Answer:

He bought 73 bags of pellets this year.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this year the amount increased by 40%, we can say that it is 100% + 40% = 140% = 1.4 of lasts years amount.

Last years amount was of 52 bags.

So, this year:

52*1.4 = 73

He bought 73 bags of pellets this year.

Which algebraic rule describes the translation of ADEF to AD'E'F?
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

B: (x, y) --> (x + 4, y - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

the shape DEF went to the right along the x axis wich <em>increased</em> x and then went down the y axis or <em>decreased </em>y to make D'E'F'

some good way to remember these translations and orders are...
 - x is first when plotting points, then y (x, y)
 - x increases going right, and decreases going left, as well as y increasing going up, then decreasing going down

BONUS FACT:
the symbol ( ' ) is called a prime when refering to transformations and geometry ((as in D' is pronounced D prime))

Suppose you just received a shipment of nine televisions. Three of the televisions are defective. If two televisions are randoml
Temka [501]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

a)

The probability that both televisions work is:  0.42

b)

The probability at least one of the two televisions does not​ work is:

                          0.5833

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

There are a total of 9 televisions.

It is given that:

Three of the televisions are defective.

This means that the number of televisions which are non-defective are:

          9-3=6

a)

The probability that both televisions work is calculated by:

=\dfrac{6_C_2}{9_C_2}

( Since 6 televisions are in working conditions and out of these 6 2 are to be selected.

and the total outcome is the selection of 2 televisions from a total of 9 televisions)

Hence, we get:

=\dfrac{\dfrac{6!}{2!\times (6-2)!}}{\dfrac{9!}{2!\times (9-2)!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{6!}{2!\times 4!}}{\dfrac{9!}{2!\times 7!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5}{12}\\\\\\=0.42

b)

The probability at least one of the two televisions does not​ work:

Is equal to the probability that one does not work+probability both do not work.

Probability one does not work is calculated by:

=\dfrac{3_C_1\times 6_C_1}{9_C_2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{3!}{1!\times (3-1)!}\times \dfrac{6!}{1!\times (6-1)!}}{\dfrac{9!}{2!\times (9-2)!}}\\\\\\=\dfrac{3\times 6}{36}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\\=0.5

and the probability both do not work is:

=\dfrac{3_C_2}{9_C_2}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{12}\\\\\\=0.0833

Hence, Probability that atleast does not work is:

             0.5+0.0833=0.5833

Slope 4.2; y-intercept (0,3.4)
umka2103 [35]

Answer:I don't know if you're asking for equation or not cause you didn't mention the question so I'm just gonna write down the equation.

y=4.2x+3.4

Use this formula➡️y=mx+b

m is slope, b is y-intercept , x and y are the points like (0, 3.4)

You said it's the y-intercept but it's not. it's just a point on the graph
