5 packets of pencils would only be enough for 25 students because 5×5=25 so to get enough for the remaining 2 students you need to buy an extra packet thus buying 6 packets to be enough for 27 students

Find the indicated values, where g(t)=t^2-t and f(x)=1+x g(f(2)+3)

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

$g(f(2)+3)=30$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the two functions:

$g(t)=t^2-t\text{ and } f(x)=1+x$

And we wish to find:

$g(f(2)+3)$

First, let’s find f(2) first. So, we will substitute 2 for x for f(x):

$f(2)=1+(2)=3$

Hence, we can now substitute 3 for f(2):

$g(f(2)+3)=g(3+3)=g(6)$

Now, we can find g(6). Substitute 6 for t for g(t):

$g(6)=(6)^2-(6)=36-6=30$

Therefore:

$g(f(2)+3)=30$

A manufacturer of matches randomly and independently puts 23 matches in each box of matches produced. The company knows that one

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

0.9855 or 98.55%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of each individual match being flawed is p = 0.008. The probability that a matchbox will have one or fewer matches with a flaw is the same as the probability of a matchbox having exactly one or exactly zero matches with a flaw:

$P(X\leq 1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-p)^{23}+23*(1-p)^{23-1}*p\\P(X\leq 1)=(1-0.008)^{23}+23*(1-0.008)^{23-1}*0.008\\P(X\leq 1)=0.8313+0.1542\\P(X\leq 1)=0.9855$
