Answer:

Pr = \frac{2}{9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A roll of two dice

Required

Probability of getting a sum of 8

First, we list out the sample space

S =\{(1, 1) (1, 2) (1, 3) (1, 4) (1, 5) (1, 6),(2, 1) (2, 2) (2, 3) (2, 4) (2, 5) (2, 6), (3, 1) (3, 2) (3, 3)(3, 4) (3, 5) (3, 6), (4, 1) (4, 2) (4, 3) (4, 4) (4, 5) (4, 6),(5, 1) (5, 2) (5, 3) ,(5, 4) ,(5, 5) ,(5, 6),

(6, 1) (6, 2) (6, 3) (6, 4) (6, 5) (6, 6)\}

The total is:

n(S) = 36

From the sample space, the outcomes that give a sum of 8 are:

Sum  =\{(2, 6), (3, 5),(4,4),(5,3),(6,2)\}

The total is:

n(Sum) = 8

So, the probability is:

Pr = \frac{n(Sum)}{n(S)}

Pr = \frac{8}{36}

Pr = \frac{2}{9}

Find the value of x in the diagram below
Ghella [55]

Answer:

x=26

Step-by-step explanation:

4x-8+34+76-x=180

4x-x-8+34+76=180

3x+102=180

3x=180-102

3x=78

x=78/3

x=26

PLZ HELP WILL GIVE 50 POINTS - QUADRATIC APPLICATIONS
Contact [7]

Answer:

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertex of a quadratic function:

Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:

f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c

It's vertex is the point (x_{v}, y_{v})

In which

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}

y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}

Where

\Delta = b^2-4ac

If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at x_{v}, and it's value is y_{v}.

Equation for the height:

The height of the bird after x seconds is given by:

h(x) = -0.114x^2 + 2.29x + 3.5

Which is a quadratic equation with a = -0.114, b = 2.29, c = 3.5.

When the bird is at its highest?

Quadratic equation with a < 0, and thus, at the vertex. The ground distance is the x-value of the vertex. Thus

x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2.29}{2(-0.114)} = 10.04

The bird will be at a ground distance of 10.04 units away.
