Answer:

-1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the midpoint formula is [for the x-coordinate per say] x = 1/2x1 + 1/2x2. If we want to find a point that lies 1/4th of the way we use x = 3/4x1 + 1/4x1. How? Because the point lies 1/4th from one endpoint and 3/4th from the other.

x = 3/4x1 + 1/4x2,

x = 3/4(-3) + 1/4(2) = -9/4 + 2/4 = -7/4

= - 1.75

--- There is an easier way to do it though, but it is really vague so you should not use it. We can form a triangle with MN being the hypotenuse. What would the length of the legs be? They would be 6 and 5. Now let's form a triangle 1/4th of that. 6/4  = 1.5  and 5/4 = 1.25. If you look at the diagram, start from point N move up 1.5 units and over 1.25 forming our mini triangle. You can see the x-axis has a value of -1.75.

An unfair coin with​ Pr[H] = 0.2 is flipped. If the flip results in a​ head, a marble is selected at random from a urn containin
satela [25.4K]
Normally when dealing with coins the probability of getting heads or tails is 0.5 each. However in this case since its an unfair coin, the probability of getting heads is 0.2. 
H - head 
T - tails
R - red marble
pr (H) = 0.2
urn
6 red and 4 blue
pr (T)   = 0.8
urn
3 red and 5 blue

when heads is obtained 
red - 6/10 -0.6
blue - 4/10 - 0.4
therefore when multiplying with 0.2 probability of getting heads
pr (R ∩ H) red - 0.6*0.2 = 0.12

when tails is obtained 
red - 3/8 - 0.375
blue - 5/8 - 0.625
when multiplying with 0.8 probability of getting tails
pr (R ∩ T) red - 0.375 * 0.8 = 0.3

using bayes rule the answer can be found out, 
the following equation is used;
pr (H | R) = pr (R ∩ H) / {pr (R ∩ H) + pr (R ∩ T)}
               = 0.12 / (0.12 + 0.3)
               = 0.12 / 0.42
               = 0.286
the final answer is 0.286

When solving p^2 + 5 = 8p - 7. Kate wrote p^2 + 12 = 8p. The property she used was:
spayn [35]

Answer:

4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Because they just added the same equality. And when you move the -7 over the equal sign it makes it positive so it would be p^2 + 5 + 7 = 8p and that makes it p^2 + 12 = 8p

For what value of a does (1/9)a+1 =81a+1 272-a?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

-4

Step-by-step explanation:

\left( \dfrac{1}{9}\right)^{a+1}= 81^{a+1}\cdot 27^{2-a}\\\\\\(3^{-2})^{a+1}=(3^4)^{a+1}\cdot (3^3)^{2-a} \\\\\\3^{-2a-2}=3^{4a+4}\cdot 3^{6-3a} \\\\\\3^{-2a-2}=3^{a+10} \\\\\\-2a-2=a+10 \\\\\\-3a=12 \\\\\\a=-4

Hope this helps!
