Weight of cooked peas is (2/3)(5 lb/8) = (10/24) lb, or (5/12) lb.

Divide this weight by 5 (people):


5
--
12
---------- = 1/12 lb, or   16/12 oz   = 1.33 oz, or 4/3 oz.

Below is the graph of y=b^x. Find b.
omeli [17]
Y = <span>b^x

when x = 1
y = b^1
y  = b

Therefore, the value of b is the same as the value of y when x =1
From the graph,
When x = 1, y = 0.5
Therefore, b = 0.5


To confirm this

From the graph,

When x = -1, y = 2
Since </span>y = b^x<span>
2 = </span>b^-1
2 = 1/b
2b = 1
b = 0.5

When x = -2, y = 4
Since y = b^x
4 = b^-2
4 = 1/(b^2)
b^2 = 1/4
b = √(1/4)
b = 1/2
b = 0.5

Therefore, it is conformed that b = 0.5

You have a bag full of apples. There are 12 Jonathan (red), 6 Granny Smith (green), and 3 Golden Delicious (yellow) apples in th
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

The total number of apples is 17

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)

Number of green apples = 4

P ( that all three apples are green)

= (limit 4 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 4! / 3!(4−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 1 / 170

= 0.005

(b)

Number of red apples = 8

P(that all three apple are green)

=(limit 8 and 3) / (limit 17 and 3)

= 8! / 3!(8−3)!

= 17! / 3!(17−3)!

= 7 / 85

= 0.082

Now,

P(that no three apple is red)= 1−0.082 = 0.918

c)

P(of selecting 4 apple that contain at least 2 red apples)

= (limit 8 and 2) /( limit 17 and 2) X (2/15) + (limit 8 and 3) /(limit 17 / 3) X (1/14)

= (7/34) × (2/15) + (7/85) × (1/14)

= 0.027 + 0.058

= 0.085

d)

P(that the second apple selected is yellow given that the first apple is red)

= (limit 5 and 1) / ( limit 16 and 1)

= 5! / 1!(5−1)!

= 16! / 1!(16−1)!

= 5 /16

= 0.3125

1. Find the value of x in the equation √ x + 5 = √ x + 45.<br> A. 16<br> B. 4<br> C. 1<br> D. 2
Korvikt [17]
I think you mean
sqrt x + 5 = sqrt (x+45)


if you plug in x = 4,
left side = sqrt 4 + 5 = 2+ 5 = 7

right side = sqrt (4+45) = sqrt 49 = 7

so the answer is x = 4 :)
