Answer:

=-2x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\cdot \:8-2x+\left(5+7\right)\\\mathrm{Remove\:parentheses}:\quad \left(a\right)=a\\=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\cdot \:8-2x+5+7\\\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\cdot \:8=2\\\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\cdot \:8\\\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2=\frac{1}{2^2}\\\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^2\\\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \left(\frac{a}{b}\right)^c=\frac{a^c}{b^c}\\=\frac{1^2}{2^2}\\\mathrm{Apply\:rule}\:1^a=1\\1^2=1\\=\frac{1}{2^2}\\=8\cdot \frac{1}{2^2}

\mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\quad \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c}\\=\frac{1\cdot \:8}{2^2}\\\mathrm{Multiply\:the\:numbers:}\:1\cdot \:8=8\\=\frac{8}{2^2}\\\mathrm{Factor}\:8:\quad 2^3\\\mathrm{Factor\:}8=2^3\\=\frac{2^3}{2^2}\\\mathrm{Cancel\:}\frac{2^3}{2^2}:\quad 2\\\frac{2^3}{2^2}\\\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{x^a}{x^b}=x^{a-b}\\\frac{2^3}{2^2}=2^{3-2}\\=2^{3-2}\\\mathrm{Subtract\:the\:numbers:}\:3-2=1\\=2\\=2-2x+5+7\\Group\:like\:terms\\=-2x+2+5+7

\mathrm{Add\:the\:numbers:}\:2+5+7=14\\=-2x+14

Question d:

(D) Find the probability of F'nA'

Answer:

0.4140

0.7619

0.2381

0.9576

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Female in fatal accident P(F) = 0.2805

Driver is 24 years or less P(A) = 0.1759

Driver is female and 24 years or less P(FnA) = 0.0424

A.) Find the probability of FUA.

P(FUA) = P(F) + P(A) - P(FnA)

= 0.2805 + 0.1759 - 0.0424

= 0.4140

(b) Find the probability of F'UA.

P(F'UA) = 1 - P(F) + P(FnA)

= 1 - 0.2805 + 0.0424

= 0.7619

C.) P(FnA') = 1 - P(F'UA)

= 1 - 0.7619

= 0.2381

(d) Find the probability of F'nA'

P(F'nA') = (FnA)' = 1 - (FnA)

= 1 - 0.0424

= 0.9576

HELP ASAP PLZ
marishachu [46]

Answer:

There are 604,800 possible permutations.

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the digits are chosen is important, which means that the permutations formula is used to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:

P_{(n,x)} = \frac{n!}{(n-x)!}

In this question:

7 digits from a set of 10(10 digits to 0-9). So

P_{(10,7)} = \frac{10!}{(10-7)!} = 604800

There are 604,800 possible permutations.

the measure of angle s = 30 degrees, the measure of arc RS = 84 degrees and line RU is tangent to the circle at R. Find m angle
Paul [167]
Let O be the center of a circle. If <span>the measure of arc RS is 84 degrees, then m∠SOR=84^{0}. The triangle SOR is isoscales (because SO=OR as radii), so m∠RSO=m∠ORS=(180^{0}-84^{0}):2=48^{0}.
</span>
Line RU is tangent to the circle in point R, this means that m∠ORU=90^{0}.
Consider the triangle SRU. m∠RSU=30^{0}  and m∠SRU=48^{0}+90^{0}=138^{0}, then m∠RUS=180^{0}-30^{0}-138^{0}=12^{0}.
ANSWER: Correct choice B - 12^{0}.
