Because of a manufacturing error, three cans of regular soda were accidentally filled with diet soda and placed into a 12-pack.

Suppose that two cans are randomly selected from the 12-pack. (a) Determine the probability that both contain diet soda. (b) Determine the probability that both contain regular soda. Would this be unusual

Answer:

1 /22

6/11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of soda = 12

Number of diet soda in pack = 3

Number of regular soda = 12 - 3 = 9

Suppose selection is done without replacement ;

Recall : probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(selecting diet soda on 1st pick) = number of diet soda / total Number of soda in pack = 3 / 12

Diet soda left = 3 - 1 = 2

Total sodas left in pack = 12 - 1 = 11

P(selecting diet soda on 2nd pick) = 2 /11

Probability(diet soda on both picks) =

3/12 * 2/11 = 6 / 132 = 1 / 22

B.)

P(selecting regular soda on 1st pick) = number of regular / total Number of soda in pack = 9 / 12

Diet soda left = 9 - 1 = 8

Total sodas left in pack = 12 - 1 = 11

P(selecting regular soda on 2nd pick) = 8 /11

Probability(regular soda on both picks) =

9/12 * 8/11 = 72 / 132 = 12 / 22 = 6/11

Answer:

(4x+5)(-3x-1) = -12x²-19x-5

Option A:

   (-16x² + 10x - 3) + (4x² - 29x - 2) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option A is correct.

Option B:

   3(x - 5) - 2(6x² + 9x + 5) = -12x²-15x-25

   Option B is wrong.

Option C:

   2(x - 1) - 3(4x² + 7x + 1) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option C is correct.

Option D:

   (2x² - 11x - 9) - (14x² + 8x - 4) = -12x²-19x-5

   Option D is correct.

1) Find x, if 1/3 of x is 14
BartSMP [9]

"of" means multiply      and         "is" means equal

1. \frac{1}{3}x = 14

                                x = 14(3)      <em>multiply both sides by 3 to isolate "x"</em>

                                x = 42

2. \frac{1}{5}x = 14

                                x = 14(5)      <em>multiply both sides by 5 to isolate "x"</em>

                                x = 70

3. \frac{2}{5}x = 14

                                2x = 14(5)      <em>multiply both sides by 5 </em>

                                2x = 70

                                  x = 35         <em>divide both sides by 2 to isolate "x"</em>

4. \frac{7}{8}x = 14

                                7x = 14(8)      <em>multiply both sides by 8 </em>

                                7x = 112

                                  x = 16         <em>divide both sides by 7 to isolate "x"</em>

Consider the surface f (x comma y comma z )f(x,y,z)equals=negative 2 x squared plus 2 y squared minus 3 z squared plus 3 equals
trapecia [35]

Answer:

a) (8,8,-6)

b) 4x+4y+3z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

The surface is given by the equation  

f(x,y,z) = 0 where

f(x,y,z)=-2x^2+2y^2-3z^2+3

The gradient of this function is the vector

(\frac{\partial f}{\partial x},\frac{\partial f}{\partial y},\frac{\partial f}{\partial z})=(-4x,4y,-6z)

If we evaluate it in the point P = (-2,2,1) we obtain the point

(8,8,-6)

b)

The vectors with their tails at P are of the form  

(-2,2,1)-(x,y,z) = (-2-x, 2-y, 1-z)

as they must be orthogonal to the gradient, they must be orthogonal to the vector (8,8,6) so their inner product is 0

(-2-x,2-y,1-z)\cdot(8,8,6)=0\Rightarrow -16-8x+16-8y+6-6z=0\Rightarrow 4x+4y+3z=-3

and the equation of the desired plane is

4x+4y+3z = -3
