B is the correct answer.

A) The probability that a randomly selected student studies only mathematics would be 20/75.

B) The probability that a randomly selected student studies mathematics or physics would be (20 + X) / 75.

C) The probability that a randomly selected student does not study either of the two subjects would be (75 - (20 + X)) / 75.

D) The exact probability that a student studies mathematics and physics cannot be determined without knowing the number of students who study both subjects.

To determine the requested probabilities, we will use the information provided about the group of 75 students.

a) Study only mate:

We know that there are 20 students studying mathematics and physics, so the number of students studying only mathematics would be the total number of students studying mathematics (20) minus the number of students studying both subjects. Since no information is provided on the number of students studying both subjects, we will assume that none of the students study both subjects. Therefore, the number of students studying only mathematics would be 20 - 0 = 20.

The probability that a randomly selected student studies only mathematics would be 20/75.

b) Study math or physics:

To determine this probability, we need to add the number of students who study mathematics and the number of students who study physics, and then subtract the number of students who study both subjects (we again assume that none of the students study both subjects).

Number of students studying mathematics = 20

Number of students studying physics = X (not given)

Number of students studying both subjects = 0 (assumed)

Therefore, the number of students studying mathematics or physics would be 20 + X - 0 = 20 + X.

The probability that a randomly selected student studies mathematics or physics would be (20 + X) / 75.

c) That he does not study either:

The number of students not studying either subject would be the complement of the number of students studying mathematics or physics. So it would be 75 - (20 + X).

The probability that a randomly selected student does not study either of the two subjects would be (75 - (20 + X)) / 75.

d) To study math and physics:

Since no information is provided on the number of students studying both subjects, we cannot determine the exact probability that a student will study mathematics and physics.

In summary:

a) The probability that a randomly selected student studies only mathematics would be 20/75.

b) The probability that a randomly selected student studies mathematics or physics would be (20 + X) / 75.

c) The probability that a randomly selected student does not study either of the two subjects would be (75 - (20 + X)) / 75.

d) The exact probability that a student studies mathematics and physics cannot be determined without knowing the number of students who study both subjects.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept is where the line cuts the x-axis. That is, when y=0.

Substitute y=0 and we get:

       [tex]0=\frac{1}{3} x-1[/tex]

       [tex]1=\frac{1}{3} x[/tex]

       [tex]x=3[/tex]

So x-intercept is the point (3,0).

10 and 5 are appropriate x-axis and y-axis unit scales given the coordinates (50, 40). Option B.

To determine the appropriate x-axis and y-axis unit scales given the coordinates (50, 40), we need to consider the relationship between the units on the axes and the corresponding values in the coordinate system.

The x-axis represents the horizontal dimension, while the y-axis represents the vertical dimension. The x-coordinate (50) represents a position along the x-axis, and the y-coordinate (40) represents a position along the y-axis.

To determine the appropriate scales, we need to consider how many units on the x-axis are needed to span the distance from 0 to 50 and how many units on the y-axis are needed to span the distance from 0 to 40.

In this case, the x-coordinate is 50, which means we need the x-axis to span a distance of 50 units. However, we don't have enough information to determine the scale for the x-axis accurately. Therefore, options A (50; 10) and D (50; 1) cannot be definitively chosen.

Similarly, the y-coordinate is 40, which means we need the y-axis to span a distance of 40 units. Considering the given options, option B (10; 5) would be a suitable scale, as it allows for the y-axis to span the necessary distance of 40 units.

In summary, given the coordinates (50, 40), the appropriate unit scales would be 10 units per increment on the x-axis and 5 units per increment on the y-axis (Option B).

Answer:

34.63

Step-by-step explanation:

The 2 in 34.6285 marks the hundredths place

We can round by seeing what number is to the right of it which is 8.

Since 8 is larger than 5, we round up by 1.

Thus, 34.63 is our answer

The answer is:

34.63

Work/explanation:

Rounding to the nearest hundredth means rounding to 2 decimal places (DP).

So we have 2 decimal places, and the 3rd one matters too because it will determine the value of the 2nd DP.

The third DP is 8. Since it's greater than 5, then the value of the 2nd DP will be rounded up. I will add 1 to it.

Remember that we round up when the digit that we're rounding to is followed by another digit that is greater than or equal to 5.

So we round :

The values in the domain of fᵒg are all real numbers.

Therefore, the correct answer is: x - 6.

To determine the domain of the composite function fᵒg, we need to find the values of x that are valid inputs for the composition.

The composite function fᵒg represents applying the function f to the output of the function g. In this case, g(x) is equal to -9.

So, we substitute -9 into the function f(x) = √6x:

f(g(x)) = f(-9) = √6(-9) = √(-54)

Since the square root of a negative number is not defined in the set of real numbers, the value √(-54) is undefined.

Therefore, -9 is not in the domain of fᵒg.

