Answer:
The probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child is 1/4 or 0.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given in the question,
possible outcomes for the children's genders
{FFFF, FFFM, FFMF, FMFF, MFFF, MFFM, MFMF, MMFF, FFMM, FMFM, FMMF, FMMM, MFMM, MMFM, MMMF, MMMM}
= 16
To find,
the probability of selecting a family with exactly one male child
<h3>Probability = favourable outcomes / possible outcomes</h3>
favourable outcomes = {FFFM, FFMF, FMFF, MFFF}
= 4
Probability = 4 / 16
= 1 / 4
= 0.25
Answer:
BC = 8 and EF = 8.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since triangle ABC and DEF are congruent to each other, BC corresponds with EF (as determined by the triangle names).
Set BC and EF equal to each other.
x + 6 = 3x + 2
Subtract x from both sides.
6 = 2x + 2
Subtract 2 from both sides.
4 = 2x.
Divide 2 on both sides.
x = 2.
Substitute 2 for x.
BC = 2 + 6
BC = 8
Since we already know that EF is congruent to BC, EF is also 8.
EC = 3(2) + 2
EC = 6 + 2
EC = 8

I'm going to take a guess at this and say what you meant is 2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
Step One
Find out the power of 7 that will equal 2401.
You could do it like this.
7^y = 2401 and just guess at some values.
y 7^y
1 7
2 49
3 7 * 7 * 7 = 343
4 7 * 7 * 7 * 7 = 2401 So the answer is 4
7^4 = 2401
Step 2
Equate the powers.
2401 = 7^(6 - 2x)
7^4 = 7^ (6 - 2x)
4 = 6 - 2x Subtract 6 from both sides.
4 - 6 = - 2x
-2 = - 2x divide by - 2
-2/-2 = x
x = 1 <<<<<<<<<<<<<answer
The answer is 6.7
explanation : take 5.5 and add it from 6.7
Answer:
- multiplying a multi-digit number by itself several times (finding the power of a number)
- finding a square root
- statistical calculations
Step-by-step explanation:
We don't know what your introduction tells you, but the above-listed operations are ones I choose to use a calculator for. I also use a calculator for ordinary arithmetic, such as division by numbers with 2 digits or more. (It is simply faster and requires no scratch paper.)
If statistical calculations are not done with a calculator, they at least require the availability of suitable tables.
___
All of these operations can be done by hand without a calculator, and were in times passed. Lifetimes of effort were involved in generating some of the original math tables for statistics, trig, logarithms, and other functions readily evaluated using a modern calculator.
