Answer:

8% probability that Anthony will soon be playing on the Acme golf team

Step-by-step explanation:

We have these following probabilities:

10% probability that he is hired by the corporation.

If he is hired by the corporation, an 80% probability that he will earn a spot on the golf team.

Given this information we can estimate that the likelihood that Anthony will soon be playing on the Acme golf team to be:

80% of 10%

So

P = 0.8*0.1 = 0.08

8% probability that Anthony will soon be playing on the Acme golf team

Find 5 consecutive whole numbers if it is known that the sum of the squares of the first 3 numbers is equal to the sum of the sq
lora16 [44]
Let the first number of the five we are looking for equal n.

Because the numbers are consecutive, the next four can be expressed as (n+1), (n+2), (n+3) and (n+4).

Our series of 5 numbers is therefore n,(n+1),(n+2),(n+3),(n+4).

We are told the sum of the squares of the first 3 is equal to the sum of the squares of the last 2 therefore:
n² + (n+1)² + (n+2)² = (n+3)² + (n+4)²

expand all the brackets to give
n² + n² + 2n + 1 + n² + 4n + 4 = n² + 6n + 9 + n² + 8n + 16
3n²+6n+5 = 2n²+14n+25
n²-8n-20=0

factorising this gives us
(n+2)(n-10) = 0 so the solutions are n=10 and n=-2

That means that n,(n+1),(n+2),(n+3),(n+4) could be [-2, -1, 0, 1 and 2] or [10, 11, 12, 13 and 14].

Since the question asks for whole numbers, and negative numbers are not classed as whole numbers, the numbers we want must be 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14.

You can check this on a calculator by doing 10² + 11² + 12² (=365) and 13² + 14² (=365).

I need the description of how to draw a parallel line and a perpendicular line.
EleoNora [17]
How to Draw Parallel Lines:
1. Draw a straight line any length

2. Draw another straight line any length

(note : ensure the lines will never intersect)

They shall never horizontally or vertically.

How to Draw Perpendicular Lines:
1. Draw a straight line vertically

2. Draw a straight line horizontally

(note : length does not necessarily matter)

The two lines must cross at right angles to each other!!

With the parallel line instructions, simply just draw lines but, when given the slopes of two lines, you must get graphing paper or make your own, and graph it by plotting points and then getting a ruler and tracing it.

With the perpendicular lines it helps with showing a relation between situations along with given slopes. They shall intersect always and meet at a 90° angle. Use the equations and plot them then take a ruler and trace them and notice the intersection. Solve it yourself and see that the intersection and the answers you got are the same.
