Answer:

0.2601

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 19C16 = 969 ways for Lester to choose 16 of the 19 objects.

There are 12C11 = 12 ways to choose 11 vases, and 7C5 = 21 ways to choose a non-vase, for a total of (12)(21) = 252 ways to choose exactly 11 vases in 16 objects.

So, the probability of interest is ...

252/969 ≈ 0.2601

_____

nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!) ... the number of ways to choose k objects from n

The geometric sequence that tells the perimeter of each stage in the building of Koch's snowflake has a first term of 3 and a ra

kari74 [83]

An = a1 * r^(n-1)
n = term to find = 18
a1 = first term = 3
r = common ratio = 4/3
now we sub

a18 = 3 * 4/3^(18 - 1)
a18 = 3 * 4/3^17
a18 = 3 * 133
a18 = 399

What number would you add to the equation below to complete the square?x2 + 4x = 0?

julia-pushkina [17]

------------------------------------------------------------------
Equation
------------------------------------------------------------------
x² + 4x = 0

------------------------------------------------------------------
Add a constant
------------------------------------------------------------------
x² + 4x + (4/2)² - (4/2)² = 0 ← Add 2² to form perfect square

------------------------------------------------------------------
Evaluate bracket
------------------------------------------------------------------
x² + 4x + 2² - 2² = 0

------------------------------------------------------------------
Form the perfect square
------------------------------------------------------------------
(x + 2)² = 4

------------------------------------------------------------------
Square root both sides
------------------------------------------------------------------
(x+2) = $\pm$ √4

------------------------------------------------------------------
Evaluate the square root
------------------------------------------------------------------
(x+2) = $\pm$ 2

------------------------------------------------------------------
Solve x
------------------------------------------------------------------
x = 2 - 2 or x = -2 - 2

x = 0 or -4

------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The constant to add is 4 and the value of x = 0 or -4
------------------------------------------------------------------

Why is a the y-intercept of the graph of the function y=ab^x

8090 [49]

The y-intercept occurs on a graph when x = 0. Therefore on a graph of y= ab^x when x = 0, y = ab^0 = 1. Therefore the y-intercept is at the point (0,1).
Hope this helps!
