Answer:

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 18 from behind the equal sign to cancel it out. This leaves you with 2(p+1)- 18= 0.

Next you'll need to pull out the terms to work with the beginning of the problem. 2(p+1)- 18= 0 would turn into 2p - 16 = 2(p - 8).

This would leave you with 2= 0, but that's not true so continue on to the variable.

So p - 8= 0 making the answer p = 8

A taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer,

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

Yes, they are independent because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a taste test asks people from Texas and California which pasta they prefer, brand A or brand B. The table is given in the question.

A person is randomly selected from those tested.

And we have find that are being from Texas and preferring brand A independent events or not.

Firstly, we know that these two events will be independent when;

P(Texas) = P(Texas/brand A)

Now, P(Texas) = $\frac{\text{Number of people from Texas}}{\text{Total number of people}}$

= $\frac{125}{275}$ ≈ 0.45

Also, P(Texas/brand A) = $\frac{P(Texas \bigcap Brand A)}{P(Brand A)}$

= $\frac{\text{Number of people from Texas and preferring brand A}}{\text{Number of people preferring brand A}}$

= $\frac{80}{176}$ ≈ 0.45

Therefore, being from Texas and preferring brand A are independent events because P(Texas) ≈ 0.45 and P(Texas/brand A) ≈ 0.45.

Answer:

$\displaystyle T'( 2,4)$

$\displaystyle U'( 1,1)$

$\displaystyle S' ( 3,2)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we current vertices of the given triangle

$\displaystyle T( - 2,4)$
$\displaystyle U( - 1,1)$
$\displaystyle S ( - 3,2)$

remember that,

$\rm\displaystyle(x,y) \xrightarrow{ \rm reflection \: over \: y - axis}( - x,y)$

so we obtain:

$\rm\displaystyle \: T( - 2,4) \xrightarrow{ \rm reflection \: over \: y - axis}T'( 2,4)$

$\rm\displaystyle \: U( - 1,1) \xrightarrow{ \rm reflection \: over \: y - axis}U' ( 1,1)$

$\rm\displaystyle S( - 3,2) \xrightarrow{ \rm reflection \: over \: y - axis}S'( 3,2)$
