Two baseball players bat first and second in the lineup. The first batter has an on-base percentage of 0.23. The second batter h

as an on-percentage of 0.38 if someone is on base, but only 0.26 if the bases are empty. At the start of the game, what is the probability that neither player gets on base?

Answer:

The probability that neither player gets on base is 0.4824

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Both players get to base. <em>Just multiply the two probabilities together</em>:

= (<em>probability first batter gets on base</em>) x (<em>probability second batter gets on base, if the first batter gets on base</em>)

= 0.23 x 0.38

= 0.0874

2. One player gets to base. The formula here is P(A+B) =P(A) + P(B) - P(A) x P(B)

= (<em>probability first batter gets on base</em>) + (<em>probability second batter gets on base, if the first batter does not</em>) - (0.23 x 0.26)

= 0.23 + 0.26 - (0.23 x 0.26)

= 0.49 - 0.0598

= 0.4302

3. Neither player gets to base =<em> 1 - addition of the previous two cases</em>.

= 1 - (0.0874 + 0.4302)

= 1 - 0.5176

= 0.4824

Please show work for both problems
sukhopar [10]

(1) The value of x is 25

(2) The measure of ∠CBD is 60°

Explanation:

(1) The given two angles are vertical angles. Since, vertical angles are equal, we can add the two angles to determine the value of x.

Thus, we have,

5x+15=6x-10

Subtracting 5x from both sides, we have

15=x-10

Adding 10 to both sides , we have,

25=x

Thus, the value of x is 25.

(2) It is given that the measure of ∠ABC = (x+7)° and ∠CBD = (2x+14)°

Since, these two angles are supplementary angles and supplementary angles add upto 90°

Thus, we have,

2x+14+x+7=90

Simplifying, we get,

3x+21=90

       3x=69

         x=23

Thus, substituting the value of x in ∠CBD = (2x+14)° to determine its value.

2x+14=2(23)+14=46+14=60

Thus, the measure of ∠CBD is 60°

For what values of m does the graph of y = 3x2 + 7x + m have two x-intercepts?
frutty [35]

Answer:

m < \frac{49}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the discriminant Δ = b² - 4ac

Given a quadratic equation in standard form, y = ax² + bx + c

Then the value of the discriminant determines the nature of the roots

• For 2 real roots then b² - 4ac > 0

Given

y = 3x² + 7x + m ← in standard form

with a = 3, b = 7 and c = m, then

7² - (4 × 3 × m) > 0

49 - 12m > 0 ( subtract 49 from both sides )

- 12m > - 49

Divide both sides by - 12, reversing the symbol as a result of dividing by a negative quantity.

m < \frac{49}{12}

If stratified random sampling with proportional allocation is used to select a sample of 25 high​ schools, how many would be sel
gregori [183]

Answer:

02 High Schools would be selected from the stratum with a​ percent-free-lunch value of 40 less than or equals x​.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the sample size needed is 25 and total schools are 100 so this indicate 1 school in each 4 schools is to be selected. This is given as

n=\frac{n_{total}}{n_{sample}}\\n=\frac{100}{25}\\n=4

Now as the schools with percent free lunch are 8 so now

n=\frac{n_{total}}{n_{sample}}\\n=\frac{8}{2}\\n=2

So only 2 schools will be selected in this regard.
