Consider an experiment where we ask what type of car – either domestic (e.g., Chevrolet, Ford, Chrysler, etc.), foreign built ab

road (e.g. a Toyota built in Japan) or foreign built in the U.S. (e.g., a Toyota built in Kentucky) – and the style (sedan, hatchback, truck or SUV) of the automobiles driven by 20 different people. How many outcomes are in the sample space?

Answer:

12^{20} outcomes for this sample space (under some considerations)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the multiplication principle.

If a first part of an experiment can happen in n1 ways, a second part of an experiment can happen in n2 ways , . . . , a i - part of an experiment can happen in ni ways, then the total outcomes for the all the experiment are

(n1) x (n2) x ... x (ni)

In this exercise n1 = domestic

n1 is the total classes for domestic category

(Let's suppose n1 = 3 because of Chevrolet, Ford and Chrysler)

n2 = 1 (Also supposing we only have ''a Toyota built in Japan'' category for n2)

n3 = 1 (Also supposing we only have ''A Toyota built in Kentucky'' category for n3)

n4 = 4 (Also supposing we only have ''sedan,hatchback, truck or SUV'' category for n4

The possible outcomes for one person in the experiment are

(Domestic).(ForeignBuiltAbrod).(ForeignBuiltInTheU.S).(Style)

Where what it is brackets are the possible categories for that classification.

n1.n2.n3.n4=3.1.1.4=12

We have 20 different people then 12^{20} are the possible outcomes sample space

In the sample space there are 12^{20} outcomes if we consider that we have 3 types of domestic car, 1 type of foreign car built abroad,1 type of foreign car built in the U.S and 4 differents styles for this 20 different people.

Find the X COORDINATE OF THE intersection of 9x - 6y = 12 and 3x + 2y =8
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a System of linear equations, the solution of the system is the point (x,y) in which the lines intersect, where "x" is the x-coordinate and "y" is the y-coordinate.

Having the following System of equations:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {3x + 2y =8}} \right.

You can use the Elimination method to find the value of "x":

-Multiply the second equation by 3.

- Add the equations.

- Solve for "x".

Then, you get:

\left \{ {{9x - 6y = 12} \atop {9x +6y =24}} \right.\\.......................\\18x=36\\\\x=\frac{36}{18}\\\\x=2

Samuel filled the glasses shown below completely with water. The total amount of water that Samuel poured into the glasses is 60
Rama09 [41]
The height of the cylinder (glass 1) we call h so the volume is 4πh cc.
The volume of the cone is ⅓×2.5²×6π=12.5π cc.
If we divide 60 by π we get 19.11 cc approx.
So 4h+12.5=19.11, 4h=6.61 cc and h=1.7 cm approx, answer 2.
