Answer:

There are 64,000 possible codes. Jillian is incorrect, since he added the possible options in each trial, instead of multiplied them(he did 40+40+40 instead of 40*40*40).

Step-by-step explanation:

From 0 to 39, there are 40 numbers.

The code has three values:

V1 - V2 - V3

When we have n trials with m possible options, the total number of opitons is:

T = m^{n}

In this question:

3 trials(values), with 40 options. So

T = 40^{3} = 64000

There are 64,000 possible codes. Jillian is incorrect, since he added the possible options in each trial, instead of multiplied them(he did 40+40+40 instead of 40*40*40).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The lock has a code that consists of 3 number

It is given that the number in the lock code can be used between 0 to 39

Thus, out of total 40 set of numbers (i.e 0-39), the numbers can be repeated.

This means for all three code numbers the opportunity of choosing a number is same  i.e. between  0-39

Now, the first digit of the code can be any number between  0-39

Like wise the second and third  digit of the code can be any number between  0-39

Thus. the possible number of codes with repetition allowed are

40 * 40* 40 = 64000

Hence, Jillian is not correct

Jillian has summed up the possible number of codes for each digit instead of multiplying it

Write the ratio 1.6 : 4 as a fraction in simplest form, with whole numbers in the numerator and denominator.
skad [1K]
1.6 : 4

1.6 is also equal to 8/5

therefore,

8/5 : 4

(8/5)/4

**get the reciprocal of the denominator (4) which is equal to 1/4**

(8/5)*(1/4)

(8/4)*(1/5)

2*(1/5)

2/5

two fifth is the answer

Find the value of p p^2x^2-12x+p+7 one of the zero is 3/2
wel

Answer:

  p = 2  or  p = -2 4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

We can substitute x=3/2 into the equation and solve for the values of p that make the result be zero.

  p^2(3/2)^2 -12(3/2) +p +7 = 0

  9/4p^2 -18 + p + 7 = 0 . . . . eliminate parentheses

  9p^2 +4p -44 = 0 . . . . . . simplify and multiply by 4

  (9p +22)(p -2) = 0 . . . . . factor

Values of p that make 3/2 be one of the zeros are ...

  p = -22/9, p = 2

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The <em>zero product rule</em> tells you a product will be zero if and only if a factor is zero. Hence the solutions to the quadratic are values of p that make the factors zero.

  9p +22 = 0   ⇒   9p = -22   ⇒   p = -22/9

  p -2 = 0   ⇒   p = 2

__

For p=2, the solution 3/2 has multiplicity 2. For p=-22/9, the other zero is x=123/242.

Solve the equation for all real solutions.<br> 15r2 – 6r – 3 = -2r
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

15r² – 6r – 3 = -2r

15r² – 6r – 3 +2r =0

15r²-4r -3 =0

delta =b² -4ac     a=15   b=-4   c=-3

delta =(-4)² - 4(15)(-3)=196 = 14²

r1 = (-b - √delta ) /2a = (4-14)/30 = -10/30 = -2/6 = -1/3

r2 = (-b + √delta ) /2a = (4+14)/30 = 18/30 = 3/5

Which pythagorean identity is correct?
Leni [432]

Answer:

The pythagorean identity that is correct is option B:

B. tan^2(theta)+1=sec^2(theta)

Step-by-step explanation:

The pythagorean identities are:

1.) sin^2(theta) + cos^2(theta) = 1

2.) tan^2(theta) + 1 = sec^2(theta)

3.) 1 + cot^2(theta) = csc^2(theta)

Then the pythagorean identity that is correct is option B:

B. tan^2(theta)+1=sec^2(theta)

How do you do prime factorization. i still dont get it.
Juliette [100K]
Prime factorization is simply making a number become simplified in the smallest term it can be in. For example 9 Can be broken down into 3 times 3. Your prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17,19 because nothing times something will give you that number besides itself and 1
