Step-by-step explanation:

b varies directly to c and square root of d

K is the constant

b=c

b=c/√d

b=Kc/√9

12= 8k/√9

12=8k/3

we crossed multiply

12*3=8k

36=8kb

we divide both sides by 8

K= 36/8

K= 18/4

K= 9/2

Go back to the equation

b=Kc/√d

b=9/2(11)/√25

b= 99/2/5

b= 49.5/5

b= 9.9 or b=10

Step-by-step explanation:

What is probability?

Probability is simply the chances of something occuring.

As a formula, I like to say that formula = # of favorable outcomes / total # of outcomes

Where favorable outcomes is what we want to happen and total # of outcomes is the total number of possibilities.

In order to find the probability of the occurrence of something in a row, we multiply the individual probabilities of each action

Understanding the question

Here we are given that caleb has 7 black caps 4 yellow caps and 9 blue caps in his wardrobe and given this we want to find the probability of Caleb randomly selecting 2 blue caps without replacing it the first being drawn.

So here # of favorable outcomes = # of blue caps = 9

and

total number of outcomes = total # of caps = 7 + 4 + 9 = 20

Finding the probability

<em>For </em><em>first </em><em>draw</em>

First let's find the probability that caleb will select a blue cap the first time.

We know that probability = # of favorable outcomes / total # of outcomes

We also know that # of favorable outcomes = 9 and total # of outcomes = 20

Plugging this in, we get that the probability of Caleb randomly selecting a blue cap on the first draw is 9/20

<em>For </em><em>second </em><em>draw</em>

Because it says that caleb will not replace the cap when drawn it's important to subtract 1 from both the # of caps and # of blue caps

This results us in having # of favorable outcomes as 8 and total # of outcomes as 19

Plugging this in we get that the probability of Caleb drawing a blue cap the second time is 8/19

Finally to find the total probability of him selecting two blue caps in a row without replacing the first cap, we multiply the individual probabilities

From doing so we acquire 9/20 * 8/19 = 18/95

How many solutions are there to the equation <br> 8x - 7 = 2 (2x + 7) - 5

igomit [66]

Answer:

x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

8x - 7 =2(2x +7) - 5

8x - 7 =4x +14 - 5

8x - 7 =4x +9

8x - 4x =9 +7

4x =16

x=16 :4

You need to know the formula for the area of a circle , do you?

it's pi* $r^{2}$

plug in 1/2 of the diameter , they tell us it's 48 + 6 = 54

54/2 = 27

pi* $27^{2}$ =2290.2 sq inches

Elvira is comparing prices between two different suppliers of fresh lettuce. Val’s Veggies charges $250 for delivery plus $1.50

ad-work [718]

Answer:

61 bags of lettuce

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's create two equations representing the cost of bags of lettuce:

Val's Veggies: 250 + 1.50x = V

Sally's Salads: 100 + 4.00x = S

If you buy 60 bags of lettuce from either store, the answers will be equivalent:

If x = 60

250 + 1.50x = V

250 + 90 = V

340 = V

100 + 4.00x = S

100 + 240 = S

340 = S

Now that both equations are equivalent, all we need to do to tip the balance and make Val's Veggies cheaper is purchase one more bag of lettuce:

x = 61

250 + 1.50x = V

250 + 91.50 = V

341.50 = V

100 + 4.00x = S

100 + 244 = S

344 = S

Since V represents the price of a bag of lettuce at Val's Veggies and V is now less than S (Sally's Salads), Val's Veggies is now the cheaper option.

Therefore, 61 bags of lettuce must be purchased in order for Val's Veggies to be the cheaper option.

After the dilation $\frac{5}{3}$ around the center of dilation (2, -2), our triangle will have coordinates:

$R'=(2,3)$

$S'=(2,-2)$

$T'=(-3,-2)$

<h2>Explanation</h2>

First, we are going to translate the center of dilation to the origin. Since the center of dilation is (2, -2) we need to move two units to the left (-2) and two units up (2) to get to the origin. Therefore, our first partial rule will be:

$(x,y)$ → $(x-2, y+2)$

Next, we are going to perform our dilation, so we are going to multiply our resulting point by the dilation factor $\frac{5}{3}$ . Therefore our second partial rule will be:

$(x,y)$ → $\frac{5}{3} (x-2,y+2)$

$(x,y)$ → $(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{10}{3} ,\frac{5}{3} y+\frac{10}{3} )$

Now, the only thing left to create our actual rule is going back from the origin to the original center of dilation, so we need to move two units to the right (2) and two units down (-2)

$(x,y)$ → $(\frac{5}{3} x-\frac{10}{3}+2,\frac{5}{3} y+\frac{10}{3}-2)$
