Answer:

66 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

This implies that in this specific town in Texas, an average of 30 inches of rain falls every two weeks.

Amount of rain received every two weeks (14 days) = 30 inches.

For a 31 day month, we have:

     \frac{31}{14} =  2\frac{3}{14}

Therefore for a 31 day month, the amount of rain received by the town can be determined as;

                               = 30 x 2\frac{3}{14}

                               = 66.4285

                               = 66 inches

The amount of rain received by the town is 66 inches for the 31 days.

Suppose a shipment of 120 electronic components contains 3 defective components. to determine whether the shipment should be​ ac
Likurg_2 [28]

For this problem, the most accurate is to use combinations


Because the order in which it was selected in the components does not matter to us, we use combinations

Then the combinations are nC_r = \frac{ n! }{r! (n-r)!}

n represents the amount of things you can choose and choose r from them


You need the probability that the 3 selected components at least one are defective.

That is the same as:

(1 - probability that no component of the selection is defective).

The probability that none of the 3 selected components are defective is:

P = \frac{_{117}C_3}{_{120}C_3}


Where _{117}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 non-defective components from 117 non-defective components and _{120}C_3 is the number of ways to select 3 components from 120.

_{117}C_3 = 260130

_{120}C_3 = 280840


So:

P = \frac{260130}{280840} = 0.927


Finally, the probability that at least one of the selected components is defective is:


P = 1-0.927 = 0.0737

  P = 7.4%

Given the function, f (x) = sq3x+3+3, choose the correct transformation.
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's start from the parent function. The parent function is:

f(x)=\sqrt{x}

The possible transformations are so:

f(x)=a\sqrt{bx-c} +d,

where a is the vertical stretch, b is the horizontal stretch, c is the horizontal shift and d is the vertical shift.

From the given equation, we can see that a=1 (so no change), b=3, c=-3 (<em>negative </em>3), and d=3.

Thus, this is a horizontal stretch by a factor of 3, a shift of 3 to the <em>left </em>(because it's negative), and a vertical shift of 3 upwards (because it's positive).

at a basketball game, a vendor sold a combined total of 218 sodas and hotdogs. The number of hotdogs sold was 50 less than the n
velikii [3]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  • 134 soda
  • 84 hot dogs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let s represent the number of sodas sold. Then the number of hot dogs sold is (s-50) and the total is ...

  s +(s -50) = 218

  2s = 268 . . . . . . . . . add 50

  s = 134 . . . . . . . divide by 2

134 sodas were sold; 84 hot dogs were sold.
