The radius of a basketball hoop is 9 inches. What expression can be used to find the hoop's circumference in inches?

What is the next term of the geometric sequence? 72,36,18

MissTica

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio is 1/2 so the next term would always be half of the previous one.

- 72 times 1/2 is 36

-36 times 1/2 is 18

-18 times 1/2 is 9. So the answer is 9

Over the past year, your friend Maura has been saving up for an epic road trip to travel across the country this summer. Her goa

Misha Larkins [42]

"Give an example of a sound financial decision Maura might make to support this goal. Why is it sound?"

She could choose to carefully budget her trip and avoid overspending at all costs. This prevents going into debt. She should also save up extra money in the event of an emergency.

Then give an example of a poor financial decision Maura might make considering her goal. Why is it a poor decision?

Not having a plan would be a poor decision on her part. She could end up spending too much and not realize how much money she has left.

I hope I helped!

The gravitational force exerted on a baseball is 2.24 N down. A pitcher throws the ball horizontally with velocity 17.0 m/s by u

Fittoniya [83]

To have a weight of 2.21N., the ball's mass is (2.21/9.8) = .226kg.
a) d = 1/2 (vt), = 1/2 (18 x .17), = 1.53m. 
b) Acceleration of the ball = (v/t), = 18/.17, = 105.88m/sec^2. 
f = (ma), = .226 x 105.88, = 23.92N.

John runs a computer software store. Yesterday he counted 123 people who walked by the store, 56 of whom came into the store. Of

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

a) There is a 45.53% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

b) There is a 41.07% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

c) There is a 18.70% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

d) There is a 58.93% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Step-by-step explanation:

This a probability problem.

The probability formula is given by:

$P = \frac{D}{T}$

In which P is the probability, D is the number of desired outcomes and T is the number of total outcomes.

The problem states that:

123 people walked by the store.

56 people came into the store.

23 bought something in the store.

(a) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

123 people walked by the store and 56 entered the store, so $T = 123, D = 56$ .

So

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{56}{123} = 0.4553$

There is a 45.53% probability that a person who walks by the store will enter the store.

(b) Estimate the probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

56 people came into the store and 23 bought something, so $T = 56, D = 23$ .

So

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{23}{56} = 0.4107$

There is a 41.07% probability that a person who walks into the store will buy something.

(c) Estimate the probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

123 people walked by the store and 23 came in and bought something, so $T = 123, D = 23$ .

So

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{23}{123} = 0.1870$

There is a 18.70% probability that a person who walks by the store will come in and buy something.

(d) Estimate the probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.

Of the 56 people whom came into the store, 23 bought something. This means that 56-23 = 33 of them did not buy anything. So:

$D = 33, T = 56$

$P = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{33}{56} = 0.5893$

There is a 58.93% probability that a person who comes into the store will buy nothing.
