In a class of students, the following data table summarizes how many students passed a test and complete the homework due the da

y of the test. What is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test or completed the homework?
Passed the test Failed the test Total
Completed the homework 15 2 17
Did not complete the homework 3 7 10
Total 18 9 27

20 / 27 is the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test or completed the homework.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

To find the probability that a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test or complete the homework :

Let us take,

Event A ⇒ a student chosen randomly from the class passed the test
Event B ⇒ a student chosen randomly from the class complete the homework

We need to find out P (A or B) which is given by the formula,

⇒ P (A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∪B)

<u>From the given table of data,</u>

The total number of students in the class = 27 students.
The no.of students passed the test ⇒ 15+3 = 18 students.

P(A) = No.of students passed / Total students in the class

P(A) ⇒ 18 / 27

The no.of students completed the homework ⇒ 15+2 = 17 students.

P(B) = No.of students completed the homework / Total students in the class

P(B) ⇒ 17 / 27

The no.of students who passes the test and completed the homework = 15 students.

P(A∪B) = No.of students both passes and completes the homework / Total

P(A∪B) ⇒ 15 / 27

Therefore, to find out the P (A or B) :

⇒ P(A) + P(B) - P(A∪B)

⇒ (18 / 27) + (17 / 27) - (15 / 27)

⇒ 20 / 27

∴ The P (A or B) is 20/27.

Estimating value of √37.

We know that

$6^{2} = 36$ and $7^{2} =49$ , so

6 < √37 < 7

If we take the average of 6 and 7, we get

$\frac{6+7}{2} = \frac{13}{2} = 6.5$

Since, $6.5^{2} = 42.25$

6 < √37 < 6.5

If we take the average of 6 and 6.5 , we get

$\frac{6+6.5}{2} = \frac{12.5}{2} = 6.25$

Since, $6.25^{2} = 39.0625$

6 < √37 < 6.25

If we take the average of 6 and 6.25 , we get

$\frac{6+6.25}{2} = \frac{12.25}{2} = 6.125$

Since, $6.125^{2} = 37.515625$

6 < √37 < 6.125

If we take the average of 6 and 6.125 , we get

$\frac{6+6.125}{2} = \frac{12.125}{2} = 6.0625$

Since, $6.0625^{2} = 36.75390625$

6.0625 < √37 < 6.125

If we take the average of 6.0625 and 6.125 , we get

$\frac{6.0625+6.125}{2} = \frac{12.125}{2} = 6.09375$

Since, $6.09375^{2} = 37.1337890625$

6.0625 < √37 < 6.09375

If we take the average of 6.0625 and 6.09375 , we get

$\frac{6.0625+6.09375}{2} = \frac{12.15625}{2} = 6.078125$

Since, $6.078125^{2} = 36.943603515625$

6.078125 < √37 < 6.09375

If we take the average of 6.078125 and 6.09375 , we get

$\frac{6.078125+6.09375}{2} = \frac{12.171875}{2} = 6.0859375$

Since, $6.0859375^{2} = 37.03863525390625$

Therefore,

√37 ≈ 6.0859375.

And if we round it to the nearest tenth, we get

√37 ≈ 6.1

Locating √37 on number line.

In order to locate √37 on number line first draw a line 0 to 6 on number line.

Then draw a perpendicular line segment of 1 unit on number 6 on number line.

Join the number 0 on the number line by the top point of perpendicular line segment on number 6 we drew in above step.

Finally, draw a curve by taking radius as Hypotenuse of the right trinagle form in the diagram shown.

The curve would cut the number line exactly at √37 on number line.

Help What is the graph???

marin [14]

We are given

$y=\frac{x^2-4x+3}{x^2-9}$

Vertical asymptotes:

Firstly, we will factor numerator and denominator

we get

$y=\frac{(x-1)(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+3)}$

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, we will only set x+3 to 0

and then we can find vertical asymptote

$x+3=0$

$x=-3$

Hole:

We can see that (x-3) is common in both numerator and denominator

so, hole will be at x-3=0

$x=3$

Horizontal asymptote:

We can see that degree of numerator is 2

degree of denominator is also 2

for finding horizontal asymptote, we find ratio of leading coefficients of numerator and denominator

and we get

y=1

now, we can draw graph

Solve the proportions

DanielleElmas [232]

Do cross multiply or butterfly. For example first one. 18/x=6/10 So cross multiply 18×10 =6x 180=6x Divide both sides by 6 to get x alone 180÷6=30 So x =30 Do the same to rest
