Amanda drinks 2 1/2 pints of milk a day. How much is this in cups?

2 answers:

7 0

Answer: A pint is equal to 2 cups (example: a large glass of milk!) When measuring many cups of liquid all put together we might want to use quarts. A quart (qt) is the same thing as 4 cups or 2 pints.

A team of 10 players is to be selected from a class of 6 girls and 7 boys. Match each scenario to its probability. You have to d

tankabanditka [31]

The selection of r objects out of n is done in

$C(n, r)= \frac{n!}{r!(n-r)!}$ many ways.

The total number of selections 10 that we can make from 6+7=13 students is

$C(13,10)= \frac{13!}{3!(10)!}= \frac{13*12*11*10!}{3*2*1*10!}= \frac{13*12*11}{3*2}= 286$
thus, the sample space of the experiment is 286

A.
"The probability that a randomly chosen team includes all 6 girls in the class."

total number of group of 10 which include all girls is C(7, 4), because the girls are fixed, and the remaining 4 is to be completed from the 7 boys, which can be done in C(7, 4) many ways.

 $C(7, 4)= \frac{7!}{4!3!}= \frac{7*6*5*4!}{4!*3*2*1}= \frac{7*6*5}{3*2}=35$

P(all 6 girls chosen)=35/286=0.12

B.
"The probability that a randomly chosen team has 3 girls and 7 boys."

with the same logic as in A, the number of groups were all 7 boys are in, is

 $C(6, 3)= \frac{6!}{3!3!}= \frac{6*5*4*3!}{3!3!}= \frac{6*5*4}{3*2*1}=20$

so the probability is 20/286=0.07

C.
"The probability that a randomly chosen team has either 4 or 6 boys."

case 1: the team has 4 boys and 6 girls

this was already calculated in part A, it is 0.12.

case 2, the team has 6 boys and 4 girls.

there C(7, 6)*C(6, 4) ,many ways of doing this, because any selection of the boys which can be done in C(7, 6) ways, can be combined with any selection of the girls.

 $C(7, 6)*C(6, 4)= \frac{7!}{6!1}* \frac{6!}{4!2!} =7*15= 105$

the probability is 105/286=0.367

since case 1 and case 2 are disjoint, that is either one or the other happen, then we add the probabilities:

0.12+0.367=0.487 (approximately = 0.49)

D.
"The probability that a randomly chosen team has 5 girls and 5 boys."

selecting 5 boys and 5 girls can be done in

 $C(7, 5)*C(6,5)= \frac{7!}{5!2} * \frac{6!}{5!1}=21*6=126$

many ways,

so the probability is 126/286=0.44

Graph y = x2 + 2. Identify the vertex of the graph. Tell whether it is a minimum or maximum

Leona [35]

Vertex is -b/2a. The variable b=2 and a=2. That finds the x coordinate of the vertex. Then to find the y coordinate you just plug the number you got for x (-1/2) into the equation. Like so:
y = 2x+2
y = 2(-1/2)+2
y = -1+2
y = 1
So your vertex is ( -1/2, 1 )
To graph your vertex you take your x coordinate (-1/2) and find it on the x axis of the graph (horizontal line). Then do the same for y (1) (on the vertical axis.
Now that you have your vertex graphed you can find out if it is minimum or maximum by looking at the direction in which the slope is going. If it goes in the positive direction (up) then it is a minimum since that is the lowest point that the line touches. If it is maximum it is opposite. The line faces down and the highest point the line touches is that point.

Which of the following equations describes the line shown below? Check all that apply.

scoundrel [369]

Answer:

B. y = 2x - 2

E. $y + 4 = 2(x + 1)$

F. $y - 6 = 2(x - 4)$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line can be found using either the point-slope equation or the slope-intercept equation.

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (4, 6):

Slope = m = change in y/change in x

Using (4, 6) and (-1, -4),

m = (-4 - 6)/(-1 - 4)

m = -10/-5

m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (4, 6) into the point-slope equation form $y - b = m(x - a)$

Thus:

$y - 6 = 2(x - 4)$

✔️Equation of the line in point-slope using the slope and the coordinates of the point (-1, -4):

Slope = m = 2

Substitute m = 2, and (a, b) = (-1, -4) into the point-slope equation form $y - b = m(x - a)$

Thus:

$y - (-4) = 2(x - (-1))$

$y + 4 = 2(x + 1)$

✔️Equation of the line in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b

Where,

m = slope = 2

b = y-intercept = -2 (the point where the line intercepts the y-axis)

Thus, substitute m = 2 and b = -2 into y = mx + b

y = 2x + (-2)

y = 2x - 2
