X = 3-2^2

Simplify x:

3-4 = -1

X = -1

Replace x in the equation and solve:

(-1) ^2 + 1 /(-1)^2

(-1)^2 = 1

Simplify to get 1 + 1/1 = 1+ 1 = 2

The answer = 2

A line passes through the points (2,21) and (8,27). Write a linear function rule in terms of x and y for

tatiyna

We have two points so we can find the gradient using y1-y2/x1-x2
gradient = 21-27/2-8
= 1
we know the form for any linear equation is y = mx + c
we have m and a point so we can substitute in point (2,21) to find c
21 = 1 x 2 + c
c = 19
therefore, the equation is y = x + 19

Answer:

2 gallons of pure alcohol

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of gallons of pure alcohol needed, and create an equation:

4(0.25) + x(1) = (x + 4)0.5

1 + x = 0.5x + 2

x = 0.5x + 1

0.5x = 1

x = 2

So, 2 gallons of pure alcohol should be added.

In a shipment of 56 vials, only 13 do not have hairline cracks. If you randomly select 3 vials from the shipment, in how many wa

Elden [556K]

Answer: 27434

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Total number of vials = 56

Number of vials that do not have hairline cracks = 13

Then, Number of vials that have hairline cracks =56-13=43

Since , order of selection is not mattering here , so we combinations to find the number of ways.

The number of combinations of m thing r things at a time is given by :-

$^nC_r=\dfrac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$

Now, the number of ways to select at least one out of 3 vials have a hairline crack will be :-

$^{13}C_2\cdot ^{43}C_{1}+^{13}C_{1}\cdot ^{43}C_{2}+^{13}C_0\cdot ^{43}C_{3}\\\\=\dfrac{13!}{2!(13-2)!}\cdot\dfrac{43!}{1!(42)!}+\dfrac{13!}{1!(12)!}\cdot\dfrac{43!}{2!(41)!}+\dfrac{13!}{0!(13)!}\cdot\dfrac{43!}{3!(40)!}\\\\=\dfrac{13\times12\times11!}{2\times11!}\cdot (43)+(13)\cdot\dfrac{43\times42\times41!}{2\times41!}+(1)\dfrac{43\times42\times41\times40!}{6\times40!}\\\\=3354+11739+12341=27434$