To find the values in the domain of fᵒg, we need to consider the values of x that make g(x) a valid input for f(x).

Since g(x) is a constant function equal to -9, it does not impose any restrictions on the domain of f(x).

The function f(x) = √6x is defined for all real numbers, as long as the expression inside the square root is non-negative.

So, any value of x would be in the domain of fᵒg.

The pattern between the numbers 3, 20, 110, and 1715 can be found using a mathematical method. In order to get the following number from each, there is a sequence that must be applied.Let's take a look at the sequence that was used to generate these numbers:

The first number is multiplied by 2 and then increased by 14 to get the second number. For example:

3 x 2 + 14 = 20

Then, the second number is multiplied by 3 and 20, and 110 is added.

20 x 3 + 110 = 170

The third number is multiplied by 4 and then increased by 110.

110 x 4 + 110 = 550

Finally, the fourth number is multiplied by 5 and then increased by 110.

550 x 5 + 110 = 2825

Therefore, using the above formula, the next number in the sequence can be calculated:

1715 x 6 + 110 = 10400

As a result, the sequence of numbers 3, 20, 110, 1715, 10400 can be calculated using the mathematical formula stated above.

a) Passed at least one subject: 100 students

b) Passed exactly two subjects: 90 students

c) Passed Geography and failed Mathematics: 20 students

d) Passed all three subjects: 15 students

e) Failed Mathematics given that they passed History: 30 students.

To solve this problem, let's draw a Venn diagram to visualize the information given:

In the Venn diagram above, the circles represent the three subjects: Mathematics (M), History (H), and Geography (G). The numbers outside the circles represent the students who did not pass that particular subject, and the numbers inside the circles represent the students who passed the subject. The numbers in the overlapping regions represent the students who passed multiple subjects.

Now, let's answer the questions:

a) Passed at least one subject:

To find the number of students who passed at least one subject, we add the number of students in each circle (M, H, and G), subtract the students who passed two subjects (since they are counted twice), and add the students who passed all three subjects.

Total = M + H + G - (M ∩ H) - (M ∩ G) - (H ∩ G) + (M ∩ H ∩ G)

Total = 70 + 60 + 45 - 30 - 25 - 35 + 15

Total = 100

Therefore, 100 students passed at least one subject.

b) Passed exactly two subjects:

To find the number of students who passed exactly two subjects, we sum the students in the overlapping regions (M ∩ H, M ∩ G, and H ∩ G).

Total = (M ∩ H) + (M ∩ G) + (H ∩ G)

Total = 30 + 25 + 35

Total = 90

Therefore, 90 students passed exactly two subjects.

c) Passed Geography and failed Mathematics:

To find the number of students who passed Geography and failed Mathematics, we subtract the number of students in the intersection of M and G from the number of students who passed Geography.

Total = G - (M ∩ G)

Total = 45 - 25

Total = 20

Therefore, 20 students passed Geography and failed Mathematics.

d) Passed all three subjects:

To find the number of students who passed all three subjects, we look at the overlapping region (M ∩ H ∩ G).

Total = (M ∩ H ∩ G)

Total = 15

Therefore, 15 students passed all three subjects.

e) Failed Mathematics given that they passed History:

To find the number of students who failed Mathematics given that they passed History, we subtract the number of students in the intersection of M and H from the number of students who passed History.

Total = H - (M ∩ H)

Total = 60 - 30

Total = 30

Therefore, 30 students failed Mathematics given that they passed History.

1. The limit of (sin3x)/(2x - sinx) as x approaches 0 is -27.

2. The limit of x^(-1)lnx as x approaches infinity is -1.

3. The limit of x/e^x as x approaches infinity is 0.

1. To find the limit of (sin3x)/(2x - sinx) as x approaches 0 using L'Hôpital's rule, we can differentiate the numerator and denominator separately and take the limit again:

Let's differentiate the numerator and denominator:

Numerator: d/dx (sin3x) = 3cos3x

Denominator: d/dx (2x - sinx) = 2 - cosx

Now, we can find the limit of the differentiated function as x approaches 0:

lim x->0 (3cos3x)/(2 - cosx)

Again, differentiating the numerator and denominator:

Numerator: d/dx (3cos3x) = -9sin3x

Denominator: d/dx (2 - cosx) = sinx

Taking the limit as x approaches 0:

lim x->0 (-9sin3x)/(sinx)

Now, substituting x = 0 into the function gives:

(-9sin0)/(sin0) = 0/0

Since we obtained an indeterminate form of 0/0, we can apply L'Hôpital's rule again.

Differentiating the numerator and denominator:

Numerator: d/dx (-9sin3x) = -27cos3x

Denominator: d/dx (sinx) = cosx

Taking the limit as x approaches 0:

lim x->0 (-27cos3x)/(cosx)

Now, substituting x = 0 into the function gives:

(-27cos0)/(cos0) = -27/1 = -27

Therefore, the limit of (sin3x)/(2x - sinx) as x approaches 0 is -27.

