Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If J can paint a room in 3 hours, in 1 hour she gets \frac{1}{3} of the job done.

If A can paint a room in 4 hours, in 1 hour she gets \frac{1}{4} of the job done. We need to find out how long it takes them if they paint together. The equation for this is:

\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{x} where x is the number of hours it takes them to get the job done together. Multiply everything through by 12x to get

4x + 3x = 12 so

7x = 12 and

x = 1.7 hours to get the room painted together.

F(x) = 2^x; h(x) = x^3 + x + 8

Table


x      f(x) =  2^x             h(x) = x^3 + x + 8

0      2^0 = 1                0  + 0 + 8 = 8

1     2^1 = 2                 1^3 + 1 + 8 = 10

2      2^2 = 4                2^3 + 2 + 8 = 8 + 2 + 8 = 18

3      2^3 = 8                3^3  + 3 + 8 = 27 + 3 + 8 = 38

4      2^2 = 16              4^3 + 4 + 8 = 76

10    2^10 = 1024       10^3  +10 + 8 = 1018

 9      2^9 =   512        9^3 + 9 + 8 = 729 + 9 + 8 = 746

Bob and will toss two coins. if both coins come up heads, bob pays will $6. will pays bob $2 otherwise. what is the expected val
Helga [31]
Each coin has a head and a tail, therefore when you toss two coins, you have 4 possible outcomes. You have two heads in only one of these outcomes, while the other three have at least one tail.

The expected value of the game is the price paid/gained times the probability of loss/victory:

E = (1 / 4) · (-6) + (3 / 4) · (2)
   = -3 / 2 + 3 / 2
   = 0

Bob expects to tie with Will.

What does find the constant rate of change mean?
natulia [17]

The change of the cost changes when the pounds of ham changes. When the pounds of ham is 0, it costs 0 dollars. When the pounds of ham is 3, it costs 12 dollars. The cost changes consistently with the pounds of ham. They change together. Every time the pounds of ham goes up by 3, the cost goes up by 12.
