Answer:

<em>2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

<em>A jar can hold 3/4 of a pound of flour. Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar. What fraction of the jar is filled? Enter your answer in numerical form.</em>

<em />

Given

<em>Amount a jar can hold a = 3/4 of a pound of flour</em>

<em />

<em>If Austin empties 1/2 of a pound of flour into the jar, then the amount emptied into the jar b = 1/2 pounds</em>

<em />

<em>Fraction of jar filled will be expressed as b/a as shown;</em>

<em>b/a = (1/2)/(3/4)</em>

<em>b/a = 1/2 ÷ 3/4</em>

<em>b/a = 1/2 * 4/3</em>

<em>b/a = 4/6</em>

<em>Simplify to the lowest term</em>

<em>a/b = 2*2/2*3</em>

<em>a/b = 2/3</em>

<em />

<em>Hence 2/3 of the jar was filled with flour</em>

According to my graphing calculator, e^1.5=4.5 which is rounded to the nearest tenth.

Answer: e^1.5 = 4.482

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:  

We need to find the value of function at x=1.5

Put x=1.5 into f(x)

Now we will verify the result using graph.

First we draw the graph of f(x) and a vertical line x=1.5

Please see the attachment for graph.

Given:

3b+8\geq 14

To find:

The steps to solving the given inequality.

Solution:

We have,

3b+8\geq 14

Subtract 8 from both sides.

3b+8-8\geq 14-8

3b\geq 6

Divide both sides by 3.

\dfrac{3b}{3}\geq \dfrac{6}{3}

b\geq 2

Two steps are:

1. Subtract 8 from both sides of the inequality.

2. Divide both sides of the inequality by 3.

Therefore, the correct option is A.

A box contains four 10 nf and eight 100 nf capacitors. (a) what is the probability of obtaining at least two 10 nf capacitors if
grigory [225]

there are 4 of the 10-nf and 8 of the 100-nf capacitors which is a total of 12 items.

the probability of drawing a 10-nf is: 4 out of 12 = \frac{1}{3}

the probability of drawing a 100-nf is: 8 out of 12 =  \frac{2}{3}

(a)  "at least two" means: 2 or 3 or 4

Probability of 2 (10's) and 2 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{2}{3} x \frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{81}

Probability of 3 (10's) and 1 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{81}

Probability of 4 (10's) and 0 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{81}

2 or 3 or 4: \frac{4}{81} + \frac{2}{81} + \frac{1}{81} = \frac{7}{81}

(b) without replacement

Probability of 2 (10's) and 2 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{8}{10} x \frac{7}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 8 x 7}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

Probability of 3 (10's) and 1 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{2}{10} x \frac{8}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 8}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

Probability of 4 (10's) and 0 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{2}{10} x \frac{1}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 1}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

2 or 3 or 4: \frac{4 x 3 x 8 x 7}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} + \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 8}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} + \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 1}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} = \frac{672 + 192 + 24}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} =  \frac{888}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}  =  \frac{111}{1485}
