Answer:

Each package contains 500 staples

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the carton contains a total of 50 packets each containing an equal amount of staples. If the total number of staples in the packet is 25000,  we have to divide the total number of staples by the total number of packets to find out how many staples each packet has. This calculation is shown below,

\frac{25\,000}{50} =500.

Each packet contains 500 staples. The basic fact we use is the fact that each packet contains the same number of staples.

Find the angle θ between u = <7, –2> and v = <–1, 2>.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

The angle between two vectors is:

CosФ = u - v / Magnitude(u) x magnitude(v)

Magnitude of u = SQRT(7^2 + -2^2) = SQRT(49 +4) = SQRT(53)

Magnitude of v = SQRT(-1^2 +2^2) = SQRT(1 +4) = SQRT(5)

u x v = (7 x -1) + (-2 x 2) = -7 + -4 = -11

cosФ = -11 / sqrt(53) x sqrt(5)

cosФ = -11sqrt265) / 265

Ф =cos^-1(-11sqrt265) / 265)

Ф=132.51 degrees.

HURRY PLEASE what's the answer?<br> A<br> B<br> C<br> D
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

x ≤ -11.25 or x > -8.75

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph here shows a disjunction compound inequality, in which either of the statements is true. That is for the compound inequality to be true, either one or the other statement is true. The word "OR" is used in stating this inequality.

On the graph, the directed line to our left has a full circle which starts at -11.25.

This means x ≤ -11.25.

The other directed line to our right has an empty circle, and starts at -8.75.

This means x > -8.75.

✅The compound inequality representing the graph will be written as:

x ≤ -11.25 or x > -8.75

A card is drawn from a standard deck of 5252 playing cards. What is the probability that the card will be a heart or a face card
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

The probability that the card will be a heart or a face card is P=0.4231.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a standard deck of 52 cards.

In this deck, we have 13 cards that are a heart.

We also have a total of 12 face cards (4 per each suit). So there are 3 face cards that are also a heart.

To calculate the probability that a card be a heart or a face card, we sum the probability of a card being a heart and the probability of it being a face card, and substract the probability of being a heart AND a face card.

We can express that as:

P(H\,or\,F)=P(H)+P(F)-P(H\&F)\\\\P(H\,or\,F)=13/52+12/52-3/52=22/52=0.4231
