Find the difference.

I solved it myself and my result is (n+1)/n. Why is that 1/2 there? An explanation would be great if possible. Thanks!

Answer:

The product of (k + 1) series starts with 3 (because k = 2) and you need 2 to be multiplied to this in order to get (n + 1)!

Therefore you need to multiply 2 and 1/2 to make it right. 2 completes the factorial and 1/2 remains.

Hope it was clear explanation.

What is the answer?

Answer:

x = 20 but see below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark.

This is not well enough marked to know whether D = A or whether you have to do some algebra to find the relationship between A and D. So I will assume A = D and then I'll solve it so you have to manipulate A and D.

A = D

3x - 10 = 2x + 10 Add 10 to both sides

3x - 10 + 10 = 2x + 10 + 10 Cancel

3x = 2x + 20 Subtract 2x from both sides

3x-2x=2x-2x + 20

x = 20

A = E

If A = E then to find x you have to add 3 angles together.

E + D + 45 = 180 Add the three angles of the triangle

E + D = 180 - 45 Subtract 45 from both sides

E + D = 135 Substitute for D and E

3x - 10 + 2x + 10 = 135 Combine like terms

5x = 135 Divide by 5

x = 135 / 5

x = 27

Answer

I'd go with the first one.

A box has 11 marbles, 3 of which are white and 8 of which are red. A sample of 4 marbles are selected randomly from the box with

aliina [53]

14/99

Select 1 marble; the chance that it is white is 4/12. Select a 2nd marble; the chance that it is white is 3/11. Select a 3rd; the chance it is white is 2/10. Select a 4th; the chance it is red is 8/9. Select a 5th; the chance it is red is 7/8. The chance of getting this specific set of 5 marbles in this order is (4/12)×(3/11)×(2/10)×(8/9)×(7/8)=(2×7)/(11×10×9).

This specific set could occur in the permutation of 5 things taken 5 at a time where 3 are identical (white), and the other 2 are also identical (red). The formula for this is 5!/(3!2!)=10.

Combining the chance of getting white, white, white, red, red with the number of ways 3 white and 2 red could have been distributed in the draw of 5 marbles gives the answer:

{(2×7)/(11×10×9)}×10=14/99

A similar process will show that the chance of getting 5 red marbles is 7/99; 4 white and 1 red is 1/99; 2 white and 3 red is 42/99; and 1 white and 4 red is 35/99.

A culture started with 3000 bacteria. After 4 hours, it grew to 3,600 bacteria. Predict how many bacteria will be present after

Vlad [161]

Hello Shannonrodrigue. You can solve this by setting up an exponential growth equation.

$A = A_ob^t$
$3600 = 3000b^4$

Now we solve for b
$3600 = 3000b^4$
$\frac{3600}{3000} = \frac{3000b^{4}}{3000}$
$\frac{6}{5} = b^4$
$\sqrt[4]{\frac{6}{5}} = \sqrt[4]{b^4}$
$\sqrt[4]{\frac{6}{5}} = b$

Now that we have found b, we can use the equation $A = 3000b^t$ to predict how many bacteria will be present after 10 hours.
$b = \sqrt[4]{\frac{6}{5}}$
t = 10
$A = 3000b^t$
$A = 3000\sqrt[4]{\frac{6}{5}}^{10} = 4732.3228 = 4732$

Answer = 4732
