Answer: 10.3 pounds of CO2 is produced

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming there are 30 days in a month, if the microwave is run for 10 minutes per day, then the number of minutes for which the microwave is run in a month is

30 × 10 = 300 minutes

We would convert from minutes to hours

60 minutes = 1 hour

Therefore,

300 minutes = 300/60 = 5 hours

Also,

1000 watts = 1 kW

Therefore,

1500 watts = 1500/100 = 1.5kw

Therefore, the number of kWh is

1.5 × 5 = 7.5 kWh

If 1.37 pounds CO2 per kWh, then

If 1kWh = 1.37 pounds CO2, then

7.5 kWh = 7.5 × 1.37 = 10.3 pounds rounded to the nearest tenth

An investigative bureau uses a laboratory method to match the lead in a bullet found at a crime scene with unexpended lead cartr
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, we have 1851 bullets that we KNOW are NOT MATCHES of one another. One by one they examine two bullets at a time.

So, there are 1851 bullets but each time we choose 2.

We have, N choose K = N! / K! (N-k)!

Here, N = 1851 and K = 2

Therefore, 1851 choose 2 = 1851! / 2! (1851-2)!

                                         = 1851! / 2! * 1849!

                                         = 1712175 Possible Combinations

Out of these 653 are false positive.

The chance of getting false positive is = 658 / 1712175

                                                            = 0.000384

                                                           = 0.0384 %

Therefore, The correct option is

The chance of false positive is 0.0384% Because this probability is sufficiently small (< or = 1%) There is high confidence in the agency's forensic evidence.

If the end behavior is increasing on the left and decreasing on the right, which statement must be true about the function?
tatiyna

Answer:

The degree is even and the leading coefficient is negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the end behavior of the function is decreasing on the right, this means that x approaches positive infinity as y approaches negative infinity, which tells us that our leading coefficient is negative. Additionally, since our function is increasing on the left, then our function is even, which is symmetric to the origin.
