A box of jerseys for a pick-up game of basketball contains 9 extra-large jerseys, 6 large jerseys, and 5 medium jerseys. If you

are first to the box and grab 3 jerseys, what is the probability that you randomly grab 3 medium jerseys? Express your answer as a fraction in lowest terms or a decimal rounded to the nearest millionth.

Answer:

1/114 or 0.008772

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not very sure, my answer seems unlikely, but here's what I think:

There are 20 jerseys in the box to begin with, and 5 medium jerseys that you can have.

Therefore, the probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 5/20 or 1/4.

After taking out one medium sized jersey, there are 19 jerseys in the box and 4 medium jerseys you can pick from.

The probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 4/19.

After taking out another medium sized jersey, there are 18 jerseys left in the box and 3 medium jerseys you can pick from.

The probability of you randomly grabbing a medium sized jersey is 3/18.

To get the answer, you do 1/4 * 4/19 * 3/18, and get 1/114, or 0.00877192982.

If you round that to the nearest millionth, it's 0.008772

Don't judge me, it might not be correct.

What is the solution to x – 10 &gt; – 12?<br><br> (–∞, –18)<br> (–18, ∞)<br> (–∞, 18)<br> (18, ∞)
Allisa [31]

Answer:

(18, ∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

(18, ∞) is the only option that works. if we ignore the "greater than" sign, and just set the function equal to -12, we see that x-10=-12 would give us x=-2. If we plug in -3 for x, we get -13, which is less than -12. if we plug in -1 for x, we get -11, which is greater than -12. Therefore, with the function only having one critical point (zero), we know that every value greater than -2 is a solution. Technically, the full solution would be (-2, ∞). however, the only answer available meeting the criteria would be (18, ∞).

!!please help!!<br>I have an F in this class and really need to get it up!​
lisov135 [29]

I may be wrong, I think I remember how to do this. A straight line has an angle of 180, so y would be 133, making the area 55571.63u. (u = whatever unit is measuring the circle.) If x = 1/20 of the area, then the red area = 2,778.5u or 2,779u. I hope this helps, but I honestly don't remember how I would find x, and I don't want you to get the question wrong.

1/2 ln(x + 3) - lnx = 0 solve for x
rusak2 [61]

Simplify \frac{1}{2}\imath n(x+3)​2​​1​​ın(x+3) to \frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}​2​​ın(x+3)​​

\frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}-\imath nx=0​2​​ın(x+3)​​−ınx=0


2

 

Add \imath nxınx to both sides

\frac{\imath n(x+3)}{2}=\imath nx​2​​ın(x+3)​​=ınx


3

 

Multiply both sides by 22

\imath n(x+3)=\imath nx\times 2ın(x+3)=ınx×2


4

 

Regroup terms

\imath n(x+3)=nx\times 2\imathın(x+3)=nx×2ı


5

 

Cancel \imathı on both sides

n(x+3)=nx\times 2n(x+3)=nx×2


6

 

Divide both sides by nn

x+3=\frac{nx\times 2}{n}x+3=​n​​nx×2​​


7

 

Subtract 33 from both sides

x=\frac{nx\times 2}{n}-3x=​n​​nx×2​​−3

May I please get a step by Step for this ​
natulia [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

h=16t^2+98=?

subtract 98 from both sides to get

h-98=16t^2

(the 98 on the right cancels)

now divide by 16 on both sides

h-98/16=t^2

(the 16 on the right cancels)

lastly take the square root on both sides

square root(h-98/16)= t

if you know what h is fill it in and it will give you your answer

Im not 100% sure!!
