ar

Verizon [17]

Answer:

$Length=10.5\ ft$

$Width=10.5\ ft$

$Area=110.25\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the length of the rectangular garden

y---> the width of the rectangular garden

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to

$P=2(x+y)$

we have

$P=42\ ft$

$42=2(x+y)$

simplify

$21=(x+y)$

$y=21-x$ ------> equation A

Remember that the area of rectangle is equal to

$A=xy$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$A=x(21-x)$

$A=21x-x^{2}$ ----> this is a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex is a maximum

The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum area

The x-coordinate of the vertex is the length side of the rectangle that maximize the area

using a graphing tool

The vertex is the point $(10.5,110.25)$

see the attached figure

$x=10.5\ ft$

Find the value of y

$y=21-10.5=10.5\ ft$

The garden is a square

the area is equal to

$A=(10.5)(10.5)=110.25\ ft^{2}$ ----> is equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex is correct

Some integers are irrational numbers true or false please explain

Agata [3.3K]

False, all integers are rational because they can be expressed as a fraction. Like -4 is a rational number because it can be -4/1. All integers are rational.
