Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Think of drawing 1 student at a time without replacement.

First drawing:

p(boy) = 6/10

Second drawing:

p(boy) = 5/9

Third drawing:

p(boy) = 4/8

p(3 boys) = 6/10 * 5/9 * 4/8 = 3/5 * 5/9 * 1/2 = 3/18 = 1/6

The equation of the function h is h... PLEASE HELP MATH

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

Part A) $h(4) -m(16)=-4$

Part B) The distance between the y-intercepts is equal to 4 units

Part C) The value of h(x) will always be greater than the value of m(x) for any value of x

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) What is the value of h(4) -m(16)

we have

$h(x)=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)^2$

For x=4

$h(4)=\frac{1}{2}(4-2)^2=2$

Find the equation of the line m(x)

Find the slope

take the points

(8,2) and (12,4)

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute

$m=\frac{4-2}{12-8}$

$m=\frac{2}{4}$

$m=\frac{1}{2}$

Find the equation of the line in slope intercept form

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=\frac{1}{2}$

$point\ (8,2)$

substitute

$2=\frac{1}{2}(8)+b$

solve for b

$b=-2$

$y=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

therefore

$m(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

Find m(16)

$m(16)=\frac{1}{2}(16)-2=6$

$h(4) -m(16)=2-6=-4$

Part B) we know that

The y-intercept is the value of y when the value of x is equal to zero

Find the y-intercept of h(x)

For x=0

$h(0)=\frac{1}{2}(0-2)^2=2$

Find the y-intercept of m(x)

For x=0

$m(0)=\frac{1}{2}(0)-2=-2$

therefore

The distance between the y-intercepts is equal to 2-(-2)=4 units

Part C)

Graph both equations

$h(x)=\frac{1}{2}(x-2)^2$

$m(x)=\frac{1}{2}x-2$

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure

The value of h(x) will always be greater than the value of m(x) for any value of x

Answer:

the answer is 40.1 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$\cos( \alpha ) = adjacent \div hypotenuse$

The adjacent in the triangle is 23cm and the Alpha is 55 degrees, so just insert the formula to find the adjacent which is x .

Which shows a difference of squares?

d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

The equations shows a difference of squares are:

Step-by-step explanation:

the difference of two squares is a squared number subtracted from another squared number, it has the general from Ax² - By²

We will check the options to find which shows a difference of squares.

1) 10y²- 4x²

The expression is similar to the general form, so the equation represents a difference of squares.

It can be factored as (√10 y + 2x )( √10 y - 2x)

2) 6y²- x²

The expression is similar to the general form, so the equation represents a difference of squares.

It can be factored as (√6y + x )( √6y - x)

3) 8x²−40x+25

The expression is not similar to the general form, so the equation does not represent a difference of squares.

4) 64x²-48x+9

The expression is not similar to the general form, so the equation does not represent a difference of squares.
