Answer: \dfrac{76}{89}

Step-by-step explanation:

The pool of rats from which the researcher is drawing participants is composed of the following:

23 male albino rats

21 male spotted rats

35 female albino rats

11 female spotted rats

Total rats = 23+21+35+11 =90

P(male\ albino)=\dfrac{23}{90}

After drawing first rat , total rats remained = 89

P(\text{either a female albino rat or a male spotted rat})=\dfrac{35+21}{89}=\dfrac{76}{89}

The probability of choosing a male albino rat and then either a female albino rat or a male spotted rat = \dfrac{76}{89}

A cylidrical container of height 28cm and diameter of 18cm is with water. The water is then poured into another container with a
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

23.9894949495cm is the depth of the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cylindrical container:

height: 28

radius: 9 (or 18/2)

pi * 9² = 254.4690049408

254.4690049408 * 28 = 7,125.1321383424 cm²

cylidrical container area: 7,125.1321383424cm²

Container:

length: 27cm

width: 11cm

27 * 11 = 297

7,125.1321383424 / 297 = 23.9894949495cm

I assume that the container with rectangular base is precisely full when tou pour the water into it.

And that your question was how deep the container was.

Show that the line integral is independent of path by finding a function f such that ?f = f. c 2xe?ydx (2y ? x2e?ydy, c is any p
Juli2301 [7.4K]
I'm reading this as

\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy

with \nabla f=(2xe^{-y},2y-x^2e^{-y}).

The value of the integral will be independent of the path if we can find a function f(x,y) that satisfies the gradient equation above.

You have

\begin{cases}\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}=2xe^{-y}\\\\\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=2y-x^2e^{-y}\end{cases}

Integrate \dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x} with respect to x. You get

\displaystyle\int\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial x}\,\mathrm dx=\int2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx
f=x^2e^{-y}+g(y)

Differentiate with respect to y. You get

\dfrac{\partial f}{\partial y}=\dfrac{\partial}{\partial y}[x^2e^{-y}+g(y)]
2y-x^2e^{-y}=-x^2e^{-y}+g'(y)
2y=g'(y)

Integrate both sides with respect to y to arrive at

\displaystyle\int2y\,\mathrm dy=\int g'(y)\,\mathrm dy
y^2=g(y)+C
g(y)=y^2+C

So you have

f(x,y)=x^2e^{-y}+y^2+C

The gradient is continuous for all x,y, so the fundamental theorem of calculus applies, and so the value of the integral, regardless of the path taken, is

\displaystyle\int_C2xe^{-y}\,\mathrm dx+(2y-x^2e^{-y})\,\mathrm dy=f(4,1)-f(1,0)=\frac9e

The length of a rectangle is one inch less than three times its width. If the perimeter of the rectangle is 118 inches, find the
IgorLugansk [536]
We can set up the width a X and, from the description the length would be 3X-1. The perimeter of a rectangle is determined by 2XL + 2Xw. Plugging into the equation 2(3X-1) + 2(X) = 118. Next distribute to get 6X-2 + 2X = 118. Combine like terms to get 8X = 120. Divide by 8 to get X = 15. The width is 15. The length is 3(15)-1 or 44. 88 +30 = 118

Snezhnost [94]
To find how much lemonade the pitcher can hold, you will add the amounts that he drank and remained to get a total.  This total would be the starting amount.

8 oz + 8 oz + 24 oz = 40 ounces

The pitcher originally held 40 ounces of lemonade.

Combine like terms: 8v-6j-10v+8j
diamong [38]
Just put them together. The subtraction sign is a negative sign. First step: 8v-10v= -2v Second Step: 8j-6j= 2j So your final answer would be: 2j-2v
