Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let age of Jane = x

Mary's age = x + 1

Sum of both their ages = 15

x + x +1 = 15

2x + 1 = 15

Solution:

Subtract 1 from both sides

2x = 15- 1

2x = 14

Divide both sides by 2

x = 14/2

x = 7

Jane's age = 7

Mary's age = 8

Suppose that g(x) = f(x) + 6. Which statement best compares the graph of g(x) with the graph of f(x)?

nadezda [96]

From the graph attached below, we can see that the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units up. the correct option is C.

<h3>How to know if a point lies in the graph of a function?</h3>

All the points (and only those points) which lie on the graph of the function satisfy its equation.

Thus, if a point lies on the graph of a function, then it must also satisfy the function.

Given;

Suppose that g(x) = f(x) + 6.

From the graph attached below, we can see that the graph of g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 6 units up.

Hence, the correct option is C.

there are 60 teams attend a chess tournament. every team will play with every other team exactly once. Supposed each team has a

Karolina [17]

The probability that no two teams win the same number of games, P ≈ 2.084 × 10⁻⁴⁵³

The reason for arriving at the above probability is as follows:

The given parameters are;

The number of teams in the tournament, n = 60

The chance of a team winning a game = 50% = 0.5

The number of ties = No ties

The required parameter:

The probability that no two teams win the same number of games

Method:

Calculate the number of ways no two teams win the same number of games, and divide the result by the total number of possible outcomes

Solution:

The number of matches played, n = $\dbinom {60} {2}$ = 1,770

The possible outcomes = 2; Winning or losing

The total number of possible outcomes, $n_p$ = 2¹⁷⁷⁰

The number of games won by each team is between 0 and 59

The ways in which no two teams won the same number of games is given by the games won by the teams to be 0, 1, 2,..., 57, 58, 59

Therefore, the number of ways no two teams won the same number of games, the required outcomes, $n_k$ = 59!

$Probability = \dfrac{Number \ of \ possible \ outcomes}{Number \ of \ required\ outcomes}$

The probability that no two teams win the same number of games is given as follows;

$\mathbf{P(No \ two \ teams \ won \ the \ same \ number \ of \ games)} = \dfrac{n_k}{n_p}$

Therefore;

$P(No \ two \ teams \ won \ the \ same \ number \ of \ games) = \dfrac{59!}{2^{1,770}} \approx \mathbf{2.084 \times 10^{-453}}$

The probability that no two teams win the same number of games, P ≈ 2.084 × 10⁻⁴⁵³

A craftsman is making a dulcimer with the same dimensions as the one shown. The surface shown requires a special, more durable t

Bogdan [553]

Answer:

$\displaystyle A=\frac{3h^2}{2}+h$

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Area of trapezoid</u>

Given a trapezoid shape whose parallel sides measure b1 and b2 and whose height (perpendicular to the base) is h, then the area of the trapezoid is given by

$\displaystyle A=\frac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h$

The dulcimer has the following dimensions

$b_1=2h+1$

$b_2=h+1$

and height h

Thus

$\displaystyle A=\frac{2h+1+h+1}{2}\cdot h=\frac{3h+2}{2}\cdot h$

Operating

$\displaystyle A=\frac{3h^2+2h}{2}=\frac{3h^2}{2}+h$

$\boxed{A=\frac{3h^2}{2}+h}$

Is the required polynomial
