Answer:

Just as their corresponding sides are in the same proportion, perimeters and areas of similar polygons have a special relationship. Perimeters: The ratio of the perimeters is the same as the scale factor. ... You square the ratio because area is a two-dimensional measurement.

A student is saving money to buy a video game. The student currently has $20 and plans to save $10 every month. Write a function

4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

y = amount saved in dollars

x = months

Since the student already has $20 dollars saved (20) and plans to save $10 per month (10x), the equation so far is y = 20 + 10x.

You can use this to solve questions based of the equation/situation by filling in any numbers you are given where the variables are.

Hope this helps! :)

Suppose there are 4 defective batteries in a drawer with 10 batteries in it. A sample of 3 is taken at random without replacemen

SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

a.) 0.5

b.) 0.66

c.) 0.83

Step-by-step explanation:

As given,

Total Number of Batteries in the drawer = 10

Total Number of defective Batteries in the drawer = 4

⇒Total Number of non - defective Batteries in the drawer = 10 - 4 = 6

Now,

As, a sample of 3 is taken at random without replacement.

a.)

Getting exactly one defective battery means -

1 - from defective battery

2 - from non-defective battery

So,

Getting exactly 1 defective battery = ⁴C₁ × ⁶C₂ = $\frac{4!}{1! (4 - 1 )!}$ × $\frac{6!}{2! (6 - 2 )!}$

= $\frac{4!}{(3)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{2! (4)!}$

= $\frac{4.3!}{(3)!}$ × $\frac{6.5.4!}{2! (4)!}$

= $4$ × $\frac{6.5}{2.1! }$

= $4$ × $15$ = 60

Total Number of possibility = ¹⁰C₃ = $\frac{10!}{3! (10-3)!}$

= $\frac{10!}{3! (7)!}$

= $\frac{10.9.8.7!}{3! (7)!}$

= $\frac{10.9.8}{3.2.1!}$

= 120

So, probability = $\frac{60}{120} = \frac{1}{2} = 0.5$

b.)

at most one defective battery :

⇒either the defective battery is 1 or 0

If the defective battery is 1 , then 2 non defective

Possibility = ⁴C₁ × ⁶C₂ = 60

If the defective battery is 0 , then 3 non defective

Possibility = ⁴C₀ × ⁶C₃

= $\frac{4!}{0! (4 - 0)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{3! (6 - 3)!}$

= $\frac{4!}{(4)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{3! (3)!}$

= 1 × $\frac{6.5.4.3!}{3.2.1! (3)!}$

= 1× $\frac{6.5.4}{3.2.1! }$

= 1 × 20 = 20

getting at most 1 defective battery = 60 + 20 = 80

Probability = $\frac{80}{120} = \frac{8}{12} = 0.66$

c.)

at least one defective battery :

⇒either the defective battery is 1 or 2 or 3

If the defective battery is 1 , then 2 non defective

Possibility = ⁴C₁ × ⁶C₂ = 60

If the defective battery is 2 , then 1 non defective

Possibility = ⁴C₂ × ⁶C₁

= $\frac{4!}{2! (4 - 2)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{1! (6 - 1)!}$

= $\frac{4!}{2! (2)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{1! (5)!}$

= $\frac{4.3.2!}{2! (2)!}$ × $\frac{6.5!}{1! (5)!}$

= $\frac{4.3}{2.1!}$ × $\frac{6}{1}$

= 6 × 6 = 36

If the defective battery is 3 , then 0 non defective

Possibility = ⁴C₃ × ⁶C₀

= $\frac{4!}{3! (4 - 3)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{0! (6 - 0)!}$

= $\frac{4!}{3! (1)!}$ × $\frac{6!}{(6)!}$

= $\frac{4.3!}{3!}$ × 1

= 4×1 = 4

getting at most 1 defective battery = 60 + 36 + 4 = 100

Probability = $\frac{100}{120} = \frac{10}{12} = 0.83$

(-3+2)-(-5+7)<br> simplify

FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

First take (-3+2) and simplify that which will turn into (-1). Then take (-5+7) which will turn into (2). Then plug that back into the equation and you get (-1)-(2). And you get -3.

What is the area of this figure???

pshichka [43]

Answer:

24 mm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x 4 x 1/2 = area of the triangle

4 x 3 = area of the rectangular top left

1 x 6 = area of the bottom rectangle

3 x 4 = 12 x 1/2 = 6

4 x 3 = 12

6 x 1 = 6

6 + 12 + 6 =24
