Mila [183]4 years ago

Minimum value is equal to x=8, y=-4First find the derivative of the original equation which equals= d/dx(x^2-16x+60) = 2x - 16at x=8, f'(x), the derivative of x equals zero, so therefore, at point x = 8, we have a minimum value.Just plug in 8 to the original equation to find the answer for the minimum value.

If P(A) = 0.2, P(B) = 0.2, and P(A ∪ B) = 0.4, then P(A ∩ B) = _______.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

P(A ∩ B) = 0.

a) NO

b) YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Thinking about this through Venn diagrams we can sort of understand that:

if P(A) = 0.2 and P(B) = 0.2, and P(A∪B) = 0.4.

there's no overlapping between P(A) and P(B).

(If there was overlapping then P(A∪B) < 0.4, since you'd be excluding the overlapped part from getting counted twice.

Think of it in terms of calculating areas circles A and B, if the circles were disjoint, then the sum of the areas A and B would be 0.2+0.2. But if the circles were overlapping then the sum of the areas would be 0.2+0.2-P(A ∩ B), where P(A ∩ B) is the overlapping part)

since there's no overlapping P(A ∩ B) = 0.

a) NO

events A and B are only independent when P(A ∩ B) > 0 (or overlapping)

b) YES

events A and B are mutually exclusive when P(A ∩ B) = 0 (or disjoint)

Explain why it is necessary to rename 4 1/2 if you subtract 3/4 from it
ra1l [238]
It is neccesary because you cannot subtract them without having a common denominator so you have to rename 4 1/2

The graph represents the cost of a subscription to a newspaper. A coordinate plane showing Ferry Ride Cost with Number of Person
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

The constant of variation is $1.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Point 1 (1,2)

Point 2 (5,8)

Required

Constant of Variation

Though the graph would have assisted in answering the question; its unavailability doesn't mean the question cannot be solved.

Having said that,

the constant variation can be solved by calculating the gradient of the graph;

The gradient is often represented by m and is calculated as thus

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Where

(x_1, y_1) = (1,2)\\(x_2, y_2) = (5,8)

By substituting values for x1,x2,y1 and y2; the gradient becomes

m = \frac{8 - 2}{5 - 1}

m = \frac{6}{4}

m = \frac{3}{2}

m = 1.50

Hence, the constant of variation is $1.50

Eighty-seven decreased by three times a number is greater than one hundred sixty-five
QveST [7]
The answer
the question is not clear
if it is to determine how to write this phrase as a mathematics equation, it is as follow:
let be x the unknown number
so <span>ighty-seven decreased by three times a number is greater than one hundred sixty-five means  87 - 3x>165, 
so we can solve it easily as 87 - 165> 3x, and then 3 x > 32, and finally the value of x is x > 32/3=10.66</span>

See the image attached for all information needed.
avanturin [10]

Answer:

12.54 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of Parallelogram = Base x Height

In this case, Base = 3.3 mi and Height = 3.8 mi

Hence,

Area = 3.3 x 3.8 = 12.54 square miles
