Answer:

Q (2.5, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A (1, -5), C = (10, 1), find Q (x, y), so that AQ:QC = 1:5

AQ = (x - 1, y + 5)

QC = (10 - x, 1 - y)

AQ:QC = 1:5

so 5*AQ = QC

5(x - 1) = (10 - x)

5(y + 5) = 1 - y

Solve them:

5x - 5 = 10 - x

6x = 15

x = 15/6 = 2.5

5y + 25 = 1 - y

6y = -24

y = -24/6 = -4

Then answer is Q (2.5, -4)

We have two fair three-sided dice, indexed by i = 1, 2. Each die has sides labeled 1, 2, and 3. We roll the two dice independent
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

(a) P(X = 0) = 1/3

(b) P(X = 1) = 2/9

(c) P(X = −2) = 1/9

(d) P(X = 3) = 0

(a) P(Y = 0) = 0

(b) P(Y = 1) = 1/3

(c) P(Y = 2) = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Two 3-sided fair die.

- Random Variable X_1 denotes the number you get for rolling 1st die.

- Random Variable X_2 denotes the number you get for rolling 2nd die.

- Random Variable X = X_2 - X_1.

Solution:

- First we will develop a probability distribution of X such that it is defined by the difference of second and first roll of die.

- Possible outcomes of X : { - 2 , -1 , 0 ,1 , 2 }

- The corresponding probabilities for each outcome are:

                  ( X = -2 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

                  P ( X = -2 ):  P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 )

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 1 / 9 )

   

                  ( X = -1 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 2 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 3 }

                 P ( X = -1 ):  P ( X_2 = 1 ) * P ( X_1 = 3 ) + P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 3)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 2 / 9 )

         

       ( X = 0 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 2 } +  { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 3 }

       P ( X = -1 ):P ( X_2 = 1 )*P ( X_1 = 1 )+P( X_2 = 2 )*P ( X_1 = 2)+P( X_2 = 3 )*P ( X_1 = 3)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 3 / 9 ) = ( 1 / 3 )

       

                    ( X = 1 ):  { X_2 = 2 , X_1 = 1 } + { X_2 = 3 , X_1 = 2 }

                 P ( X = 1 ):  P ( X_2 = 2 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 ) + P ( X_2 = 3 ) * P ( X_1 = 2)

                                 :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 ) + ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                 : ( 2 / 9 )

                    ( X = 2 ):  { X_2 = 1 , X_1 = 3 }

                  P ( X = 2 ):  P ( X_2 = 3 ) * P ( X_1 = 1 )

                                    :  ( 1 / 3 ) * ( 1 / 3 )

                                    : ( 1 / 9 )                  

- The distribution Y = X_2,

                          P(Y=0) = 0

                          P(Y=1) =  1/3

                          P(Y=2) = 1/ 3

- The probability for each number of 3 sided die is same = 1 / 3.

Choose the correct simplification of f^9 h^23/f^3 h^17
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

f6h40

Step-by-step explanation:

Step  1  :

           h23

Simplify   ———

           f3  

Equation at the end of step  1  :

         h23

 ((f9) • ———) • h17

         f3  

Step  2  :

Multiplying exponential expressions :

2.1    h23 multiplied by h17 = h(23 + 17) = h40

Final result :

 f6h40

How does this diagram help show that 2/7 = 8/28
Sveta_85 [38]
This diagram shows how 2/7 = 8/28 by showing that you can color in more squares or duplicate that amount of squares 4 times in order to get 8/28. (Since 2/7 x 4/4 = 8/28.)

Need help only good answer plis!
Nesterboy [21]

A. The angles at the intersection of the two lines can be proven to be congruent and complementary . so they meet at a right angle and the lines are perpendicular.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

In above question, In order to find whether AB ⊥ CD, Using compass construction & rounder , keep the tip at A and cut arcs at line CD . Follow the same process again with tip at B and cut arcs at line CD . Do this both sides of Line CD i.e. on left side of AB & on right side of AB. Now, join the intersection points of both side arcs which are intersecting each other. Now, to prove both are right angle to each other i.e.  AB ⊥ CD , can be done by proving congruent  and complementary , so they meet at a right angle and Hence , the lines are perpendicular i.e. AB is inclined to CD at angle of 90°.
