Answer:

(sqrt(7))/3 or decimal 0.8819171036881968635005385845464201419034197276941500601227781530...

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

(sqrt(14))/(sqrt(18))

Hint: | Simplify radicals.

sqrt(18) = sqrt(2×3^2) = 3 sqrt(2):

(sqrt(14))/(3 sqrt(2))

Hint: | Multiply numerator and denominator of (sqrt(14))/(3 sqrt(2)) by sqrt(2).

Rationalize the denominator. (sqrt(14))/(3 sqrt(2)) = (sqrt(14))/(3 sqrt(2))×(sqrt(2))/(sqrt(2)) = (sqrt(14) sqrt(2))/(3×2):

(sqrt(14) sqrt(2))/(3×2)

Hint: | Multiply 3 and 2 together.

3×2 = 6:

(sqrt(14) sqrt(2))/6

Hint: | For a>=0, sqrt(a) sqrt(b) = sqrt(a b). Apply this to sqrt(14) sqrt(2).

sqrt(14) sqrt(2) = sqrt(14×2):

(sqrt(14×2))/6

Hint: | Multiply 14 and 2 together.

14×2 = 28:

(sqrt(28))/6

Hint: | Simplify radicals.

sqrt(28) = sqrt(2^2×7) = 2 sqrt(7):

(2 sqrt(7))/6

Hint: | In (2 sqrt(7))/6, divide 6 in the denominator by 2 in the numerator.

2/6 = 2/(2×3) = 1/3:

Answer: (sqrt(7))/3

A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 3 red marbles, 4 yellow marbles, and 6 green marbles. What is the probabi

alexgriva [62]

Answer: a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red marbles = 3

Number of yellow marbles = 4

Number of green marbles = 6

Total number of marbles = 3 +4 +6 = 13

a) the marble is red?

Probability of getting a red marble = $\dfrac{3}{13}$

b) the marble is not yellow?

Probability of not getting yellow = $\dfrac{3+6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

c) the marble is either red or green?

Probability of getting either red or green = P(red) + P(green) = $\dfrac{3}{13}+\dfrac{6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

d) the marble is neither red nor green?

Probability of getting neither red nor green = P(getting yellow) = $\dfrac{4}{13}$

Hence, a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$

The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories

ziro4ka [17]

The scatterplot shown includes the (blue) least-squares regression line, whose equation is y = .975 + .005x, where y is calories (in thousands) and x is years after 1960. Choose the correct statement.

Answer: In the given regression equation, the calories are in thousands. Therefore, the slope 0.005 (0.005 x 1000 =5 calories) means the consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year.

Hence the option a. Consumption is increasing at a rate of 5 calories per year. is correct
