Probability is expressed as
number of favourable outcomes/total number of possible outcomes
Looking at the given scenario, the number os students that earned a grade of A is 5. Since we are concerned with these students, then, the number of favourable outcomes is 5.
The total number of students for all grades is 35. This means that the total number of possible outcomes is 35
Thus, the probability that a student earns a grade of A is
5/35
= 0.14
Problem 2: The area of a
rectangular desk is given
by the trinomial x²-7x-18.
What are the dimensions
of the desk? (10 points)
Answer: (x-9) and (x+2)
Step-by-step explanation:
You would first have to break the trinomial down into 2 factors.
Since there are two minuses in the trinomial, start off like this : (x- __) (x+__)
Now, what two numbers add to -7, and multiply to -18?
9 and 2, with one term being negative.
Since the 2nd term in the trinomial is a negative, there must be a number added that has a greater negative term than the other positive term, therefore, making 9 the negative term, since 2-9 is -7.
And -9 times 2 is -18.
Now fill in the blanks : (x-9)(x+2)
Since (x-9) and (x+2) are multiplied by each other, they are the dimensions of the desk, being L x W.
Now let's double check the factors:
(x-9)(x+2)
Distribute the terms.
x^2 +2x -9x -18
x^2-7x-18

John Baxley borrowed $25,000 for one year. He borrowed some at 13% interest and the rest at 50% interest. At the end of the year, he owed $36,000 in interest how much did he borrow at each rate?
The amount borrowed at 13% interest is $20,945.95.
The amount borrowed at 50% interest is $4,054.05.
How much is borrowed at each rate?The first step is to formulate a system of equations:
a + b = $25,000 equation 1
0.13a + 0.5b = (36,000 - 25,000
0.13a + 0.5b =11,000 equation 2
Where:
a = amount borrowed at 13% interest
b = amount borrowed at 50% interest
Take the following steps to determine the value of b:
Multiply equation 1 by 0.13
0.13a + 0.13b = 3,250 equation 3
Subtract equation 3 from equation 2
7,750 = 0.37b
b = $20,945.95
a = $25,000 - $20,945.95 = $4,054.05

A new model is to be built to serve the towns of Sunnyvale and Gloomington, who’s centers are 6 miles apart. The developers want to locate the mall not more than 3 miles from the center of Sunnyvale and also not more than 5 miles from the center of Gloomington. Drawl a simple map showing Sunnyvale, Gloomington, and all potential locations for the new mall, based on the given information. Be sure to show the scale of your map. Explain how you determine do the possible locations for the mall.
See explanation below
Explanation:
We are told the centres of the two towns are 6miles apart.
This means the distance between Sunnyvale and Gloomington = 6 miles.
We will draw a line with a distance of 6cm to indicate their distance apart.
The two end points of the line will indicate the location of Sunnyvale and Gloomington respectively.
For the developers to locate the mall not more than 3 miles from the center of Sunnyvale, we will draw a circle which has radius of 3cm. This way the mall doesn't exceed 3 miles from Sunnyvale.
For the developers to locate the mall not more than 5 miles from the center of Gloomington, we will draw a circle which has radius of 5cm. This way the mall doesn't exceed 5 miles from Gloomington.
The scale of the drawing will be 1cm represent 1 mile
You can use a compass(drawing tool) to draw the circles. adjusting the legs to suit the measurement of each radius.
The area under the each of the circles are all the possible locations of the map. The location of the new mall cannot go beyond the area under circles but can be within it.

For #5 - 7, using the given scale factor and center, dilate the following figures and state the new coordinates.
Given: A scale factor of 1/2 and center N of a figure is given.
Required: To dilate the given figure using the given scale factor and center.
Explanation: Dilation is a transformation, used to change the size of the given figure. If the value of dilation>1 then the new figure enlarges. If dilation<1 then the given figure contracts while a dilation=1 means that the new figure is of the same size.
Now here the center is given to be N. And the scaling factor is 1/2.
The coordinates of center N are (3,2). Point M is 2 units left and 4 units down from point N. Hence for dilation of a factor of 1/2, point M' will be 1 unit to the left and 2 units down from point N -
[tex]\begin{gathered} M^{\prime}=(3-1,2-2) \\ M^{\prime}=(2,0) \end{gathered}[/tex]Similarly, point O is 2 units to the right and 6 units down from point N. Hence for dilation of a factor of 1/2, point O' will be 1 unit to the right and 3 units down from point N.

triangle IJK with vertices I(-9-8),J(-5-6),and K(-7-3) is drawn on the coordinate grid below. what is the area in square units of triangle IJK
Here, we want to calculate the area of the given triangle
Mathematically, the product of the height and base of a triangle divided by 2 gives its area
Now, as we can see the shape, while IJ represents the base, KJ represents the height
We need to calculate the distance between these points before we can get the area of the triangle
To get the distances between the points, we have to use the distance formula
We can proceed with this as follows;
[tex]\begin{gathered} D\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(_{}x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ \\ \text{For IJ} \\ (x_1,y_1)\text{ = (-9,-8)} \\ (x_2,y_2)\text{ = (-5,-6)} \\ |IJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(-5+9)^2+(-6+8)^2} \\ |IJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{16\text{ + 4}} \\ |IJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{20} \\ \\ \text{For KJ} \\ (x_1,y_1)\text{ = (-7,-3)} \\ (x_2,y_2)\text{ = (-5,-6)} \\ |KJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{(-5+7)^2+(-6+3)^2} \\ |KJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{4+9} \\ |KJ|\text{ = }\sqrt[]{13} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, we have the area of the triangle as follows;

