Answer: 8 / 48 or 1 / 6 (simplified).

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 48 marbles in the bag.

8 out of the 48 marbles are white, that's why the probability is 8/48 or 1/6.

The temperature of a cup of coffee varies according to Newton's Law of Cooling: dT dt equals negative k times the quantity T min

Maslowich

Answer:

67.3°C

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 25, T(0) = 100, T(1) = 90, find T(4)

dT/dt = -k(T - A)

d(T - A)/dt = -k(T - A)

d(T - A)/(T - A) = -k dt

ln(T - A) = lnC - kt

$T(t) -A=Ce^{-kt}\\T(t) = A + Ce^{-kt} = 25 + Ce^{-kt}\\T(0) = 25 + C = 100\\C=75$

$T(t) = 25 + 75e^{-kt}\\T(1) = 25 + 75e^{-k} = 90\\75e^{-k} = 65\\e^{-k} = \frac{65}{75}, k = ln\frac{75}{65} = 0.1431\\T(t) = 25+75e^{-0.1431t}\\T(4) = 25+75e^{-0.1431\times4} = 67.3$

Select all polynomials that have (x-3) as a factor.

Alchen [17]

Answer:

Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Substitute x = 3 into each polynomial and see if the value of the polynomial is zero. If it is zero then x-3 is a factor.

Try number 1:

a(x) = x^3 - 2x^2 - 4x + 3

a(3) = 3^3 - 2(3)^2 - 4(3) + 3

= 27 - 2(9) - 12 + 3

= 27 - 18 - 12 + 3

= 9 - 18 - 9

= 27 - 27

= 0

So a(x) has (x-3) is a factor of a(x)

The other 3 polynomials are solved in the same way.

Rob has R quarters, and David has R + 24 or 24 more than rob, so together they have 2R+24
