Answer:

The number is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be x

2(x) - 5 = x - 4

2x - 5 = x - 4

2x - x = -4 + 5

x = 1

Therefore the number is 1

emmainna [20.7K]

Answer: 5.34*10^{-5}

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

number of balls = 65.

special black ball that is picked from 10 other balls = numbered 0-9.

<u><em>Solution:</em></u>

<em>probability that a single lottery ticket will match 2 balls and the special black ball.</em>

= 65C2*9C1\\\\= 18720\\\\=\frac{1}{18720} \\\\= 5.34*10^{-5}

3.3 find the length of the side indicated. And round to 1 decimal place
patriot [66]

Answer:

31.1

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an isosceles triangle. Let us name the unnamed side y. y will also equal 22. We also know that this is a right triangle so using the pythagorean theorem we can calculate x. x = √(22^2+22^2) so x = 31.1.

the initial vertical velocity of a rocket shot straight up is 42 meters per second. How long does it take for the rocket to retu
Snowcat [4.5K]
It takes 4.3 seconds for the rocket to return to earth.

The equation is:
0=-9.8t^2+v_0t+h_0
where -9.8m/sec² is the acceleration due to gravity, v₀ is the initial velocity, and h₀ is the initial height.  We will go from the assumption that the rocket is launched from the ground, so h₀=0, and we are told that the initial velocity, v₀, is 42.  This gives us:

0=-9.8t^2+42t

We will use the quadratic formula to solve this.  The quadratic formula is:
x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

Plugging in our information we have:
t=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{42^2-4(-9.8)(0)}}{2(-9.8)}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764-0}}{-19.6}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{-42\pm \sqrt{1764}}{-19.6}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{-42\pm 42}{-19.6}=\frac{-42-42}{-19.6} \text{ or } \frac{-42+42}{-19.6}&#10;\\&#10;\\=\frac{-84}{-19.6}\text{ or }\frac{0}{-19.6}&#10;\\&#10;\\=4.3\text{ or }0

x=0 is when the rocket is launched; x=4.3 is when the rocket lands.
