A student ran out of time on a multiple choice exam and randomly guessed the answers for two problems. Each problem had 4 answer choices - a, b, c, d - and
only one correct answer. What is the probability that he answered both of the problems correctly?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We can break this down:

The student has a one out of five chance of getting a correct answer, and a four out of five chance of an incorrect answer. We can express the students odds of getting one incorrect answer as 4/5. In order to get the odds of two wrong answers, we need to multiply this answer again by the odds of choosing a wrong answer. Therefore:

The odds of one wrong answer = 4/5

The odds of two wrong answers = (4/5) * (4/5) = 16/25 chance of getting both of the questions wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

In one year, the car depreciates by 9% of its original value:

  0.09 × $28,000 = $2520 . . . . amount of depreciation

The value at the end of one year is ...

  $28,000 -2,520 = $25,480

PLS HELP!!!! I don't understand how to answer this question!!!

Answers

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A and B are complementary which means they both add up to 90 degrees. Angle A is x+22 while angle B is only x. If we add both together, we can call angle A+B to be 2x+22. We can rewrite this as 2x+22=90. Take the 22 over to the other side and its sign changes so it is now 2x=90-22. 90-22=68 so now we have 2x=68. To isolate the x divide both sides by 2 which gives us x=34.

complimentary angles mean angles that add up to 90 so you could rewrite this as x + 22 + x = 90
then you can rewrite that as
2x + 22 = 90
from here on, you use inverse operations to solve for x, subtracting 22 then dividing what’s left by 2
2x = 90 - 22
2x = 68
x=34

Consider the equation y = 3x - 1
Identify the slope and y-intercept and
sketch the graph.

Answers

The slope will be the number that always sits next to x. So the slope in this case is 3/1. Which is rise over run. If it was a fraction, like 1/3, that would mean that the slope is rise one, run three.
If you want to find the y-intercept, you do that by putting a zero in for x, so you want to find the point that the line intersects the y-axis. So x would be zero, and wherever that point is is the y-intercept. In this case:
y = 3x - 1

y = 3(0) - 1

3 times 0 is zero

y = - 1 So, the y-intercept is - 1, or (0,-1)


To sketch the graph, you just place any number in for x or y (x is easier in this case), and solve it.
For example, I am going to say that x equals two.

y = 3(2)-1

y = 6-1

y = 5

So, your point to put on the graph would be (2,5) (x,y)

A 3m ladder stands on horizontal ground and reaches 2.8 m up a vertical wall. How far is the foot of the ladder from the base of the wall?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

let T be the top of the ladder

let F be the foot of the ladder

let B be the base of the wall

you need to find the distance between the foot of the ladder and the base of the wall, in other words the distance of the 'ground' ( refer to the diagram).

you are given that the hypotenuse - H is 3 m and that the opposite - O ( wall ) is 2.8 m.

i) find the angle

given

H, O → use SOH, sin.

sin x = opp. /hyp.

sin x = 2.8 / 3

x = sin-1 ( 2.8/ 3)

x = 68.960...

x = 70.0 ° ( 3 s.f)

ii) use either tan or cos to find the adjacent (wall)

using TOA, tan:

tan ( 68.96) = 2.8/ adj.

2.8 / adj. = tan (68.96)

adj. × tan (68.96) = 2.8

adj = 2.8/ tan (68.96)

adj = 1.0770...

adj. = 1.08 ( 3 sf)

base = 1.08 m

or you could rather simply work this out using Pythagoras Theorem:

where hyp. is c², the base is b² and height is a²;

c² = a² + b²

b² = c² - a²

b² = (3)² - (2.8)²

b² = 1.16

b = √1.16

b = 1.0770

b = 1. 08 m ( 3sf)

you can give your answer to 3 sf or 2 sf.

hope this helps you!

Answers

50 oz. of 12% sugar and 30 oz. of 20% sugar is needed to produce 80 oz. of 15% sugar.

Equation

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more numbers and variables.

Let x represent the amount of 12% sugar and y represent the amount of 20% sugar need to produce 80 oz. of 15% sugar. Hence:

x + y = 80   (1)

Also:

0.12x + 0.2y = 0.15(80)   (2)

From both equations:

x = 50, y = 30

50 oz. of 12% sugar and 30 oz. of 20% sugar is needed to produce 80 oz. of 15% sugar.

Juanita needs at least $58 to buy new shoes;

meaning, the minimum cash Juanita should have should be $58 and above.

Simply put,

[tex]\tt C\geq 58[/tex]

[tex]---> \tt 25+11t\geq 58[/tex]

[tex]\tt --->11t\geq 58-25[/tex]

Answer:

w = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

18+4w=6w

Rearrange terms

4w + 18 = 6w

Subtract 18 from both sides of the equation

4w+18-18=6w-18

Simplify

4w = 6w-18

Subtract 6w from both sides of the equation

4w-6w=6w-18-6w

Simplify

-2w=-18

Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

-2w/-2=-18/-2

w = 9

If you're good at math, please help: Find the constants a and b such that the function is continuous on the entire real line.

Answers

Answers:

a = -2

b = -1

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

Explanation:

The first piece 5 must match up with the ax+b when x = -2, or else the function wouldn't be continuous at this junction.

Plug in x = -2 and set the result equal to 5

We end up with -2a+b = 5

Solving for b gets us b = 5+2a

--------------

The middle piece ax+b must also equal the third piece -5 when x = 3 to ensure the second junction is continuous.

This leads us to the equation 3a+b = -5

Apply substitution and solve for 'a'

3a+b = -5

3a+5+2a = -5

5a+5 = -5

5a = -5-5

5a = -10

a = -10/5

a = -2 is one of the answers

Then use this to find b

b = 5+2a

b = 5+2(-2)

b = 5-4

b = -1 is the other answer
