mean $225 and standard deviation $25. Alex works at a different restaurant; the distribution of his weekly tips is approximately normal with mean $240 and standard deviation $15. Assuming their weekly tips are independent, which is the probability that Chris will make more in tips than Alex in a randomly selected week? Show your work.

Prove algebraically that the straight line with equation x=2y+5 is a tangent to the circle with equation x^2+y^2=5
zmey [24]

Differentiate both sides of the equation of the circle with respect to x, treating y=y(x) as a function of x:

x^2+y^2=5\implies2x+2y\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=0\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dx}=-\dfrac xy

This gives the slope of any line tangent to the circle at the point (x,y).

Rewriting the given line in slope-intercept form tells us its slope is

x=2y+5\implies y=\dfrac12x-\dfrac52\implies\mathrm{slope}=\dfrac12

In order for this line to be tangent to the circle, it must intersect the circle at the point (x,y) such that

-\dfrac xy=\dfrac12\implies y=-2x

In the equation of the circle, we have

x^2+(-2x)^2=5x^2=5\implies x=\pm1\implies y=\mp2

If x=-1, then -1=2y+5\implies y=-3\neq2, so we omit this case.

If x=1, then 1=2y+5\implies y=-2, as expected. Therefore x=2y+5 is a tangent line to the circle x^2+y^2=5 at the point (1, -2).

.If you dye 1/3 of it blue, ¼ pink and 2/5 black, how much of your original hair colour is left?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

You have 1/60 of the original hair color left

Step-by-step explanation:

Add up the fractions

1/3 + 1/4 + 2/5

Get a common denominator of 60

1/3 * 20/20    + 1/4 * 15/15    + 2/5 * 12/12

20/60 + 15/60 + 24/60

59/60

The total is 1 or 60/60

60/60 - 59/60

1/60

You have 1/60 of the original hair color left
