Answer:

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = 0.08091

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Pennies = 18

Dimes = 13

Nickels = 18

Quarters = 13

Required

Probability of selecting 2 nickels without replacement

This can be represented as: P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel)

The solution is as follows

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = \frac{Nickel}{Total}*\frac{Nickel-1}{Total-1}

The second nickel is reduced by 1 because the first nickel was not replaced and this also reduces the total by 1

So, we have:

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = \frac{18}{62}*\frac{18-1}{62-1}

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = \frac{18}{62}*\frac{17}{61}

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = \frac{18*17}{62*61}

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = \frac{306}{3782}

P(Nickel\ and\ Nickel) = 0.08091

Please help me write quadratic equation given the roots and the leading coefficient
Pie

Answer:

Example Question: f(x) = 2x^2 + 2x - 1


If the leading coefficient is positive, the graph will be opening up (U) if the leading coefficient is negative, the graph will be opening down (n)


Roots are the x-intercepts that help find the axis of symmetry (add the two roots together and divide the result by 2 to get the axis of symmetry)


To find the vertex, simply imput the axis of symmetry into the given equation.


And that’s about it.

Step-by-step explanation:

I don’t know what you’re asking for??

Virty [35]

Answer:

Formula for nth term in Arithmetic sequences is:

a_n =a+(n-1)d

where a is the first term, d is the common difference and n is the number of terms.

As per the statement:

The rule for the pattern is add 4.

As the first term in line says the first term i,e 7

a= 7

common difference(d)= 7

As the Jenna number is 8th in line.

Series we get;

7, 11, .........a_8

We have to find the 8th term.

n = 8, a = 7 and d = 4

Using above formula:

a_8 = 7+(8-1)4 = 7+7 \cdot 4 = 7 +28 = 35

Therefore, 35 number should Jenna say.
