Answer:

5832 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the circle has 8 sectors and there is 4 colour,

Assuming the sectors are numbered 1 to 8,

Sector 1 : can be coloured with any of the 4 colour in 4 ways

Sector 2 can be coloured with any of the remaining 3 colours in 3 ways

Sector 3 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 2

Sector 4 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 3

Sector 5 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 4

Sector 6 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 5

Sector 7 in 3 ways without using the colour in sector 6

Sector 8 in 2 ways without using the colours in sector 1 and 7

Number of ways of colouring = 4*3*3*3*3*3*3*2 = 5832 ways

What is the solution to the equation<br> 1/2x+3 = 2/3+1?
Alex

Answer:

x = -8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+3 = 2/3+1

Combine like terms

1/2x+3 = 2/3 + 3/3

1/2x + 3 = 5/3

Subtract 3 from each side

1/2x + 3-3 = 5/3 - 3

1/2x = 5/3 - 9/3

1/2x = -4/3

Multiply each side by 2

1/2x *2 = -4/3*2

x = -8/3

A bag contains 8 purple marbles &amp; 12 green marbles. You choose one marble out of the bag without looking.
MrRissso [65]

Answer:

1. P(P) = 8/20 = 0.4

2. P(G) = 12/20 = 0.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Number of green marbles G = 12

Number of purple marbles P = 8

Total T = 12+8 = 20

The probability that you choose a purple marble P(P) is;

P(P) = number of purple marbles/total number of marbles

P(P) = P/T = 8/20 = 0.4

P(P) = 0.4

The probability that you choose a Green marble P(G) is;

P(G) = number of Green marbles/total number of marbles

P(G) = G/T = 12/20 = 0.6

P(G) = 0.6

The velocity v and maximum height h of the water being pumped into the air are related by the equation v=\sqrt(2gh) where g is t
Whitepunk [10]

The velocity v and maximum height h of the water being pumped into the air are related by the equation

v= \sqrt{2gh}

where g = 32

(a) To find the equation that will give the maximum height of the water , solve the equation for h

v= \sqrt{2gh}

Take square root on both sides

v^2 = 2gh

Divide by 2g on both sides

\frac{v^2}{2g} = h

So maximum height of the water h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

(b) Maximum height h= 80

velocity v= 75 ft/sec

Given g = 32

h = \frac{v^2}{2g}

h = \frac{75^2}{2*32}

h= 87.89 ft

The pump withe the velocity of 75 ft/sec reaches the maximum height of 87.89 feet. 87.86 is greater than the maximum height 80 feet.

So the pump will meet the fire department needs.
