Two chess players, A and B, are going to play 7 games. Each game has three possibleoutcomes: a win for A (which is a loss for B)

, a draw (tie), and a loss for A (which isa win for B). A win is worth 1 point, a draw is worth 0.5 points, and a loss is worth 0points.(A) How many possible outcomes for the individual games are there, such that overallplayer A ends up with 3 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses?(B) How many possible outcomes for the individual games are there, such that A endsup with 4 points and B ends up with 3 points?(C) Now assume that they are playing a best-of-7 match, where the match will end assoon as either player has 4 points. For example, if after 6 games the score is 4 to 2 infavor of A, then A wins the match and they don’t play a 7th game. How many possibleoutcomes for the individual games are there, such that the match lasts for 7 games andA wins by a score of 4 to 3?

Answer:

A) the possible outcomes for individual game is 210 games.

B) The possible outcome for this is 357 games.

C) Then the Possible Games are 267 games.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Total number of individual games are 7 in which A ends up with 3 wins which give 4 remaining games. then there are two draw games from them. and in the end the remaining games are losses so,we useformula for combination:

                       (7C3)*(4C2)=210 \ games

B) Now Player A has 4 point that gives us 5 possibilities until we reach 7 games. Similarly B have 3 points which is same as player A gives us 5 possibilities until we reach 7 games. thus those two cases for player A and Player B can be stated as:

           (7C3)+(7C3)*(4C2)+(7C1)*(6C6)+(7C2)*(5C4)=357\  games

C) Lets say that player A ahs 4 points and player B has 3 points and all seven games have been played so.

c1) If player A has 4 wins and 3 losses then last win have to be in 7th match thus:the answer is (6C3).

c2) If player A has 3 win, 2 draws and 3 losses thus it means that final match cannot be a loss thus the answer is (6C2)*(5C3).

c3) Now lastly if player A has 1 win and 5 draws we can arrange them arbitrarily thus the answer here is (7C1).

c4) now If player A has 2 wins, 4 draws and 2 losses thus answer is (6C1)*(6C2)

Sum of all the cases is

               (6C3)+(6C2)*(5C3)+(7C1)+(6C1)*(6C2)=267\ games

Alex

Answer:

<em>.125 or 1/8</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is looking for the difference divided by the long ride. The long ride is 6 1/4 miles, so now we need to find the difference.

In order to do this, we take the larger distance and subtract the smaller distance.

We would take (Tip: Use decimals when you can. They are easier to work with ) 6.25 - 5.5 and we get .75 or 3/4 of a mile.

Now, we put .75 over 6.25 and simplify.

.125 or 1/8

Solve systems of three variable equations - how to do :(​
krek1111 [17]

a= 6-2b-3c

then put that equation inside the first one and then the second one

you get -6*(6-2b-3c)+2b-3c=23

and 5*(6-2b-3c)+4b-3c=-12

14b-15c=59

14b-18c=18/*(-1)

A sled is being held at rest on a slope that makes an angle theta with the horizontal. After the sled is released, it slides a d
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

μ =  Sin θ * d₁ / (d₂ - Cos θ*d₁)

d₂ = (d₁*Sin θ) / μ

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We apply The work-energy theorem

W = ΔE

W = - Ff*d

Ff = μ*N = μ*m*g

<em>Distance 1:</em>

- Ff*d₁ = Ef - Ei

⇒  - (μ*m*g*Cos θ)*d₁ = (Kf+Uf) - (Ki+Ui) = (Kf+0) - (0+Ui) = Kf - Ui

Kf = 0.5*m*vf² = 0.5*m*v²

Ui = m*g*h = m*g*d₁*Sin θ

then

- (μ*m*g*Cos θ)*d₁ = 0.5*m*v² - m*g*d₁*Sin θ  

⇒   - μ*g*Cos θ*d₁ = 0.5*v² - g*d₁*Sin θ   <em>(I)</em>

 

<em>Distance 2:</em>

<em />

- Ff*d₂ = Ef - Ei

⇒  - (μ*m*g)*d₂ = (0+0) - (Ki+0) = - Ki

Ki = 0.5*m*vi² = 0.5*m*v²

then

- (μ*m*g)*d₂ = - 0.5*m*v²

⇒   μ*g*d₂ = 0.5*v²     <em>(II)</em>

<em />

<em>If we apply (I) + (II)</em>

- μ*g*Cos θ*d₁ = 0.5*v² - g*d₁*Sin θ

μ*g*d₂ = 0.5*v²

 ⇒ μ*g (d₂ - Cos θ*d₁) = v² - g*d₁*Sin θ   <em>  (III)</em>

Applying the equation (for the distance 1) we get v:

vf² = vi² + 2*a*d = 0² + 2*(g*Sin θ)*d₁   ⇒   vf² = 2*g*Sin θ*d₁ = v²

then (from the equation <em>III</em>) we get

μ*g (d₂ - Cos θ*d₁) = 2*g*Sin θ*d₁ - g*d₁*Sin θ

⇒  μ (d₂ - Cos θ*d₁) = Sin θ * d₁

⇒   μ =  Sin θ * d₁ / (d₂ - Cos θ*d₁)

b)

If μ is a known value

d₂ = ?

We apply The work-energy theorem again

W = ΔK   ⇒   - Ff*d₂ = Kf - Ki

Ff = μ*m*g

Kf = 0

Ki = 0.5*m*v² = 0.5*m*2*g*Sin θ*d₁ = m*g*Sin θ*d₁

Finally

- μ*m*g*d₂ = 0 - m*g*Sin θ*d₁   ⇒   d₂ = Sin θ*d₁ / μ

Solve the differential equation y prime equals the product of 2 times x and the square root of the quantity 1 minus y squared .
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

1. y = sin(x²+C)

2. see below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. \frac{dy}{dx} = 2x\sqrt{1-y^2}

separation of variables

\frac{dy}{\sqrt{1-y^2} } = 2xdx

integration both sides\int\frac{dy}{\sqrt{1-y^2} } = \int2xdx

you should get :

sin^{-1} (y) = x^2+C remember constant of integration!!

2. y = sin(x²+C)

3 = sin(0+C)

y(0) = 3 does not have a solution because our sin graph is not shifted vertically or multiplied by a factor whose absolute value is greater than 1, so our range is [-1,1] and 3 is not part of this range
