Resistors. An electrical engineer has two boxes of resistors, with four resistors in each box. The resistors in the first box ar

e labeled 10 ohms, but in fact their resistances are 9, 10, 11, and 12 ohms. The resistors in the second box are labeled 20 ohms, but in fact haveresistances of 18, 19, 20, and 21 ohms. The engineer chooses one resistor from each box and determines the resistance of each. Answer the following:
A. List all possible outcomes in the sample space.
B. List all outcomes in the event B, the event that the second resistor has a resistance less than 19.
C. List all outcomes in the event C, the event that the sum of the resistances is equal to 28.
D. List all outcomes in B∪C.
E. List all outcomes in B(complement) ∩C .

Answer:

A. Sample Space = S = {(9, 18),(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 18),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 18),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 18),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B.  {(9, 18),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

C. {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18)}

D.  {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

E. B(complement) ∩C =  {(9, 19)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The Sample Space would contain each element of the box A associated with each element of the box B.

A. Sample Space = S = {(9, 18),(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 18),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 18),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 18),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B.  Let the Outcomes in the event B, the event that the second resistor has a resistance less than 19 be denoted by J then

J=  {(9, 18),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

C. Let the outcomes in the event C, the event that the sum of the resistances is equal to 28 be denoted by L then

L =  {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18)}

D. The  outcomes in B∪C contains all the elements of B and C

B∪C=J∪L= {(9, 18),(9, 19),(10, 18),(11, 18),(12, 18)}

E. B complement contains those elements of the Sample Space which are not the elements of Set B.

B complement= S-B=  {(9, 19),(9, 20),(9, 21),(10, 19),(10, 20),(10, 21),(11, 19),(11, 20),(11, 21),(12, 19),(12, 20),(12, 21)}

B(complement) ∩C contains those elements of B and C which are common to both B complement and C.

B(complement) ∩C =  {(9, 19)}

Answer:

I'm pretty sure they either terminate after so many digits (end) or repeat a certain pattern of numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first will look like this: 432.2340

The second would look like this: 324.234234234... ("234" would keep repeating over and over and over. And can be any sequence of #'s)

Ebi, Jose, Derell, and Asami measured their heights. Ebi's height was 2.5 cm greater than Jose's height. Jose's height was 3.1 c
irga5000 [103]
Start with assigning each person with a variable to represent their height

Ebi: e
Jose: j
Derell: d
Asami: a

Ebi'd height was 2.5 cm greater than Jose's height

j + 2.5 = e

Jose's height was 3.1 cm greater than Derell's

d + 3.1 = j

Derell's height is 0.4 cm less than Asami's height

a - 0.4 = d

Ebi is 162.5 cm tall

e = 162.5

So, plug in 162.5 into any of the above equations were there is a variable of e

j + 2.5 = e

j + 2.5 = 162.5

Subtract 2.5 from both sides of the equation

j = 160 cm

Jose's height is 160 cm

Now, plug in 160 into any of the above equations where there is a j

d + 3.1 = j

d + 3.1 = 160

Subtract 3.1 from both sides of the equation 

d = 156.9 cm

Derell's height 156.9 cm

so, plug in 156.9 into any of the above equations where there is a d

a - 0.4 = d

a - 0.4 = 156.9

Add 0.4 on both sides of the equation

a = 157.3 cm

Asami's height is 157.3 cm

Which table represents a linear function help ASAP!!!!!
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

The last one.

Step-by-step explanation:

I think it's the last one because as x increases by one, y increases by a constant rate of 5. The others don't increase by a constant rate. (I don't know if this is right but I think it is!)
