Answer: Second graph.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 questions, and each question has 4 options.

Then, the probability to having one question correct by selecting an option at random is 1/3 = 0.25.

Now, the probability of answering incorrectly the question is 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

Now let's analyze the options:

Having the 3 questions wrong.

Here we have 3 times the probability of 0.75, then the joint probability is:

P = 0.75*0.75*0.75 = 0.42

Whit this we can discard the third graph, now let's calculate the probability of having one answer correct.

The probabilities are two times 0.75 and one times 0.25, but in this case, we have 3 possible combinations ( the correct one is the first, the correct one is the second, the correct one is the third) so we need to also add a factor of 3.

P = 0.75*0.75*0.25*3 = 0.42

Whit only these two calculations we can see that the correct graph is the second graph.  

We could also calculate the probabilities of having 2 correct answers (again, here we have 3 permutations, this time for the incorrect answer):

P = 0.25*0.25*0.75*3 = 0.14

The probability of having 3 correct answers is:

P = 0.25*0.25*0.25 = 0.02

We find the total amount he paid by 125+72.50(6), because he makes the payment of 72.50 for 6 months and has the down payment as well.
125+72.50(6) = 125+435 = 560.
To find the percent increase that he pays compared to paying the $500 at once, we first find the amount of increase.
560-500 = 60.
Now we divide the amount of increase by the original amount:
60/500 = 0.12
He pays an extra 12% by using the payment plan.

April shoots an arrow upward into the air at a speed of 32 feet per second from a platform that is 11 feet high. The height of t
dusya [7]

Answer:

27 ft

the maximum height of the​ arrow is 27 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The height of the arrow is given by the function;

h(t) = -16t^2 + 32t + 11

Maximum height is at point when dh(t)/dt = 0.

Differentiating h(t), we have;

dh/dt = -32t + 32 = 0

Solving for t;

-32t = -32

t = -32/-32 = 1

t = 1 (time at maximum height is t = 1)

Substituting t=1 into h(t), to determine the value of maximum height;

h(max)= -16(1^2) + 32(1) + 11

h(max) = 27 ft

the maximum height of the​ arrow is 27 ft.
