A box contains 6 black pens, 4 blue pens, and 7 red pens. Without looking, Clarissa randomly picks a black pen out of the box. If she chooses another pen out of the box without replacing the first one, what is the probability that she will pick a black pen both times? Write your answer as a percent.
Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

31.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial reading:

In the box, there are:

6 Black pens4 blue pens7 red pens

Total number of pens in the box = 6 + 4 + 7

= 17

If we count pens as outcomes the total number of possible outcomes are 17.

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

New reading:

Clarissa takes out a black pen from the box.

That reduces the number of black pens by 1 which increases the total number of pens by 1 as well.

So now:

Number of black pens = 6 - 1 = 5 Total number of pens = 17 - 1 = 16

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

Probability:

[tex] \boxed{ \mathsf{probability = \frac{favorable \: outcomes}{total \: outcomes} }}[/tex]

If we want her to pick up a black pen, and she ends up picking one. So, we can say that the outcome is in our favor.

That makes it,

the number of favorable outcomes = number of black pens

= 5

and total outcomes = Total number of pens

= 16

[tex] \implies\mathsf{probability = \frac{5}{16} }[/tex]

For showing it as some percent we'll just multiply the fraction by 100

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \frac{5}{16} \times 100 }[/tex]

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

As a percent:

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \underline{ 31.25 \: \% } }[/tex]

What is the slope of the line on the graph

Answers

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's look at two points on this line (1, 5), and (0, -1)

Using the slope formula ([tex]\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex])

[tex]\frac{((5) - (-1))}{(1)-(0)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{6}{1}[/tex]

Hope it helps :)

Answer:

Well you could count and use the Rise/Run method, or you could use the Slope formula (x2 - x1) / (y2 - y1)

From point (0, -1) to point (1, 6) would look like this

(1 - 0) / (6 + 1) = 1/7, so your slope is 1/7

Since you already have you y-intercept (where x is 0), your whole equation would be this:

y = 1/7x - 1

Make x the subject of the formula
dx - t = 8

Answers

Answer:

x = (8+t)/d

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to make x the subject of the formula, you would want it along. so you should move the t to the other side, which will get you dx = 8+t, then you will have to divide both sides by d to get the x along, and in this case, you will get x = (8+t)/d

The given formula can be written as x = (8 + t)/d.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation in two variable has the general form as y = ax + by + c, where a, b and c are integers and a, b ≠ 0.

It can be represented as a straight line on a graph.

The given formula is as below,

dx - t = 8

Since, it is a linear equation with variable x. It can be rewritten as follows,

dx - t = 8

=> dx = 8 + t

=> x = (8 + t)/d

Hence, by making x as the subject the given formula becomes as x = (8 + t)/d.

A 6.50 m long ladder leans against a house wall. The ladder forms an angle of inclination a of 72 ° with the horizontal ground. How high is the ladder against the wall?

Answers

6.182m against the wall from the ground

Well this is a tricky one though but very easy.

So we have on our hands a 6.50m long ladder leaning against a wall at an angle of 72°, as illustrated in the diagram above. (please parden my hand writing).

So we are to find how high the ladder is against the wall, which from the diagram I labelled as y, and to find y we have to use something called SOHCAHTOA. This basically is use in calculating some lengths of a right angle triangle when Pythagoras therom fails u .

So from SOHCAHTOA, we are going to use SOH

What this basically means is

The sin of an angel(for example x) can be found by dividing the opposite to the angle by the hypotenuse. Since we are finding for y

Sin(72°) = y/6.50, if we should cross multiple the we will be having

Y = sin(72°) * 6.50

After evaluating using your calculator,

You will have y = 6.182

What is the equation of a line with a y-intercept at (0, 2) and a slope of 3? a. y = 2 x + 3 c. y = 3 x + 2 b. y = 3 x minus 2 d. y = negative 2 x + 3

Answers

Answer:

C) y = 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the slope of the line, m = 3, and the coordinates of the y-intercept, (0, 2).

We can substitute these values into the following slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, where:

m = slope

b = the y-coordinate of the y-intercept.

Therefore, the correct answer is option C, where it shows the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is: y = 3x + 2.

|-4-r|=4

Answers

Answer:

r = 0 and r = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

|-4-r|=4

-4 = -4-r = 4

0 = - r = 8

0 = r = -8

When you have absolute value signs, to get rid of the absolute value signs and find the value of the term, you simply add another eqaul sign (=), and add a negative in front (- =). If it is already set to equal a negative, there isn't any solution.

|x| = 4

-4 = x = 4

So x would equal 4 and -4 for this example.

Another example:

|x|=-5

Because it's equal to a negative, the solution is automatically no solution.

The actual answer is r = 0 and r = -8

Answers

Answer:

x=–4, y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

adding the 2 equations, we see the X's go away and we are left with: 10y=10. we can simplify and solve for y by dividing both sides by 10 and we are left with y=1

plugging 'y=1' into the fist equation we get: -7x+6=34. we can now solve for x by subtracting 6 from both sides and dividing both side by –7, so we are left with: x=–4

we can check by plugging both x and y into one of the original equations:

-7(-4)+6(1)=34

28+6=34
