Graph the linear equation and answer each of the following questions.

A real estate agent has 8 master keys to open several new homes. Only 1 master key will open any given house. If 40% of these ho

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose F represents the value that a room is unlocked.

Then, we can assume that the probability of unlocked homes is:

P(unlocked homes) = P(U)

P(unlocked homes) = 40%

P(unlocked homes) = 0.40

Also, let us represent the value of the locked room with G.

P(locked homes) = P(G)

P(locked homes) = (1 - 0.40)

P(locked homes) = 0.60

Let the probability of selecting a correct key be P(S)

It implies that for the agent to use 3 keys, we have a combination of $^8C_3$ possible ways for the set of keys.

Now; since only one will open the house, then:

P(select correct key) = P(S)

$P(S) = \dfrac{ (^1_1) (^7_2) }{ ^8_3 }$

$P(S) = \dfrac{21}{56}$

P(S) = 0.375

Finally, for the real estate agent to have access to specific homes supposing the agent select three master keys at random prior to the time he left his office, Then:

P(F ∪ (G∩S) = P(F) + P(G∩S)

P(F ∪ (G∩S) = P(F) + P(G) × P(S)

P(F ∪ (G∩S) = 0.40 + (0.60×0.375)

P(F ∪ (G∩S) = 0.40 + 0.225

P(F ∪ (G∩S) =0.625

Which statement is true?

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

A logarithmic function is of the form: $y=log_{b}x$

For a logarithmic function to exist, we must fulfill certain conditions. The conditions are

i. The base, $b$ , is greater than 0. ${b>0)$

ii. The base, $b$ , is not equal to 1. $(b\ne 1)$

iii. $x$ must be greater than 0. $(x>0)$

Now, if we observe all the choices given, we conclude that the third choice is correct as the base there is 1. If base is equal to 1, then it violates the definition of logarithmic functions. So, the correct choice is:

$y=log_{1} x$ is not a logarithmic function because the base is equal to 1.

Find the value of x. Write your answer in simplest form.

slega [8]

Answer:

x = (9/2)√2

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of leg x to the hypotenuse 9 is equal to the cosine of 45 degrees:

cos 45 degrees = x/9

To find the value of x, multiply both sides of this equation by 9, obtaining 9*cos 45 degrees, which comes out to x =9(1/√2). Rationalizing the denominator, we get x = (9/2)√2

A sum of money is divided amongst Farah, Shaiyara and Zahin in the ratio 10: 7: 5. If

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answers:

Total amount of money = 220 dollars
Amount Farah gets = 100 dollars

==========================================================

Explanation:

F = amount Farah gets
S = amount Shaiyara gets
Z = amount Zahin gets

The money is divided in the ratio 10:7:5

This means that

F = 10x
S = 7x
Z = 5x

for some positive real number x.

Since Shaiyara gets $20 more than Zahin, we can say,

S = Z+20

Let's plug in S = 7x and Z = 5x and solve for x

S = Z+20

7x = 5x+20

7x-5x = 20

2x = 20

x = 20/2

x = 10

Therefore,

F = 10x = 10*10 = 100
S = 7x = 7*10 = 70
Z = 5x = 5*10 = 50

The ratio F:S:Z becomes 100:70:50 which reduces fully to 10:7:5 after dividing all three parts by the GCF 10.

The total sum of money shared is 100+70+50 = 220 dollars and Farah gets $100 of that total.
