Six hundred paving stones were examined for cracks, and 15 were found to be cracked. The same 600 stones were then examined for

discoloration, and 27 were found to be discolored. A total of 564 stones were neither cracked nor discolored. One of these 600 stones is chosen at random. What is the probability that it is both cracked and distorted?

Answer: 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the events are :

C = paving stones found to be cracked.

D = paving stones found to be discolored.

Given : Total stones : T = 600  (i)

C = 15

D=  27

C'∩D'=  564   (ii)

Since C'∩D' = (C∪D)' = T- C∪D         (iii)

From (i) , (ii)and (ii) , we have

564 = 600- C∪D

⇒ C∪D=600- 564= 36

Formula : C∩D= C+D- C∪D

Put values , we get

C∩D= 15+27-36=6

Now ,

P(C\cap D)=\dfrac{C\cap D}{T}=\dfrac{6}{600}=0.01

The probability that it is both cracked and distorted is 0.01.

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

The two points solutions to the system of equations are: (2, 3) and (-1,6)

Step-by-step explanation:

These system of equations consists of a parabola and a line. We need to find the points at which they intersect:

x^2-2x+3=-x+5\\x^2-2x+x+3-5=0\\x^2-x-2=0\\(x-2)(x+1)=0

Since we were able to factor out the quadratic expression, we can say that the x-values solution of the system are:

x = 2 and x = -1

Now, the associated y values we can get using either of the original equations for the system. We pick to use the linear equation for example:

when x = 2 then  y=-(2)+5=3

when x= -1  then  y=-(-1)+5=6

Then the two points solutions to the system of equations are: (2, 3) and (-1,6)

Find the value of x.
tatiyna

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

(5x+4)+(x-2)+(3x+7) = 180

5x+4+x-2+3x+7 = 180

9x+9 = 180

9x = 171

x = 171/9

x = 19

anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

10 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Mario can eat e21 hot dog in 6 minutes

Let 35 hot dog  eats in x minutes :

\frac{35}{x} =\frac{21}{6} \\x=\frac{35(6)}{21} \\x=10 min

Therefore, mario would eat 35 dogs in 10 min.