1. **Gabriella and Lisbet are selling bracelets and earrings to make money for their summer vacation. The bracelets will cost $2 and earrings will cost $3. They want to make at least $500 and would like to make less than 50 bracelets to make a profit. Graph the solution set to the system of linear inequalities in the coordinate plane below. Label your axes and create a scale. a. Is it possible for Gabriella and Lisbet to make a profit? Justify your answer using your graph above.
Answer:
It is possible for Gabriella and Lisbet to make a profit
Explanation:
Let's call x the number of bracelets that they will make and y the number of earrings that they will make.
If the bracelets will cost $2 and the earring will cost $3, they will make:
2x + 3y
Then, this quantity should be at least $500, so:
2x + 3y ≥ 500
Additionally, they would like to make less than 50 bracelets, so:
x < 50
So, the system of inequalities is:
2x + 3y ≥ 500
x < 50
Now, to graph the system, we need to identify the lines that separate the regions. So, for x < 50, we get that the line is x = 50, a vertical line that passes through the point (0, 50).
For 2x + 3y ≥ 500, we need to identify two points that belong to the line
2x + 3y = 500 as (250, 0) and (100, 100)
So, the graph of the inequalities is:
Therefore, the solution of the system is the yellow region. Since there is a region in the graph, Gabriella and Lisbet can make a profit.

Let y² = x² + sin(xy). Find using implicit differentiation.
By using implicit differentiation, we get dy/dx=(2x+cos(xy)y)/(-xcos(xy)+2y)
What is implicit differentiation?
Implicit differentiation is the process to finding the derivative of the implicit function.
We have given,
y^2=x^2+sin(xy)
Differentiate with respect to x, and using product rule
2y dy/dx=d/dx(x^2+sin(xy))
2y dy/dx=(dx^2)/dx+(dsin(xy))/dx
2y dy/dx=2x+cos(xy)(d(xy))/dx
2y dy/dx=2x+cos(xy)[y+x dy/dx]
2y dy/dx=2x+ycos(xy)+xcos(xy)dy/dx
2y dy/dx-xcos(xy) dy/dx=2x+ycos(xy)
On simplification, we get
dy/dx=(2x+xcos(xy))/(-xcos(xy)+2y)

When Andy Green broke the land speed record, his vehicle was traveling across a flat portion of the desert with a forward velocity of 341.11 m/s. How long would it take him at that velocity to travel 4.500 km?
Answer:
13.192 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to know the time to travel 4.500 km at a speed of 341.11 m/s.
Travel timeThe relation between time, speed, and distance is ...
time = distance/speed
time = (4500 m)/(341.11 m/s) ≈ 13.192 s
It would take Andy about 13.192 seconds to travel 4.500 km.
__
Additional comment
The distance of 4.500 km is rounded to the nearest meter, so may have an error of 0.5 meters. At 342.11 m/s, it takes about 1.47 ms to travel that distance. This suggests that timing to the nearest millisecond is consistent with the precision of the other numbers in the problem.
One could argue that speed is 5 significant figures, but distance is 4 significant figures. That suggests their ratio, time, is only accurate to 4 significant figures: 13.19 s. Analysis of the worst-case error in the ratio suggests that this reported value throws away some accuracy, so a better result is 13.192 s.

D) The graph of g(x) opens downward and is shifted to the left 6 units and up 3 units.
Answer:
C) The graph of g(x) opens downward and is shifted to the right 6 and up 3 units.
Step-by-step explanation:
You want to know what transformations are needed to form g(x) = –(x – 6)² + 3 from f(x) = x².
TransformationsThe function transformations we are typically concerned with are ...
translation horizontally and verticallyscaling horizontally and verticallyreflection across vertical and horizontal linesEach of these has a recognizable influence on the function.
TranslationTranslation by 'h' units to the right and 'k' units up transforms the function to ...
g(x) = f(x -h) +k
ScalingExpanding a graph horizontally by a factor of p and vertically by a factor of q transforms the function to ...
g(x) = q·f(x/p)
ReflectionReflecting a graph horizontally across the y-axis replaces x with -x.
Reflecting a graph vertically across the x-axis replaces f(x) with -f(x).
Given graphComparing g(x) = -(x -6)² +3 to the original f(x) = x², we see that ...
(h, k) = (6, 3)f(x) was replaced by -f(x)This means the graph was shifted right 6 units and up 3 units. The graph was reflected across the x-axis, so the curve opens downward.
Option c, The graph of g(x) opens downward and is shifted to the right 6 and up 3 units. is the correct answer.

Based on the given statement of hy⁰ = 0, the answer is B. The statement is false. The correct statement is hy⁰ = 1.
Why is the mathematical statement wrong?The statement given is that hy⁰ = 0. This is false because of the mathematical rule that whenever a number or figure is raised to the power of 0, the result would be that the answer is 1.
For instance:
