A drawer contains 3 tan sweaters and two black sweaters. You randomly choose two sweaters. What is the probability that both sweaters are black?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A = event that you select a black sweater
P(A) = 2/5 since there are 2 black out of 2+3 = 5 total

After you make a selection, we have the event
B = event that you select another black sweater assuming event A has happened already

P(B) = 1/4 because there's 1 black sweater left out of 5-1 = 4 left over

Multiply the probabilities
P(A and B) = P(A)*P(B)
P(A and B) = (2/5)*(1/4)
P(A and B) = 2/20
P(A and B) = 1/10

The answer as a fraction is 1/10
In decimal form, it is 0.1
As a percent, the answer is 10%

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

  • x+20%=24
  • x+x*20/100=24
  • x+0.2x=24

  • x=24/1.2
  • x=20

Need help please show how you did it.

Answers

Answer:

(0, 1).

Method 1 (Substitution):

Substituting our two y's, we get the following:

x^2 + 5x + 1 = x^2 + 2x + 1 \Rightarrow 3x = 0 \Rightarrow x = 0

Thus, the only set of solutions is (0, 1). A quick sketch (either by hand or on Desmos) can confirm this.

Method 2 (Elimination):

We have two equations. We'll let the top one be equation 1 and the bottom one be equation 2. Eliminating as many variables as we can, we subtract (2) from (1) to get:

0 = 3x => x = 0.

So the only set of solutions is (0, 1).

Method 3 (Gaussian elimination):

We can place this in an augmented matrix and row reduce.

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&5&1 & 1\n1&2&1 & 1\end{array}\right]

Row reducing this gives us:

\left[\begin{array}{cccc}1&5&1 & 1\n0&3&0 & 0\end{array}\right]

This tells us that the only solution for x is x = 0 (since we read this as "3x = 0") and thus, the only solution we get is (0, 1).

Horizontal translations
 Suppose that h> 0
 To graph y = f (x + h), move the graph of h units to the left.
 We have then:
 G (x) = f (x + h)
 G (x) = (x + 5) ^ 2
 Answer:
 
The graph of G (x) is given by:
 
G (x) = (x + 5) ^ 2
 
option D
From the graphs we can observe that G(x) is 5 units to the left of F(x). 

This means a horizontal translation of 5 units to the left of F(x) will result in G(x). Such a translation can be obtained from adding 5 to each x in the equation.

So,

G(x) = F(x+5)

F(x) = (x+5)²

So the correct answer is option D

Solve for n+4 + n/6=16​

Answers

Answer:

n = 10.286      aprox.

Step-by-step explanation:

n+4 + n/6 = 16

n/6 = 16 - 4 - n

n = 6(12-n)

n = 6*12 + 6*-n

n = 72 - 6n

n + 6n = 72

7n = 72

n = 72/7

n = 10.286       aprox.

verify:

10.286 + 4 + (10.286/6) = 16

14.286 + 1.714 = 16

2x+y=7 for y neeedd help

Answers

Answer:

  • y = -2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y:

  • 2x + y = 7

Add - 2x to both sides

  • 2x + y - 2x = 7 - 2x
  • y = 7 - 2x

or

  • y = -2x + 7
