Answer:

9 of 12 children had an apple.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will divide 12 by 4

12 / 4 = 3

1 / 12 = 3

3 * 3 = 9

9/12 = 3/4

9 of 12 children had an apple.

a bag contains eleven counters. five are white. a counter is taken out the bag and is not replaced. a second counter is taken ou

Fed [463]

Answer:

$\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{6}{11}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Probabilities

The question describes an event where two counters are taken out of a bag that originally contains 11 counters, 5 of which are white.

Let's call W to the event of picking a white counter in any of the two extractions, and N when the counter is not white. The sample space of the random experience is

$\Omega=\{WW,WN,NW,NN\}$

We are required to compute the probability that only one of the counters is white. It means that the favorable options are

$A=\{WN,NW\}$

Let's calculate both probabilities separately. At first, there are 11 counters, and 5 of them are white. Thus the probability of picking a white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{5}{11}$

Once a white counter is out, there are only 4 of them and 10 counters in total. The probability to pick a non-white counter is now

$\displaystyle \frac{6}{10}$

Thus the option WN has the probability

$\displaystyle P(WN)=\frac{5}{11}\cdot \frac{6}{10}=\frac{30}{110}=\frac{3}{11}$

Now for the second option NW. The initial probability to pick a non-white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{6}{11}$

The probability to pick a white counter is

$\displaystyle \frac{5}{10}$

Thus the option NW has the probability

$\displaystyle P(NW)=\frac{6}{11}\cdot \frac{5}{10}=\frac{30}{110}=\frac{3}{11}$

The total probability of event A is the sum of both

$\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{3}{11}+\frac{3}{11}=\frac{6}{11}$

$\boxed{\displaystyle P(A)=\frac{6}{11}}$

Let f(x) = 2x – 3 and g(x) = 3x – 2. Find the value.

Sholpan [36]

Answer:

Ok:

Step-by-step explanation:

So f°g . means f(g(x)). (The ° should be more center and bigger but I don't know to do that on a keyboard). f(g(x)) means that you replace the x in f(x) with the g(x) function. i.e:

if f(x) = 2x+2

and g(x) = $x^2$

f(g(x)) = $2x^2+2$ .

Similarly, in this case, we get f(x) = 2x-3 and g(x) = 3x-2.

Then, f(g(x)) or f°g(x) is 2(3x-2) - 3.

And we plug in -2 to solve:

2(3(-2)-2)-3.

and get -19.

Check if I am wrong because everyone makes mistakes but that is the way to solve this.

In a recent year, a sample of grade 8 Washington State public school students taking a mathematics assessment test had a mean sc

Daniel [21]

Answer:

The number is $N =1147$ students

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 281$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = 34.4$

The sample size is n = 2000

percentage of the would you expect to have a score between 250 and 305 is mathematically represented as

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(\frac{ 250 - 281}{34.4 } < \frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } < \frac{ 305 - 281}{34.4 } )$

Generally

$\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (Standardized \ value \ of \ X )$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(-0.9012< Z$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = P(z_2 < 0.698 ) - P(z_1 < -0.9012)$

From the z table the value of $P( z_2 < 0.698) = 0.75741$

and $P(z_1 < -0.9012) = 0.18374$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.75741 - 0.18374$

$P(250 < X < 305 ) = 0.57$

The percentage is $P(250 < X < 305 ) = 57\%$

The number of students that will get this score is

$N = 2000 * 0.57$

$N =1147$

Chin canned a number of quart jars anf a number of pints jars of tomatoes from hid garden. A pint is 16 onces and a quart is 32

ryzh [129]

Answer:

The equation which models the scenario is: 16 p + 32 q = 1280

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of pints packed = p

The total number of quarts packed = q

The weight of 1 pint jar of tomatoes = 16 oz

So, the total weight of p pints = p x ( Weight of 1 pint) = p x ( 16 oz) = 16 p

The weight of 1 quart jar of tomatoes = 32 oz

So, the total weight of q quarts = q x ( Weight of 1 quart) = q x ( 32 oz)

= 32 q

Now, the TOTAL WEIGHT of p pints and q quarts

= Total weight of { p pints + q quarts} = 16 p + 32 q

Also, chin canned a total of 1280 ounces.

⇒ TOTAL WEIGHT of p pints and q quarts = 1280 ounces

or, 16 p + 32 q = 1280 ounces

Hence, equation which models the scenario is: 16 p + 32 q = 1280
