Answer:

11/25 The right answer is not a part of the options given.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Probability that event M will not occur = 0.8

Probability that event R will not occur = 0.6

Then the ;

Probability that event M will occur = 1 - 0.8 = 0.2

Probability that event R will occur = 1 - 0.6 = 0.4

If events M and R cannot both occur, probability that either event M or event R will occur

=  probability that M occurs and R does not or the probability that R occurs and M does not

= 0.2 × 0.6 + 0.4 × 0.8

= 0.12 + 0.32

= 0.44

= 11/25

The height, h, of a falling object t seconds after it is dropped from a platform 300 feet above the ground is modeled by the fun
notka56 [123]
Average rate = [h(3) - h(0)]/(3 - 0)
h(3) = 300 - 16(3)^2 = 300 - 16(9) = 300 - 144 = 156
h(0) = 300 - 16(0)^2 = 300

average rate = (156 - 300)/3 = -144/3 = -48

Therefore, the object falls with an average rate of 48 ft/s during the first 3 seconds.

Answer: 55

The angles that measures 125 and y make a linear pair (equal 180)

So you just do 180-125 to get y

Triangle DNO has vertices at D(5, 8), N(– 3, 10), and O(– 3, 6). If vertex D is translated 4 units to the right, the best name f
prisoha [69]

Using distance between two points to find the lengths of the edges of the triangle, the correct option is:

b. Isosceles

The distance between two points, (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2), is given by:

d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}

Vertex D is translated 4 units to the right is (9,8).

The lengths of the edges are:

DN = \sqrt{(9 - (-3))^2 + (8 - 10)^2} = \sqrt{12^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{148}

DO = \sqrt{(9 - (-3))^2 + (8 - 6)^2} = \sqrt{12^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{148}

NO = \sqrt{(-3 - (-3))^2 + (10 - 6)^2} = \sqrt{0^2 + 4^2} = 4

<u>Two edges of the same length</u>, hence, it is an isosceles triangle, given by option b.

For every car you sell, you get a 6% commission. IF your total sales for the month is $125,650, what is your commission?
Lera25 [3.4K]
Let
x= total cost of cars
y= total commission paid out for all cars sold

6%= 6/100 = .06

Set up an equation:
y= .06(x)

Given: x= $125,650

substitute into the y= .06(x)

multiply $125,650 by .06.

The answers would be: 7539


hope this helped :)

Tasha lists all the multiple of 3 from 3 to99. Tony lists all the multiples of 5 from 5 to100. What is the first number that is
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

  • Multiples of 3 = 3, 9
  • Multiples of 5 = 5, 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In a list of 3 to 99, the first multiple of 3 will be none other than 3 itself because when multiplied by 1, you get three.

The second number will be: 3 * 2 = 6

In a list from 5 to 100, the first multiple will be 5 with 5 being a multiple of itself when multiplied by 1.

Second number = 5 * 2 = 10
