A box contains 14 large marbles and 11 small marbles. Each marble is either green or white. 8 of the large marbles are green, an

prisoha [69]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of Large Marbles = 14

Number of Small Marbles = 11

Number of Green large marbles = 8

Number of White small marbles = 5

We can now find the number of white large marbles and green small marbles from the information stated above.

No of white large marble = total large marble minus green large marble

= 14-8

= 6

No of green small marbles = Total small marbles minus white small marble.

= 11-5

= 6

Let the following be represented

( X,Y, Z,Q ) as follows:

Let Y be the event of drawing small marble

Let X be the event of drawing large marble

Let Q be the event of drawing white marble

Let Z be the event of drawing green marble.

Since, only one marble is drawn at a time we calculate,

P( X ) = 14/25

P( Y) = 11/25

P(Z) = 14/25

P( Q) = 11/25

P(Y∪Q)=P(Y)+P(Z)−P(Y∩Z)...(1)

We need to find the value of

P(Y∩Z)

In 11 small marbles there are 6 green marbles so the value of P(Y∩Z) is given by P(Y∩Z)=6/11

Therefore, substitute the values in equation 1.

P(Y∪Z)=P(Y)+P(Z)−P(Y∩Z)=11/25+14/25-

6/11

=0.44+0.56−0.5455

= 1-0.5455

= 909/2000

= 0.4545

Then, one can conclude that the probability of drawing a small or green marble is 0.4545

A ball is thrown into the air and its position is given by h ( t ) = − 6.3 t 2 + 53 t + 24 where h is the height of the ball in

nordsb [41]

Answer:

$h'(t) = -12.6 t +53$

Now we can set up the derivate equal to 0 and we have:

$-12.6 t +53 = 0$

And solving for t we got:

$t = \frac{53}{12.6}= 4.206$

For the second derivate respect the time we got:

$h''(t) = -12.6$

So then we can conclude that t = 4.206 is a maximum for the function.

And the corresponding height would be:

$h(t=4.206) = -6.3(4.206)^2 +53*4.206+24= 135.468 ft$

So the maximum occurs at t = 4.206 s and with a height of 135.468 m

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have the following function:

$h(t) = -6.3t^2 +53 t+24$

In order to maximize this function we need to take the first derivate respect the time and we have:

$h'(t) = -12.6 t +53$

Now we can set up the derivate equal to 0 and we have:

$-12.6 t +53 = 0$

And solving for t we got:

$t = \frac{53}{12.6}= 4.206$

For the second derivate respect the time we got:

$h''(t) = -12.6$

So then we can conclude that t = 4.206 is a maximum for the function.

And the corresponding height would be:

$h(t=4.206) = -6.3(4.206)^2 +53*4.206+24= 135.468 ft$

So the maximum occurs at t = 4.206 s and with a height of 135.468 m
