Answer:

P(red) = .3

P(yellow) = .3

75 cubes in the box

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability has to add to 1

Since the number of red cubes equals the number of yellow cubes the probability has to be the same

.4 + x+x = 1

.4 +2x = 1

2x = 1-.4

2x = .6

Divide by 2

x = .6/2

x = .3

P(red) = .3

P(yellow) = .3

We know that

P(blue) = .4 = number of blue cubes/ total number of cubes

.4 = 30/total

total = 30/.4

total = 75

What is simple interest rate if p=$4000,t=2years,and I=$320

PolarNik [594]

I=PRT
R=percetnt in decimal form
x%=x/100

I=320
T=2
P=4000
320=(4000)(x/100)(2)
320=8000(x/100)
320=80x
divide both sides by 80
4=x
answer is 4%

Apply the distributive property to create an equivalent expression. (6m -7)\cdot 4 =(6m−7)⋅4=left parenthesis, 6, m, minus, 7, r

FrozenT [24]

Answer:

$(6m-7)\cdot4$ is equivalent to 24m-28

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property enables us get rid of parentheses by multiplying the term outside by each of the term inside; a bit like algebraic expansion

It states that:

$(a+b)\cdot c = a\cdot c+ b\cdot c$

Therefore $(6m-7)\cdot4=6m\cdot4-7\cdot4=24m-28$

Thus 24m-28 is the equivalent expression

Consider the point P = (4,-1) and the line L, given by the equation y=2x+3.

3241004551 [841]

Answer:

A. y=2x-9

B. $y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Parallel lines have the same slope. That means the line y=2x+3 has the same slope as any line parallel to it. So the slope is 2.

Using m=2, substitute it and (4,-1) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y--1=2(x-4)\\y+1=2(x-4)\\y+1=2x-8\\y=2x-9$

B. Perpendicular lines have slopes which are negative reciprocals of each other. The slope of the line y=2x+3 is 2. The slope perpendicular to it is -1/2.

Using m=-1/2, substitute it and (4,-1) into the point slope form and simplify to find the y-intercept.

$y-y_1 = m(x-x_1)\\y--1=-\frac{1}{2}(x-4)\\y+1=-\frac{1}{2}(x-4)\\y+1=-\frac{1}{2}x+2\\y=-\frac{1}{2}x+1$

Find the equation of the tangent line to the curve y = 2sinx at the point (pi/6,1). The equation of this tangent line can be wri

mixas84 [53]

Y = mx + b

1) m = slope of the tangent line = derivative at the point (pi/6, 1)

Function: y = 2sinx

Derivative: y ' = 2cosx

evaluate at x = pi/6=> y ' = 2cos(pi/6) = √3

2) equation using the slope and the point (pi/6, 1)

y - 1 = √3 ( x - pi/6 )

y = √3 x - √3(pi/6) +1 =√3 x + 0.093

y = √3 x + 0.093

m = √3, b = 0.093
