Answer:

2/4 cup of oats and 2/3 cup of flour

Step-by-step explanation:

for two batches, just double the original amount so

1/4 * 2 = 2/4

1/3 * 2 = 2/3

The area of a room is 600 square feet. The length is (x + 5) feet and the width is (x + 4) feet. Find the dimensions of the room

tangare [24]

I'm going to assume that the room is a rectangle.

The area of a rectangle is A = lw, where l=length of the rectangle and w=width of the rectangle.

You're given that the length, l = (x+5)ft and the width, w = (x+4)ft. You're also told that the area, A = 600 sq. ft. Plug these values into the equation for the area of a rectangle and FOIL to multiply the two factors:
$A = lw\\
600 = (x+5)(x+4)\\
600 = x^{2} + 9x + 20
$

Now subtract 600 from both sides to get a quadratic equation that's equal to zero. That way you can factor the quadratic to find the roots/solutions of your equation. One of the solutions is the value of x that you would use to find the dimensions of the room:
$600 = x^{2} + 9x + 20\\
x^{2} + 9x - 580 = 0\\
(x + 29)(x - 20) = 0\\
x + 29 = 0, \:\: x - 20 = 0\\
x = -29, x = 20$

Now you know that x could be -29 or 20. For dimensions, the value of x must give you a positive value for length and width. That means x can only be 20. Plugging x=20 into your equations for the length and width, you get:
Length = x + 5 = 20 + 5 = 25 ft.
Width = x + 4 = 20 + 4 = 24 ft.

The dimensions of your room are 25ft (length) by 24ft (width).

Find four distinct complex numbers (which are neither purely imaginary nor purely real) such that each has an absolute value of

Luda [366]

Answer:

0.5 + 2.985i
1 + 2.828i
1.5 + 2.598i
2 + 2.236i

Explanation:

Complex numbers have the general form a + bi, where a is the real part and b is the imaginary part.

Since, the numbers are neither purely imaginary nor purely real a ≠ 0 and b ≠ 0.

The absolute value of a complex number is its distance to the origin (0,0), so you use Pythagorean theorem to calculate the absolute value. Calling it |C|, that is:

$|C| = \sqrt{a^2+b^2}$

Then, the work consists in finding pairs (a,b) for which:

$\sqrt{a^2+b^2}=3$

You can do it by setting any arbitrary value less than 3 to a or b and solving for the other:

$\sqrt{a^2+b^2}=3\\ \\ a^2+b^2=3^2\\ \\ a^2=9-b^2\\ \\ a=\sqrt{9-b^2}$

I will use b =0.5, b = 1, b = 1.5, b = 2

$b=0.5;a=\sqrt{9-0.5^2}=2.958\\ \\b=1;a=\sqrt{9-1^2}=2.828\\ \\b=1.5;a=\sqrt{9-1.5^2}=2.598\\ \\b=2;a=\sqrt{9-2^2}=2.236$

Then, four distinct complex numbers that have an absolute value of 3 are:

0.5 + 2.985i
1 + 2.828i
1.5 + 2.598i
2 + 2.236i

Experiments with repeated independent trials will be described by the binomial distribution if

bija089 [108]

Answer:

d. each trial has exactly two outcomes whose probabilities do not change

Step-by-step explanation:

A binomial experiment is one where there are exactly two outcomes for each trial and probability for getting success is constant in each trial.

In other words, each trial is independent of the other.

The trials need not be continuous nor time between trials to be constant.

Since trials are to be independent, each trial cannot influence the next.

Only option d is right.

d. each trial has exactly two outcomes whose probabilities do not change

Examples are tossing of coins, throwing dice, drawing cards or balls with replacement, etc
