Suppose that on a true/false exam you have no idea at all about the answers to three questions. You choose answers randomly and

therefore have a 50–50 chance of being correct on any one question. Let CCW indicate that you were correct on the first two questions and wrong on the third, let WCW indicate that you were wrong on the first and third questions and correct on the second, and so forth. a. List the elements in the sample space whose outcomes are all possible sequences of correct and incorrect responses on your part. b. Write each of the following events as a set and find its probability: (i) The event that exactly one answer is correct. (ii) The event that at least two answers are correct. (iii) The event that no answer is correct.

Answer:

a.

\text{Sample Space} = \{ CCC,CCW,CWW,WWW,WWC,WCC,WCW,CWC \}

b.

(i)  1/2

(ii) 2/3

(iii) 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

The sample space is the list of all possibilities.

\text{Sample Space} = \{ CCC,CCW,CWW,WWW,WWC,WCC,WCW,CWC \}

b.

(i)

If exactly one answer is correct the favorable outcomes are

CWW , WCW , WWC.

And the probability would be 3/6 = 1/2.

(ii)

If at least two answers are correct then the favorable outcomes are

CCC,CCW,WCC,CWC

and the probability is 4/6 = 2/3.

(iii)

If  no answer is correct, the favorable outcomes are

WWW

and the probability is  1/6.

Find the equation of the quadratic function with vertex (-2,18) passing through (-5,0)?
Sliva [168]

Answer:

y-18=-2(x+2)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of the Quadratic Function

The vertex form of the quadratic function has the following equation:

y-k=a(x-h)^2

Where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola that results when plotting the function, and a is a coefficient different from zero.

It's been given the vertex of the parabola as (-2,18):

y-18=a(x+2)^2

Now substitute the point (-5,0) and find the value of a:

0-18=a(-5+2)^2

Operating:

-18=a(-3)^2

-18=9a

Solving for a:

a = -18 / 9

a = -2

Thus, the equation of the quadratic function is:

\mathbf{y-18=-2(x+2)^2}

SinA=√1-x÷√1+X<br> Find the value of cosA
Irina-Kira [14]

The value of cos A is √(1 + x²)/ (1 - x²) /√1 + x

<h3>Trigonometric ratios</h3>

It is important to note that

sin A = opposite/ hypotenuse

cos A = adjacent/ hypotenuse

Then,

opposite = \sqrt{1} - x

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{1} + x

Let's find the adjacent side using the Pythagorean theroem

(\sqrt{1} + x)^2 = (\sqrt{1 -x } )^2 + x^2

1 + x^2 = 1 - x^2 + x^2

x = \sqrt{\frac{1 + x^2}{1 -x^2} }

cos A = x/hypotenuse

cos A = \frac{\sqrt{\frac{1+x^2}{1 -x^2} } }{\sqrt{1} +x}

cos A = √(1 + x²)/ (1 - x²) /√1 + x

Thus, the value of cos A is √(1 + x²)/ (1 - x²) /√1 + x
