Jamie has a bag containing purple, pink, yellow, and blue marbles. There are a total of 40 marbles in the bag. Jamie randomly se

lects a marble from the bag and then puts it back. He repeats this process 420 times. If Jamie selected a pink marble 10 times, what is a good prediction of the number of pink marbles in the bag?

Answer:

1 pink marble

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jamie selected 10 times the pink marble in a total of 420 tries, we can assume that the proportion of pink marble in the total number of marbles is:

10 / 420 = 1/42

So to predict a good number of pink marbles in the total 40 marbles, we just need to multiply the 40 marbles by the proportion found above:

pink marble = 40 * (1/42) = 0.9524

As this number needs to be a whole number, a good assumption is that there is 1 pink marble in the 40 marbles.

Convert the polar equation to rectangular coordinates. (Use variables x and y as needed.)
Alinara [238K]
The standard conversion toolbox:
x=rcos(θ)
y=rsin(θ)

Here r=7csc(θ)
so 
x=7csc(θ)*cos(θ)=7cos(θ)/sin(θ)=7cot(<span>θ)
y=7csc(</span>θ)*sin(θ)=7sin(θ)/sin(<span>θ) = 7
therefore the rectangular coordinates are (7cot(</span><span>θ), 7)</span>

Suppose you have 3 pieces of string measuring 6 inches, 9 inches, and 12 inches. How many unique triangles can you form with the
siniylev [52]
A triangle should have 3 points and 3 sides. Let say that the point is ABC. Then the sides would be AB, AC and BC.
There are 3 strings with a different length that can be put into the sides. Assuming the string can be used once, then the possible way would be:
3!/(1+3-3)!= 3!/1!= 3*2*1= 6 ways

What is the vertex of y = x2 + 2x +2<br> O (1,-1)<br> O (2,-2)<br> O (1, 2)<br> 0 (-1, 1)
fredd [130]

Answer:

vertex = (- 1, 1 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parabola in standard form

y = ax² + bx + c ( a ≠ 0 )

Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is

x = - \frac{b}{2a}

y = x² + 2x + 2 ← is in standard form

with a = 1 and b = 2 , then

x = - \frac{2}{2} = - 1

substitute x = - 1 into the equation for y- coordinate of vertex

y = (- 1)² + 2(- 1) + 2 = 1 - 2 + 2 = 1

vertex = (- 1, 1 )
