A combination lock has three wheels, each numbered 0-9, and the combination is set at 234. Is the combination a system of indepe

ndent or dependent events?

Answer:

Independent event

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent event is defined as events that will not influence each other. In this question, the combination lock has three separate wheels. Each wheel has one key out of 10 possible numbers. The key of the first wheel will not influence the number pool of second and third wheels. All of the wheels will have 10 possible numbers regardless. Therefore, the combined number is an independent event.

There are three kids. The sum of individual squares of their body weights (2 + 2 + 2) is 100. The sum of the product of their we
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Let child one = x

Let child two = y

Let child three = z

Equations

x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 100

xy + xz + yz = 150

Solution

There's a trick here. The square of their weights added together is equal (with some modification) to the given conditions. Start by squaring (x+y+z).

(x + y + z)^2 = x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 2xy + 2xz + 2yz

Take out 2 as a common factor from the last three terms.

(x + y + z)^2 = (x^2 + y^2 + z^2+ 2(xy + xz + yz) )

Substitute the given conditions into the equation. (x^2 + y^2 + z^2) = 100 and 2*(xy + xz + yz) = 2 * 150

(x + y + z)^2 = 100 + 2*150

(x + y + z)^2 = 100 + 300

(x + y + z)^2 = 400

Take the square root of both sides.

sqrt(x+y+z)^2 = sqrt(400)

x + y + z = 20

Note

This answer tells you nothing about the values of x y and z. On the other hand it does not ask for the values of x y and z.

N is a rational number.m is an irrational number.n2 cannot be an irrational number? why or why not
Korolek [52]

If n is rational, it means that

n\in\mathbb{Q}\Rightarrow n=\frac{p}{q},\quad p\in\mathbb{Z},\quad q\in\mathbb{Z}^*

Therefore when we do n² we can write it as

n^2=\frac{p^2}{q^2},\quad p\in\mathbb{Z},\quad q\in\mathbb{Z}^*

Remember that the product of two integer numbers is also an integer, therefore we can guarantee that

p^2\in\mathbb{Z}\text{ and }q^2\in\mathbb{Z}^*

Then we can confirm that n² is the quotient of two integers and the denominator is not zero, therefore, n² is always rational, it cannot be an irrational number

Someone please help me with this geometry proof question ASAP!
vivado [14]

Answer:

if ∠Q=∠R

draw an angular bisector from P to QR in which it intersect wit Qr at point S

now we have two triangle : QPS and RSP

in which angle : QPS=RPS ( PS is angular bisector)

and we have angle Q and angle R are equal

and PS is common side

this makes triangle QPS and RSP are congruent by AAS(angle angle side)

which also means that pQ=PR ( proved)

I'm not smart and I stink at math so can someone plz help me 12/x = 8
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

1. We need to get rid of all the denominator in this equation.

  • This can be done by multiplying left and right sides by the LCD.
  • In the problem: 12/x = 8, the LCD is X.

12/x = 8 is now 12 = x * 8

1a. 8 * x = 8x

Now, your answer is 3/2, but It's improper. Let's convert it into a mixed number.

Subtract 3 by 2.

3 - 2 = 1

3/2 = 1 1/2

Therefore, your answer is 1 1/2. Also, the answer is 1.5.