2. To find the limit of x^(-1)lnx as x approaches infinity using L'Hôpital's rule, we can differentiate the numerator and denominator separately and take the limit again:

Let's differentiate the numerator and denominator:

Numerator: d/dx (lnx) = 1/x

Denominator: d/dx (x^(-1)) = -x^(-2) = -1/x^2

Now, we can find the limit of the differentiated function as x approaches infinity:

lim x->∞ (1/x)/(-1/x^2)

Simplifying the expression:

lim x->∞ -x/x = -1

Therefore, the limit of x^(-1)lnx as x approaches infinity is -1.

3. To find the limit of x/e^x as x approaches infinity using L'Hôpital's rule, we can differentiate the numerator and denominator separately and take the limit again:

Let's differentiate the numerator and denominator:

Numerator: d/dx (x) = 1

Denominator: d/dx (e^x) = e^x

Now, we can find the limit of the differentiated function as x approaches infinity:

lim x->∞ (1)/(e^x)

Since the exponential function e^x grows much faster than any polynomial function, the denominator goes to infinity much faster than the numerator. Therefore, the limit of (1)/(e^x) as x approaches infinity is 0.

Thus, the limit of x/e^x as x approaches infinity is 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the product of the given expression, we can use the rules of multiplication and apply them to each term within the parentheses:

(p^3)(2p^2 - 4p)(3p^2 - 1)

Expanding the expression, we multiply each term within the parentheses:

= p^3 * 2p^2 * 3p^2 - p^3 * 2p^2 * 1 - p^3 * 4p * 3p^2 + p^3 * 4p * 1

Simplifying further, we combine like terms and perform the multiplication:

= 6p^7 - 2p^5 - 12p^6 + 4p^4

Therefore, the product of (p^3)(2p^2 - 4p)(3p^2 - 1) is 6p^7 - 2p^5 - 12p^6 + 4p^4.

The product of the expressions (p^3)(2p^2 - 4p)(3p^2 - 1) is computed using the distributive property, resulting in 6p^7 - 12p^6 - 2p^5 + 4p^4.

To find the product of the given expressions: (p^3)(2p^2 - 4p)(3p^2 - 1), you will need to apply the distributive property, also known as the multiplication across addition and subtraction.

First, distribute p^3 across all terms inside the brackets of the second expression, then do the same with the result across the terms of the third expression.

The name of the Platonic solid that resembles a cuboid is the hexahedron, or more commonly known as a cube.

The correct answer is option C.

The name of the Platonic solid that resembles a cuboid is the hexahedron, also known as a cube. The hexahedron is one of the five Platonic solids, which are regular, convex polyhedra with identical faces, angles, and edge lengths. The hexahedron is characterized by its six square faces, twelve edges, and eight vertices.

The term "cuboid" is often used in general geometry to describe a rectangular prism with six rectangular faces. However, in the context of Platonic solids, the specific name for the solid resembling a cuboid is the hexahedron.

The hexahedron is a highly symmetrical three-dimensional shape. All of its faces are congruent squares, and each vertex is formed by three edges meeting at right angles. The hexahedron exhibits symmetry under several transformations, including rotations and reflections.

Its regularity and symmetry make the hexahedron an important geometric shape in mathematics and design. It has numerous applications in architecture, engineering, and computer graphics. The cube, as a special case of the hexahedron, is particularly well-known and widely used in everyday life, from dice and building blocks to cubic containers and architectural structures.

The lengths of the other two sides of the right triangle are 36 and 85, respectively.

To find the lengths of the other two sides of a right triangle when one leg has a length of 11, we can use the Pythagorean theorem.

The Pythagorean theorem states that in a right triangle, the square of the length of the hypotenuse (the side opposite the right angle) is equal to the sum of the squares of the lengths of the other two sides.

Let's denote the lengths of the other leg and the hypotenuse as x and y, respectively.

According to the Pythagorean theorem, we have:

x² + 11² = y²

To find the values of x and y, we need to find a pair of whole numbers that satisfy this equation.

We can start by checking for perfect squares that differ by 121 (11^2). One such pair is 36 and 85.

If we substitute x = 36 and y = 85 into the equation, we have:

It's important to note that the survey provides specific data regarding the percentages of students in favor and opposed to year-round school. The claim of ⅓ being in favor does not align with the survey's findings and should be evaluated separately from the survey data.

Answer:

-2097152 is the 20th term

Step-by-step explanation:

Write geometric sequence as an explicit formula

[tex]-4,8,-16,32\rightarrow-4(-2)^0,-4(-2)^1,-4(-2)^2,4(-2)^3\\a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\rightarrow a_n=-4(-2)^{n-1}[/tex]

Find the n=20th term

[tex]a_{20}=-4(-2)^{20-1}=-4(-2)^{19}=4(-524288)=-2097152[/tex]
