Answer:
P( not win) = 2/ (n+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are n+2 total possibilities
There are n winners
not win = n+2 - n = 2
P( not win) = not win / total
= 2/ n+2
Answer:
x = 500 yd
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 125000 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
Let´s call x the side parallel to the stream ( only one side to be fenced )
y the other side of the rectangular area
Then the perimeter of the rectangle is p = 2*x + 2* y ( but only 1 x will be fenced)
p = x + 2*y
1000 = x + 2 * y ⇒ y = (1000 - x )/ 2
And A(r) = x * y
Are as fuction of x
A(x) = x * ( 1000 - x ) / 2
A(x) = 1000*x / 2 - x² / 2
A´(x) = 500 - 2*x/2
A´(x) = 0 500 - x = 0
x = 500 yd
To find out if this value will bring function A to a maximum value we get the second derivative
C´´(x) = -1 C´´(x) < 0 then efectevly we got a maximum at x = 500
The side y = ( 1000 - x ) / 2
y = 500/ 2
y = 250 yd
A(max) = 250 * 500
A(max) = 125000 yd²
6.75 x 14 will get you 94.5 and if you add another 6.75 you will go to high for your goal so that answer is 14
Answer:
The answer is the second one
