Determine the intercepts of the line.

A box contains 5 red balls, 6 white balls and 9 black balls. Two balls are drawn at

valina [46]

Answer:

$P(Same)=\frac{61}{190}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Red = 5$

$White = 6$

$Black = 9$

Required

The probability of selecting 2 same colors when the first is not replaced

The total number of ball is:

$Total = 5 + 6 + 9$

$Total = 20$

This is calculated as:

$P(Same)=P(Red\ and\ Red) + P(White\ and\ White) + P(Black\ and\ Black)$

So, we have:

$P(Same)=\frac{n(Red)}{Total} * \frac{n(Red) - 1}{Total - 1} + \frac{n(White)}{Total} * \frac{n(White) - 1}{Total - 1} + \frac{n(Black)}{Total} * \frac{n(Black) - 1}{Total - 1}$

Note that: 1 is subtracted because it is a probability without replacement

$P(Same)=\frac{5}{20} * \frac{5 - 1}{20- 1} + \frac{6}{20} * \frac{6 - 1}{20- 1} + \frac{9}{20} * \frac{9- 1}{20- 1}$

$P(Same)=\frac{5}{20} * \frac{4}{19} + \frac{6}{20} * \frac{5}{19} + \frac{9}{20} * \frac{8}{19}$

$P(Same)=\frac{20}{380} + \frac{30}{380} + \frac{72}{380}$

$P(Same)=\frac{20+30+72}{380}$

$P(Same)=\frac{122}{380}$

$P(Same)=\frac{61}{190}$

Hey I’m struggling with number 13 so please show your work. Thx

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Because $\frac{3}{5}$ is being multiplied by S, we can divide $\frac{3}{5}$ from both sides of the equation. This will give us:

$\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$

But, that looks a bit hectic. Instead of dividing, you can multiply by the reciprocal (which is essentially how to divide fractions). So, instead of $\frac{1}{4}$ ÷ $\frac{3}{5}$ , you get:

$\frac{1}{4}$ × $\frac{5}{3}$

When multiplying fractions, remember you can just multiply straight across-- numerator x numerator, then denominator x denominator.

By doing that, you get the fraction $\frac{5}{12}$

$\frac{5}{12}$ cannot be simplified any more, so S= $\frac{5}{12}$ is your answer :)

I hope this helps

Which line segment is drawn in the figure? A.YZ B.WY C.XZ D.WZ

Dima020 [189]

The line segment shown in the figure is C. XZ. A line segment is a line that is bounded by 2 endpoints, hence the line is not infinite. As shown in the figure, only points X and Z are visibly connected. There are no visible lines connecting the other points together.

A rectangular box has a square base. The combined length of a side of the square base, and the height is 20 in. Let x be the len

aniked [119]

Answer:

a. V = (20-x) $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

b . 1185.185 $in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The height: 20 - x (in )
Let x be the length of a side of the base of the box (x>0)

a. Write a polynomial function in factored form modeling the volume V of the box.

As we know that, this is a rectangular box has a square base so the Volume of it is:

V = h * $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

<=> V = (20-x) $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

b. What is the maximum possible volume of the box?

To maximum the volume of it, we need to use first derivative of the volume.

<=> dV / Dx = -3 $x^{2}$ + 40x

Let dV / Dx = 0, we have:

-3 $x^{2}$ + 40x = 0

<=> x = 40/3

=>the height h = 20/3

So the maximum possible volume of the box is:

V = 20/3 * 40/3 *40/3

= 1185.185 $in^{3}$
