Answer:

Probability that a randomly chosen college student does not take statistics is 0.16 .

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics is 0.84 .

Let the above probability that a randomly chosen college student takes statistics = P(A) = 0.84

<em> Now, probability that a randomly chosen college student does not take statistics is given by = 1 - Probability that a randomly chosen college student  takes statistics = 1 - P(A) </em>

So, required probability = 1 - 0.84 = 0.16 .

The first gardener can finish the job in 6 hours, and the second gardener can do the same job in 7 hours. How long it will take
marissa [1.9K]

If the first gardener can finish the job in 6 hours, it means that every hour he completes 1/6 of the job.

By the same logic, the second gardener completes 1/7 of the job per hour.

So, if they work together, they complete

\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{7}=\dfrac{7+6}{42}=\dfrac{13}{42}

of the job per hour.

So, after 42/13 of a hour, they'll complete the job. Since one hour is made of 60 minutes, 42/13 of a hour is

\dfrac{42}{13}\cdot 60 \approx 194

So, it will take them about 194 minutes to finish the job, i.e. about 3 hours and 14 minutes.

Starting with the graph of f(x) = 5^{x}, write the equation of the graph that results from (a) shifting f(x) 1 units downward. y
aev [14]
1 down, means minus 1 from whole equation
moving 1 to left means add 1 to every x
reflecting across x axis means multiply every x by -1

a. y=5^x+1
b. y=5^{x+1}
c. y=5^{-x}

What is D of the arithmetic sequence for which a5 equals 24 and a9 equals 40
Gnom [1K]

In an arithmetic sequence d represent the common difference.

The formula to find the general term of an arithmetic sequence is,

a_{n} =a_{1} +(n-1)d

Where a_{n}= nth term and

a_{1} = First term.

Given, a_{5} = 24, a_{9} = 40. Therefore,

a_{1} +(5-1)d = 24  , a_{1} +(9-1)d = 40

a_{1} +4d = 24  , a_{1} +8d = 40

Next step is to subtract the above equations so that we can eliminate a1 and get the value of d. Hence,

4d - 8d = 24 - 40

-4d = - 16

\frac{-4d}{-4}= \frac{-16}{-4} Divide each sides by - 16.

d = 4

So, d = 4.

Hope this helps yoi!.
