Let U = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}, A = {1,3,5,7,9}, B = {2,4,6,8,10} and C = {1,2,3,4} find (i) U' ii) A∩A' iii) A – ( B U C) iv) A

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

(i) U' = Φ

(ii) A∩A' = Φ

(iii) A – ( B U C) = {5,7,9}

(iv) A' U ( B U C ) = {2,4,6,8,10}

(v) A' U ( B' ∩ C') = {2,4,5,6,7,8,9,10}

The area of a square for on a scale drawing of 100 square centimeters and the scale drawing to 1 cm: 2 feet what is the area of

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

1. $\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}$ ; 2. $\boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the area of the floor

If the area A₁ of a square floor on the scale drawing is 100 cm², the length of a side is 10 cm.

The side length l of the actual floor is

l = 10 cm × (2 ft/1 cm) = 20 ft

The area A₂ of the floor is

A = l² = (20 ft)² = $\boxed{\text{400 ft}^{2}}\\$

Step 2. Calculate the area ratios

We must express both areas in the same units.

Let's express the area of the room in square centimetres.

l = 20 ft × (12 in/1 ft) = 240 in

l = 240 in × (2.54 cm/1 in) = 609.6 cm

A₂ = l² = (609.6 cm)² = 371 612 cm²

The area A₁ on the scale drawing is 100 cm².

The ratio of the areas is

$\frac{A_{1}}{ A_{2}} = \frac{100}{371612} = \frac{1 }{3716}\\$

The ratio of the area in the drawing to the actual area is $\boxed{\frac{1}{3716}}$

What are the solutions?<br>8x^2-12x-23=-5

erastova [34]

Answer:

x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x = 3/4 - (3 sqrt(5))/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

8 x^2 - 12 x - 23 = -5

Divide both sides by 8:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 - 23/8 = -5/8

Add 23/8 to both sides:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 = 9/4

Add 9/16 to both sides:

x^2 - (3 x)/2 + 9/16 = 45/16

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 3/4)^2 = 45/16

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 3/4 = (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x - 3/4 = -(3 sqrt(5))/4

Add 3/4 to both sides:

x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x - 3/4 = -(3 sqrt(5))/4

Add 3/4 to both sides:

Answer: x = 3/4 + (3 sqrt(5))/4 or x = 3/4 - (3 sqrt(5))/4

Matt Bonner has 8 dimes, 9 pennies, and 4 quarters in his pocket. If each coin is equally likely to be pulled out of his pocket

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

B. 0.602%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is essentially (# times specific event will occur) / (# times general event will occur). Here, we have a few specific events: draw a quarter, draw a second quarter, draw a penny, and draw another penny. The general event will just be the number of coins there are to choose from.

The probability that the first draw is a quarter will be 4 / (4 + 8 + 9) = 4/21.

Since we've drawn one now, there's only 21 - 1 = 20 total coins left. The probability of drawing a second quarter is: (4 - 1) / (21 - 1) = 3/20.

The probability of drawing a penny is: 9 / (20 - 1) = 9/19.

The probability of drawing a second penny is: (9 - 1) / (19 - 1) = 8/18.

Multiply these four probabilities together:

(4/21) * (3/20) * (9/19) * (8/18) = 864 / 143640 ≈ 0.602%

The answer is B.
