What is the intersection of a and b if A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5} and B = {3, 4, 5}?

Fill in the blank in the sentence below with the correct term. The _________ of the numbers -4 and 4 is 4

Ray Of Light [21]

Answer:

Absolute value

Step-by-step explanation:

Absolute value is how many numbers it takes to get back to zero therefore it can never be negative, I think the term absolute value fits the blank perfectly

Suppose a bag contains 4 white chips and 6 black chips. What is the probability of randomly choosing a white chip, not replacing

Marysya12 [62]

There are 10 chips altogether. 4 of them are white.
4/10 is the chance of lifting out a white chip
There are 3 of them left and 9 chips altogehter.
4/10 * 3/9
12/90
4/30
2/15

Comment
(my edit) it is not that 2/15 is wrong (although it is not entirely right).
1/3 is the correct answer if you assume that what happened during the first draw has nothing to do with what will happen on the second. It is like saying if you throw 11 heads in a row with a fair coin, what are the chances of throwing a heads on the 12th throw? The answer is 1/2. That is the same kind of question you have asked.

The two of us who have responded have really responded to what are the chances of drawing 2 white chips. The question really does not restrict us in a way that prevents us from saying that. I'll stick with
B <<<< answer
but I think it would be nice if the writer of the question made it clear that 1/3 should be the proper answer. I am glad you came back and posted the right answer. It makes me think.

The semi right answer is B <<<<----

If my reasoning bothers anybody, I'll reedit again. I'm only leaving it because sometimes a mistake is more instructive than a given answer.

Setting:

nata0808 [166]

A. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 students as they are going to leave the school, it is not considered to be a random sample. It is because a random sample is when a set is taken from a population. Mr. Kent interviewed the 54 who are going to leave, meaning, he didn't take a set out of that 54, he took all of them. So it is not a random sample.

b. The question that Mr. Kent asked is considered to be a leading question, so it does not seem biased.

c. If there are 54 respondents.
51 = yes, the rest is no.
= 54 - 51 = 3
= 3 is now divided to 54 = 3/54
= giving an answer of 0.0555
= 0.0555 x 100
= 5.6%
= The percent of responses that says 'no' is 5.6%

jabu left town A to travel to town B at 6:00 a.m. he drove at an average speed of 80km/h. At 8.30a.m. Sipho left town A to trave

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

Sipho catches up Jabu at 6:30 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Jabu left town A to travel to town B at 6:00 a.m. he drove at an average speed of 80km/h.

At 8:30 am, when Sipho leaves, we will have traveled 2.5 hours at 80 km/h, so he will be 80*2.5 = 200 km ahead.

From then, his position will be given by:

$J(t) = 200 + 80t$

Sipho left town A to travel to town B. He drove at an average speed of 100 km/h.

His position will be given by:

$S(t) = 100t$

At what time will Sipho catch up jabu?

He will catch up in t hours, and t is found when:

$S(t) = J(t)$

So

$100t = 200 + 80t$

$20t = 200$

$t = \frac{200}{20} = 10$

He will catch up 10 hours after 8:30 am, that is, 6:30 pm.

Sipho catches up Jabu at 6:30 pm

Write the equation of each line using the given information.

Marat540 [252]

A. The equation of the line is y = -0.2 x + 1.9

B. The equation of the line is y = 4 x + 3

C. The equation of the line is y = -8

D. The equation of the line is y = 2 x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is y = m x + b, where

m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept

The formula of the slope of a line which passes through points $(x_{1},y_{1})$ and $(x_{2},y_{2})$ is $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$
The slope of a horizontal line whose equation y = b is zero
The y-intercept means the line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , b)

A.

∵ The line passes through points (2 , 1.5) and (-5 , 36.5)

∴ $x_{1}$ = 2 and $x_{2}$ = -5

∴ $y_{1}$ = 1.5 and $y_{2}$ = 36.5

∵ $m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

∴ $m=\frac{-5-2}{36.5-1.5}=\frac{-7}{35}=\frac{-1}{5}$

∴ m = -0.2

∵ y = m x + b

∵ m = -0.2

∴ y = -0.2 x + b

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates of

one of the two given points

∵ x = 2 and y = 1.5

∴ 1.5 = -0.2(2) + b

∴ 1.5 = - 0.4 + b

- Add 0.4 to both sides

∴ 1.9 = b

∴ y = -0.2 x + 1.9

The equation of the line is y = -0.2 x + 1.9

B.

∵ m = 4

∵ y = m x + b

∴ y = 4 x + b

∵ Point (3 , 15) lies on the line

- To find b substitute x and y in the equation by the coordinates

of the given point

∵ x = 3 and y = 15

∴ 15 = 4(3) + b

∴ 15 = 12 + b

- Subtract 12 from both sides

∴ 3 = b

∴ y = 4 x + 3

The equation of the line is y = 4 x + 3

C.

∵ The line has the same slope of line y = 1

- The line whose equation y = 1 is a horizontal line

∵ The slope of the line y = 1 is zero because it is a horizontal line

∴ m = zero

∵ y = m x + b

∴ The equation of the line is y = (0)x + b

∴ y = b

∵ The line passes through point (3 , -8)

- In the horizontal line the y-coordinates of all point lie on the line

are equal

∴ The line intersect the y-axis at point (0 , -8)

∴ b = -8

∴ y = -8

The equation of the line is y = -8

D.

∵ m = 2

∵ y-intercept is at point (0 , 4)

∴ b = 4

∵ y = m x + b

∴ y = 2 x + 4

The equation of the line is y = 2 x + 4
