QUESTION 8
Solve the problem that involves probabilities with events that are not mutually exclusive.
Consider a political discussion group consisting of 8 Democrats, 3 Republicans, and 7 Independents. Suppose that two
group members are randomly selected, in succession, to attend a political convention. Find the probability of selecting
an Independent and then a Democrat.
14/81, 25/153, 7/306/ or 4/153?

QUESTION 8Solve The Problem That Involves Probabilities With Events That Are Not Mutually Exclusive.Consider

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (2).

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of Democrats in a political discussion = 8

Number of Republicans = 3

Number of independents = 7

Total members in the discussion = (8 + 3 + 7)

                                                       = 18

Probability of selecting an independent = [tex]\frac{7}{18}[/tex]

Remaining members after selecting one independent = 17

Probability of selecting a Democrat = [tex]\frac{8}{17}[/tex]

Probability of selecting a Republican then a Democrat = [tex]\frac{7}{18}\times \frac{8}{17}[/tex]

                                                                                           = [tex]\frac{28}{153}[/tex]

Therefore, Option (2) will be the answer.

QUADRATIC EQUATION – WORD PROBLEMS
The length of a playground is 15 meters more than the width and the area is 2700 . If the width is x m, find an equation in x and hence, find the dimensions of the classroom.

The answer width =45 m , length = 60 m
I just need the steps

Answers

Answer:

let the width of the playground be X

length will be (X+15)

area - length * width = 2700

(X+15)* X = 2700

x^2+15x-2700=0

x^2+60x-45x-2700=0

X(X+60)-45(X+60)=0

(X+60)(x-45)=0

x=45 because, the dimensions cannot be in negative

so length = 60 and width = 45

Answers

Answer: Mason made $185.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first 10 suits he made $12.50 each suit, then he made $20 for the additional 3.  (Just ignore the "suits part ._.)

250*.05=12.50

250*.08=20

Find the total mass of the triangular region shown below. All lengths are in cm, and the density of the region is sigma(x) = 1 + x grams/cm^2

Answers

Answer:

3 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

We are going to take the mass of a bunch of little strips below the triangle "roof." To do this, we must figure out what formula for the mass we'll use, in this case, we'll use:

Mass of strip = denisty * area = (1+x)*y*deltax grams

now, because the "roof" of the triangle contains two different integrals (it completely changes direction), we will use TWO integrals!

**pretend ∈ is the sum symbol

Mass of left part = lim x->0 ∈ (1+x)*y*deltax = inegral -1 to 0 of (1+x)*3*(x+1) = 3 * integral -1 to 0 of (x^2 + 2x + 1) = 3 *  1/3 = 1

Mass of left part = lim x->0 ∈ (1+x)*y*deltax = inegral 0 to 1 of (1+x)*3*(-x+1) = 3 * integral 0 to 1 of (-x^2 + 1) = 3 * 2/3 = 2

Total mass = mass left + mass right = 1 + 2 = 3 grams

What is an Inequality Equation?

Inequalities are the mathematical expressions in which both sides are not equal. In inequality, unlike in equations, we compare two values. The equal sign in between is replaced by less than (or less than or equal to), greater than (or greater than or equal to), or not equal to sign.

In an inequality, the two expressions are not necessarily equal which is indicated by the symbols: >, <, ≤ or ≥.

Given data ,

Let the inequality equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

From the parallelogram , AB ≈ BC

So , The ( ∠ CBD ) > ( ∠ ABD )

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

( 2x ) < 54°

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation , we get

x < 54/2

x < 27°

And , ∠ ABD cannot be negative or zero ,

So , 2x < 0

Divide by 2 on both sides of the equation , we get

x < 0

Hence , the inequality equation is 0 < x < 27

8. The area of a square weightlifting platform is 16 m2. a) Sketch the platform. What are its dimensions? b) What is the perimeter of the platform?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square platform = Length × Length

A = L² (note that all the sides of a square are equal)

Given

A = 16m²

L² = 16

L = √16

L = 4m

Hence the dimension of the square is 4m by 4m (use the dimension when sketching the diagram. Al the sides is the diagram must be the same i.e 4m)

Perimeter of the square = 4L

P = 4(4)

P = 16m

Hence the perimeter of the platform is 16m

Answers

Answer:

  24√3 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The side length of a regular hexagon is 2/√3 times the length of the apothem. For an apothem of 2√3, the side length is ...

  s = (2/√3)(2√3) = 4

The perimeter P of the hexagon is 6 times the side length, so is 6×4 = 24.

The area is given by ...

  A = 1/2Pa

where P is the perimeter and 'a' is the apothem.

  A = 1/2(24)(2√3) = 24√3

The area of the hexagon is 24√3 square units.

_____

A hexagon can be divided into 6 congruent equilateral triangles. The apothem will be the altitude of one of those, so will divide the triangle into two triangles with angles 30°, 60°, and 90°. The ratios of the side lengths of such a triangle is something you might want to remember: 1 : √3 : 2. The altitude corresponds to the "√3" side, and the side length of the equilateral triangle corresponds to the "2" side. That is, we have the proportion ...

  apothem : hexagon side = √3 : 2

Multiplying by 2 gives the actual values in the hexagon of this problem:

  apothem : hexagon side = 2√3 : 4

They stopped when they heard the call, but looking round and seeing nobody, they went on again with their fighting, which now became more furious. He cried out again, and again they paused and looked about, but seeing no one went back to their fighting. A third time he called out, and then thinking he should like to know the cause of dispute between the three men, he went out and asked them why they were fighting so angrily with one another. One of them said that he had found a stick, and that he had but to strike it against any door through which he wished to pass, and it immediately flew open. Another told him that he had found a cloak which rendered its wearer invisible; and the third had caught a horse which would carry its rider over any obstacle, and even up the glass mountain. They had been unable to decide whether they would keep together and have the things in common, or whether they would separate. On hearing this, the man said, I will give you something in exchange for those three things; not money, for that I have not got, but something that is of far more value. I must first, however, prove whether all you have told me about your three things is true. The robbers, therefore, made him get on the horse, and handed him the stick and the cloak, and when he had put this round him he was no longer visible.
