Well since the for formula for these are b × h. We are gonna do...

5 × 9 which equals 45. So your answer is 45 cubic inches

hope this helps!

Use the counting techniques from the last chapter. A bag contains three red marbles, four green ones, one fluorescent pink one,

sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

The probability that she gets all the red ones, given that she gets the fluorescent pink one, is P=0.0035 or 0.35%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Susan grabs four marbles at random.

We have to calculate the probabilities that he picks the 3 red ones, given that she already picked the fluorescent pink.

If it is given that the fluorescent pink is already picked, we are left with three red marbles, four green ones, two yellow ones, and four orange ones. A total of 13 marbles.

The probability that the second marble is red is 3 in 13.

The probability that the third marble is also red is 2 (the red marbles that are left) in 12 (the total amount of marbles left), as there is a picking without replacement.

The probability that the fourth marble is 1 in 11.

Then, the probability that the 3 red marbles are picked, is:

$P=P_1\cdot P_2\cdot P_3=\dfrac{3}{13}\cdot \dfrac{2}{12}\cdot \dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{6}{1716}=0.0035$

Answer:

$x>2$

Step-by-step explanation:

When given the following inequality;

$(x^2+x-3):(x^2-4)\geq1$

Rewrite in a fractional form so that it is easier to work with. Remember, a ratio is another way of expressing a fraction where the first term is the numerator (value over the fraction) and the second is the denominator(value under the fraction);

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}\geq1$

Now bring all of the terms to one side so that the other side is just a zero, use the idea of inverse operations to achieve this:

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}-1\geq0$

Convert the (1) to have the like denominator as the other term on the left side. Keep in mind, any term over itself is equal to (1);

$\frac{x^2+x-3}{x^2-4}-\frac{x^2-4}{x^2-4}\geq0$

Perform the operation on the other side distribute the negative sign and combine like terms;

$\frac{(x^2+x-3)-(x^2-4)}{x^2-4}\geq0\\\\\frac{x^2+x-3-x^2+4}{x^2-4}\geq0\\\\\frac{x+1}{x^2-4}\geq0$

Factor the equation so that one can find the intervales where the inequality is true;

$\frac{x+1}{(x-2)(x+2)}\geq0$

Solve to find the intervales when the equation is true. These intervales are the spaces between the zeros. The zeros of the inequality can be found using the zero product property (which states that any number times zero equals zero), these zeros are as follows;

$-1, 2, -2$

Therefore the intervales are the following, remember, the denominator cannot be zero, therefore some zeros are not included in the domain

$x\leq-2\\-2$

Substitute a value in these intervales to find out if the inequality is positive or negative, if it is positive then the interval is a solution, if it is negative then it is not a solution. This is because the inequality is greater than or equal to zero;

$x\leq-2$ -> negative

$-2$ -> neagtive

$-1\leq x$ -> neagtive

$x>2$ -> positive

Therefore, the solution to the inequality is the following;

$x>2$

You have to make a cos graph that starts its minimum and of -2, has an amplitude of 10, a period of 10 and a maximum of 18.
I decided to use a cos graph since cos graphs start at their minimum or maximum unlike a sine graph that starts halfway between the minimum and maximum. You also know the amplitude has to be 10 since 18+2=20 and 20/2=10. We were also told that the water wheel completels a rotation every 10 minutes which means the period is 10 minutes.

lets start of with a regular cos(x) graph. This starts on its maximum instead of minimum so we have to multiply it by -1 to get -cos(x) which does start on its minimum.

-cos(x) has an amplitude of 1 instead of 10, to fix that we multiply it by 10 to get -10cos(x) which has an amplitude of 10.

-10cos(x) has a period of 2π instead of 10, to fix this we multiply the x by 2π/10 to get -10cos((π/5)x) which now has a period of 10.

-10cos((π/5)x) has a minimum of -10 and maximum of 10 instead of a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18, to fix this we add 8 to -10cos((π/5)x) to get -10cos((π/5)x)+8 which does have a minimum of -2 and maximum of 18.

Therefore the answer is y=-10cos((π/5)x)+8. x being time in minutes and and y being the height in feet.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
