2 \frac{5}{6}

Working;
Start by converting both terms into improper fractions;

\frac{32}{6}-\frac{15}{6}

This gives;
\frac{17}{6}

On simplifying;
2\frac{5}{6}

Find the area of the shaded region. Round to the nearest tenth.
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

r = 8.35 ft

area of circle = πr² = 69.7225π ft²

θ = 5π/9 radians

area of unshaded segment = r²(θ-sinθ)/2 ≅ 26.51 ft²

shaded region = 69.7225π - 26.51 ≅ 192.53 ft²

Need help asap, thanks!!!ヾ(⌐■_■)ノ♪
Lelu [443]

Step-by-step explanation:

the probability of making one shot is 75% or 0.75 or 3/4.

the probability to make 2 shots is then

3/4 × 3/4 = 9/16 = 0.5625

and so on.

the probability to miss 1 shot is then 25% or 0.25 or 1/4.

the probability to make at least 4 out of 5 shots is the sum of the probability to make all 5 shots plus the probability to make 4 shots.

or the probability to miss 0 plus the probability to miss 1 shot.

anyway, we can go with the positive approach. it seems to be the same complexity as the negative approach.

the probability to make all 5 shots is

(3/4)⁵ = 3⁵/4⁵ = 243 / 1024 = 0.237304688...

the probability to e.g make the first 4 shots and miss the 5th is

(3/4)⁴×1/4 = 3⁴/4⁵ = 81 / 1024 = 0.079101563...

how many possibilities do we have to make 4 out of 5 shots ?

there is no repetition, and the sequence inside the "picked" 4 does not matter, so we need combinations :

C(5,4) = 5! / (4! × (5-4)!) = 5

so, the probability to make exactly 4 out 5 shots is

81/1024 × 5 = 405/1024 = 0.395507813...

and the total probability to make at least 4 shots is

243/1024 + 405/1024 = 648/1024 = 81/128 = 0.6328125

to control,

this plus making exactly 3 plus exactly 2 plus exactly 1 plus none must be the probability 1 (as there is no other possible outcome).

making 3 :

(3/4)³×(1/4)² = 3³/4⁵ = 27/1024

C(5,3) = 5×2 = 10

270/1024

making 2 :

3²/4⁵ = 9/1024

C(5,2) = 5×2 = 10

90/1024

making 1 :

3/1024

C(5,1) = 5

15/1024

making 0 :

1/1024

in sum

(270+90+15+1)/1024 = 376/1024

plus the 648/1024 = 1024/1024 = 1

correct.

The curve with equation y=ax^2+bx has a gradient of 3 at the point (2,-2). Find the values of a and b.
Airida [17]

Answer:

a = 2, b = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y = ax² + bx

\frac{dy}{dx} is the measure of the slope at x = a

Differentiate each term with respect to x using the power rule

\frac{d}{dx}(ax^{n} ) = nax^{n-1}

\frac{dy}{dx} = 2ax + b, hence

2ax + b = 3 at (2, - 2)

Substitute x = 2 into \frac{dy}{dx}

4a + b = 3 → (1) and substitute x = 2 into y

4a + 2b = - 2 → (2)

Subtract ( 1) from (2)

b = - 2 - 3 = - 5

Substitute b = - 5 into (1)

4a - 5 = 3 ( add 5 to both sides )

4a = 8 ( divide both sides by 4 )

a = 2
