Answer:

The probability is 0.17

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to calculate the probability that Sheryl makes a free throw and Tess not making a free throw

To answer this question, we must remember that the probability of an event happening and that same event not happening is 1. This will guide us to answer this question.

The probability of Sheryl making a free throw is 0.25

The probability of Tess making a free throw is 0.32, his probability of not making a free throw will be 1-0.32 = 0.68

Now we calculate the probability asked in the question as;

Probability of Sheryl making a free throw * probability of Tess not making a free throw

= 0.25 * 0.68 = 0.17

7- a. What is the radius of the circle with center (3,10) that passes through (12,12)?
loris [4]

Answer: a. Radius of circle = \sqrt{85}

b. The equation of this circle : (x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Center of the circle = (3,10)

Circle is passing through (12,12).

a. To find the radius we apply distance formula (∵ Radius is the distance from center to any point ion the circle.)

Radius of circle = \sqrt{(12-3)^2+(12-10)^2}

Radius of circle = \sqrt{(9)^2+(2)^2}=\sqrt{81+4}=\sqrt{85}

i.e. Radius of circle = \sqrt{85}

b. Equation of a circle = (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 , where (h,k)=Center and r=radius of the circle.

Put the values of (h,k)= (3,10) and r= \sqrt{85} , we get

(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=(\sqrt{85})^2

(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85

∴  The equation of this circle :(x-3)^2+(y-10)^2=85

The quotient of a number and 2 is the same as the difference of the number doubled and 3. What is the number?
Yanka [14]

Hi,

x/2 = 2x - 3

x/2 - 2x = - 3

x = 3 /(3/2)

x = 3 * 2/3 = 2

The number is 2.

Please need help i need help i need help
xeze [42]

Set each expression from the parentheses equal to 0 separately like so:

Equation 1: x - 4 = 0

Equation 2: -5x + 1 = 0

Now for each equation solve for x!

Equation 1:

x +(- 4 + 4) = 0 + 4

x = 4

Equation 2:

-5x +( 1-1) = 0 - 1

-5x/ -5 = -1 / -5

x = 1/5

Check:

(4 - 4)(-5*4 + 1)

(0) (-20 + 1)

(0) (-19)

0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!

(1/5 - 4)(-5 * 1/5 + 1)

(-19/5)(-1 + 1)

(-19/5)(0)

0 = 0 -------------------------> correct!

smaller x = 1/5

larger x = 4

Hope this helped!
