The first digit is one of {1, 3, 5, 7, 9}, and the last digit is one of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}.

If the first digit is one of {1, 3, 5} (3 choices), then the last digit is one of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} minus whatever is picked for the first digit (4 choices, and the remaining eight digits can be arranged in 8! ways, so there are 12*8! possible permutations.

If the first digit is one of {7, 9} (2 choices, then the last digit is one of {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} (5 choices), and again there are 8! ways of arranging the remaining digits, so there are 10*8! possible permutations.

Then the total number of permutations that fit the criteria is 12*8! + 10*8! = 22*8!. There are 10! total permutations that can be made overall, so the probability of randomly picking one we want is

\dfrac{22\cdot8!}{10!}=\dfrac{22}{10\cdot9}=\boxed{\dfrac{11}{45}}

A bus travels one and one half miles to a bus stop 4 times. How many miles in all has the bus traveled?
hoa [83]
First you have your two numbers: 1.5 and 4.
The question explains that they travel 1.5 miles 4 times each, meaning you multiply the two.
1.5×4=6

So, your answer is 6 miles.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

We conclude that at x = 0 and x = -1, the value of f(x) = 2ˣ - 1 and g(x) = 1/2x is the same.

Therefore, the solution to f(x) = g(x) is:

  • x = -1
  • x - 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

x                f(x) = 2ˣ - 1                  g(x) = 1/2x

-2                  -3/4                               -1

-1                    -1/2                               -1/2

0                     0                                   0

1                       1                                   1/2

2                     3                                    1

If we carefully observe, we can determine that

at x = 0, the value of f(x) = 2ˣ - 1 and g(x) = 1/2x is the same.

In other words,

at x = 0

  • f(0) = 0
  • g(0) = 0

Thus,

at x = 0

f(x) = g(x)

Also at x = -1, the value of f(x) = 2ˣ - 1 and g(x) = 1/2x is the same.

In other words,

at x = -1

  • f(-1) = -1/2
  • g(-1) = -1/2

Thus,

at x = -1

f(x) = g(x)

Summary:

Thus, we conclude that at x = 0 and x = -1, the value of f(x) = 2ˣ - 1 and g(x) = 1/2x is the same.

Therefore, the solution to f(x) = g(x) is:

  • x = -1
  • x - 0

Help I have to turn this is tomorrow and I don’t know how to do it

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the triangular base is: 19

square units

How to calculate the base area

The given parameters are:

Volume = 27.36 cubic units

Height = 2.88 unit

The volume of a triangular prism is:

V = 0.5 * B *h

Where B represents the base area.

So, we have:

27.36 = 0.5 * B * 2.88

27.36 B * 1.44 -

Solve for B

B = 19

Hence, the area of the triangular base is: 19 square units
