If y varies inversely as x, and x= 8 when y = 4, find y when x = 2

Answer:

y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the inverse variation equation, y = \frac{k}{x}

Plug in 8 as x and 4 as y, then solve for k

y = \frac{k}{x}

4 = \frac{k}{8}

32 = k

So, k is 32.

The equation is y = \frac{32}{x}

Plug in 2 as x and solve for y

y = \frac{32}{x}

y = \frac{32}{2}

y = 16

So, when x = 2, y = 16

Suppose a shipment of 120 electronic components contains 3 defective components. to determine whether the shipment should be​ ac
Likurg_2 [28]

For this problem, the most accurate is to use combinations


Because the order in which it was selected in the components does not matter to us, we use combinations

Then the combinations are nC_r = \frac{ n! }{r! (n-r)!}

n represents the amount of things you can choose and choose r from them


You need the probability that the 3 selected components at least one are defective.

That is the same as:

(1 - probability that no component of the selection is defective).

The probability that none of the 3 selected components are defective is:

P = \frac{_{117}C_3}{_{120}C_3}


Where _{117}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 non-defective components from 117 non-defective components and _{120}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 components from 120.

_{117}C_3 = 260130

_{120}C_3 = 280840


So:

P = \frac{260130}{280840} = 0.927


Finally, the probability that at least one of the selected components is defective is:


P = 1-0.927 = 0.0737

  P = 7.4%

Find the value of C that completes the square
MatroZZZ [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y^2-22y+c

complete the square ax^2+bx+c is our old formula quadratic equation

we know that to find c we will divide b/2 and square it

22/2=11

c^2=121

we have y^2-22y+121

Complete the square to transform the quadratic equation into the form
faltersainse [42]

The square of a binomial is written like

(x\pm a)^2 = x^2\pm 2ax + a^2

In your case, you have 2ax=-8x, which implies a=-4

So, we want to write

(x-4)^2 = x^2-8x+16

But our left hand side is

x^2-8x-10

If we add 26 to both sides, we have

x^2 - 8x - 10 +26 = 18+26 \iff x^2-8x+16=44 \iff (x-4)^2=44

Find the area if the composite shape
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

111 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is a quadrilateral (has four sides and four angle) with two pairs of parallel sides. Opposite sides of a rectangle are equal to each other. Also all the angles of a rectangle are 90° each.

The area of a rectangle = length * width

For rectangle 1, length = 12 m, width = 3 m

Therefore area of rectangle 1 = length * width = 12 m * 3 m = 36 m²

For rectangle 2, length =(12 m - 3 m - 3 m) = 6 m, width =(15 m - 10 m) =5 m

Therefore area of rectangle 2 = length * width = 6 m * 5 m = 30 m²

For rectangle 3, length = 15 m, width = 3 m

Therefore area of rectangle 3 = length * width = 15 m * 3 m = 45 m²

Area of composite shape = Area of rectangle 1 + Area of rectangle 2 + Area of rectangle 3

Area of composite shape = 36 m² + 30 m² + 45 m² = 111 m²
