The answer is 9/11.

<span>The addition rule is used to calculate the probability of one of the events from multiple pathways. If you want that only one of the events happens, you will use the addition rule. So, we need to calculate the probability of  two different events - the one is that the object is green, and the other is that the object is a cube.
</span>1. T<span>he probability that the object is green:
There are 22 objects in total (7 blue cubes + 4 blue spheres + 5 green cubes + 6 green spheres = 22 objects).
There are 11 green objects (</span><span>5 green cubes + 6 green spheres = 11 green objects).
So, there are </span>11 green objects out of 22 objects. Therefore, t<span>he probability that the object is green is 11/22.

</span>2. T<span>he probability that the object is the cube:
There are 22 objects in total (7 blue cubes + 4 blue spheres + 5 green cubes + 6 green spheres = 22 objects).
There are 12 cube objects (7 blue cubes + </span><span>5 green cubes).
So, there are </span>12 cube objects out of 22 objects. Therefore, t<span>he probability that the object is green is 12/22.

Now, using the addition rule, we could calculate </span>the probability that the object <span>is green or a cube:
11/22 + 12/22 = 23/22
But, we counted 5 green cubes in both events and need to subtract them:
23/22 - 5/22 = 18/22 = 9/11

Answer:

  "complete the square" to put in vertex form

Step-by-step explanation:

It may be helpful to consider the square of a binomial:

  (x +a)² = x² +2ax +a²

The expression x² +x +1 is in the standard form of the expression on the right above. Comparing the coefficients of x, we see ...

  2a = 1

  a = 1/2

That means we can write ...

  (x +1/2)² = x² +x +1/4

But we need x² +x +1, so we need to add 3/4 to the binomial square in order to make the expressions equal:

  x^2+x+1\\\\=(x^2+x+\frac{1}{4})+\frac{3}{4}\\\\=(x+\frac{1}{2})^2+\frac{3}{4}

_____

Another way to consider this is ...

  x² +bx +c

  = x² +2(b/2)x +(b/2)² +c -(b/2)² . . . . . . rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²*

  = (x +b/2)² +(c -(b/2)²)

for b=1, c=1, this becomes ...

  x² +x +1 = (x +1/2)² +(1 -(1/2)²)

  = (x +1/2)² +3/4

_____

* This process, "rewrite bx, add and subtract (b/2)²," is called "completing the square"—especially when written as (x-h)² +k, a parabola with vertex (h, k).

Marisa bought four bottles of water.Each bottle of water was 95 cents. Write an equation with the same product as the total cost
meriva

Answer:

5\times 0.76= 3.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Marisa bought four bottles

          Price of each bottle is $0.95.

Solving with the factors as given to find the total cost paid by Marisa.

Total cost= 4\ bottles\times \$ 0.95= \$ 3.8

∴ Total cost paid by Marisa is $3.8.

As given to write an equation with the same product as the total cost but different factors.

∴ Lets assume the number of bottles bought by Marisa be "5" and cost of each bottle be "x"

We already find the total cost she paid is $3.8.

Now, writing an equation with different factors, as total cost remain same.

5\times x= 3.8

Dividing both side by 5

we get x= $ 0.76

∴ The required equation is 5\times 0.76= 3.8

Levart [38]

Answer:

Subtracting 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Given:</em></u>

<em>Clara is stacking cups; she put 45 plastic cups in the first stack, 38 plastic cups in the second stack, 31 plastic cups in the third stack, and 24 plastic cups in the fourth stack. </em>

<u><em>To Find:</em></u>

<em>What kind of sequence is this?</em>

<u><em>Solve:</em></u>

<em>Let's make a table:</em>

<em />

<em>[1 stack]  45 </em>

<em>[2 stack] 38</em>

<em>[3 stack] 31</em>

<em>[4 stack] 24</em>

<em />

<em>Now all we have to do is subtract to see what each is:</em>

<em>45 - 38 = 7</em>

<em>38 - 31 = 7</em>

<em>31 - 24 = 7</em>

<em>Thus,</em>

<em>[1 stack]  45 ⇒ 7</em>

<em>[2 stack] 38 ⇒ 7 </em>

<em>[3 stack] 31 ⇒ 7 </em>

<em>[4 stack] 24 ⇒ 7 </em>

<em>Hence, each stack is going down by 7.</em>

2. An articulated truck is loaded with cylindrical containers filled with oil. The height of each container is 80cm and the diam
RoseWind [281]

The volume of each container is: 25,133 cm^{3}

Given:

height of container (h) = 80 cm

diameter of container (d) = 20 cm

radius = half of diameter = \frac{1}{2} of 20 = 10 cm

Recall:

Volume of a cylinder = \pi r^{2} h

<em>Substitute the values into the formula:</em>

Volume = \pi \times 10^{2} \times 80 = 25132.74123

Therefore, volume of each cylinder is approximately 25,133 cm^{3}

Can someone explain to me of how to do this?
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

1) 11

2) 15

Step-by-step explanation:

The bars on the sides of the numbers represent the absolute value/magnitude of the number, so you will need to remove the negative symbol if it is present in front of the number (if it is already a positive number, leave it as it is).

Example:

|-3+2| = |-1|

= 1

Hope this helps :)
