4:1/6 if you add all the instruments you get 120 then you divide it by six and you get 20 snare drums

Answer:  The correct option is (4) \dfrac{1}{6}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that in a warehouse,  there are 40 guitars, 60 bass guitars, and 20 snare drums.  An instrument is randomly selected to check the storage conditions.

We are to find the probability that the selected instrument is a snare drum.

Let, S be the sample space for the experiment of selecting an instrument and E be the event that the selected instrument is a snare drum.

Then,

n(S) = 40 + 60 + 20 = 120

and

n(E) = 20.

Therefore, the probability of the event E is given by

P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{20}{120}=\dfrac{1}{6}.

Thus, the required probability is \dfrac{1}{6}.

Option (4) is CORRECT.

The perimeter of the base of a square pyramid is 16 feet and it stands 20 ft tall. Calculate the volume.​
Vikentia [17]

Answer: 1706.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula: Volume = \frac{1}{3} \alpha^{2}h

a is the length of the base's edge and h is the height. Since 16 is the length we would square it as it is the length, then we would multiply it by the height which is 20 ft.

<u>Steps: Multiply</u>

Volume = \frac{1}{3} \alpha^{2}h

= \frac{1}{3} * 16^{2} * 20

= 1706.67 feet

Need an answer for question 7 HURRY PLEASE 20 POINTS
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

2x^2 = 6x - 5.

-x^2 - 10x = 34.

These have only complex roots/

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 - 5x = -8

3x^2 - 5x + 8 = 0

There are complex roots if the discriminant  9b^2 - 4ac) is negative.

Here the discriminant D = (-5)^2 - 4*-5*8 = 25 + 160

This is positive so the roots are real.

2x^2 = 6x - 5

2x^2 - 6x + 5 = 0

D = (-6)^2 - 4*2*5 =  36 - 40 = -4

So this has no real roots only complex ones.

12x = 9x^2 + 4

9x^2 - 12x + 4 = 0

D = (-12)^2 - 4*9 * 4 = 144 - 144 = 0.

- Real roots.

-x^2 - 10x = 34

x^2 + 10x + 34 = 0

D = (10)^2 - 4*1*34 = 100 - 136 = -36.

No real roots = only complex roots.

<h3>Answer:      y - 4 = -2(x - 5)</h3>

==================================================

Explanation:

Point slope form is

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point the line goes through.

Parallel lines have equal slopes but different y intercepts. The given equation y = -2x-3 has a slope of -2, meaning that m = -2 is also the slope of the mystery parallel line.

-2 will go in the second box that's just to the left of the parenthesis.

The coordinates of (5, 4) will go in the other remaining boxes to finish off the equation.

We go from this

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

to this

y - 4 = -2(x - 5)

The sum of twice a number and 2 is greater than 4
laila [671]

Let's make the inequality.

The sum of twice a number and 2. We're adding and multiply. X will be the number. 2x+2

Is greater than 4. We'll be using the greater than sign. >4; let's put it together.

2x+2>4; let's solve. First by subtracting two on both sides. 2x>2; let's divide by 2. x>1

So, the inequality is 2x+2>4. To solve it, it is x>1.
