An ordinary fair die is a cube with the numbers 1 through 6 on the sides. Imagine that such a die is rolled twice in succession and that the faces of the 2 rolls are added together. This sum is recorded of single trial of a random experiment. Event A: The sum is greater than 8. Event B: the sum is not divisible by 5

Answers

Answer 1

The probability of event A is 5/18.

The probability of event B is 29/36.

What are the probabilities?

Probability is used to determine how likely it is that a random event would happen. The probability that the random event would happen would lie between 0 and 1.

The probability that the sum is greater than 8 = sample space that have a sum greater than 8 / total number of sample space

sample space that have a sum greater than 8 = (3,6) (4,5) (4,6) (5,4) (5,5) (5,6) (6,3) (6, 4) (6,5) (6,6) = 10

Total number of sample space = 36

The probability that the sum is greater than 8 = 10 / 36 = 5/18

The probability that the number is not divisible by 5 = sample spaces that is not divisible by 5 / total number of sample spaces

= 29 / 36

0.1538 = 15.38%.

How to calculate a probability?

The probability of an event in an experiment is obtained as the number of desired outcomes in the context of the experiment divided by the number of total outcomes in the context of the experiment.

The total number of notes in this problem is composed as follows:

7 notes of each of D, E, F and G.8 notes of each of A, B and C.

Hence the total number is of:

Total = 7 x 4 + 8 x 3 = 52 notes.

The desired number of outcomes is the number of notes with C, hence:

Desired = 8 notes.

Thus the probability is calculated as follows:

Probability = Desired/Total = 8/52 = 0.1538 = 15.38%.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

no idea

The number of oranges with first women are 200 and the number of oranges with other women are 100.

What is an equation?

In mathematics, an equation is a formula that expresses the equality of two expressions, by connecting them with the equals sign =.

Given that, 2 market women shared 300 oranges.

The share of first woman is twice the other.

Let the number of oranges with other women be x.

Then, the number of oranges with first women will be 2x.

Now, x+2x=300

3x=300

x=100

So, 2x=200

Therefore, the number of oranges with first women are 200 and the number of oranges with other women are 100.

Let ​f(x) = 1 / 2+3x and point P = (2 , 1/8)

a.) Use the following definition of the slope of the tangent line at x = a to find the slope of the line tangent to the graph of f at P.

m = lim f(a+h) - f(a) / h
tan h --> 0

b.) Determine an equation of the tangent line at P.

Answers

The slope is -3/(2+3a)² and the equation of the line is y - 1/8 = [-3/(2+3a)²](x - 2).

What is the slope?

The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

[tex]\rm m =\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

​f(x) = 1 / 2+3x and point P = (2 , 1/8)

f(x+h) = 1/(2 + 3a + 3h)

f(a) = 1/(2 + 3a)

m(tan) = [1/(2 + 3a + 3h) - 1/(2 + 3a)]/h

After simplifying:

m(tan) = -3/[(2+3a)(2+3a+3h)]

h = 0

m(tan) = -3/(2+3a)²

The equation of the line:

y - 1/8 = [-3/(2+3a)²](x - 2)

According to the product rule of logarithms, the given equation is written as,  log₄(x² + 13x + 40) = 1

Product rule of logarithm

Basically, the product rule states that the sum of two logarithms is equal to the product of the logarithms.  

And it is the first law and it can be represented as;

logₐ(x) + logₐ(y) = logₐ(xy)

Given,

Here we have the logarithmic equation log 4(x+8) + log 4(x+5) = 1

And we have to rewrite the equation.

Here we have the logarithmic equation,

=> log₄(x+8) + log₄(x+5) = 1

By using the product property of logarithms, 

We have to rewrite the equation as,

=> log₄(x+8)(x+5) = 1

Now, we have to expand (x+8)(x+3) using the FOIL Method.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) first we find the x and y intercepts. Remember the intercepts are where x=0 and y=0

2) To find the x-intercept, substitute y = 0 and solve for x.

given equation:  x +2y= -4

then substitute y=0    so

x+ 2(0) = -4    -> any number multiplied by 0 it will always equal zero

then,  it will be  x=-4

the coordinates will be (-4,0)

3) To find the y-intercept, substitute x =0 and solve for y.

given equation:  x +2y= -4

then substitute x=0    so

(0)+ 2y = -4    -> x disappears since is zero

then,  it will be  2y=-4

then we multiply by 2 :

2y/2 = -4/2

y=-2

the coordinates for the y-intercept will be (0,-2)

(b) Tickets for a raffle are placed in a box. The box contains 25 blue tickets and 20 red
tickets. Tickets are drawn at random from the box, one at a time and are not replaced.
What is the probability that:
(i) the first ticket drawn is red and the second ticket drawn is blue?

Answers

Probability of drawn ticket at random with the condition of first ticket drawn is red and for second ticket drawing blue is equal to 0.253.

As given in the question,

Number of blue tickets in a box is equal to 25

Number of red tickets in a box is equal to 20

Total number of tickets in a box = 25 + 20

                                                     =  45

Drawing a ticket one at a time and not replaced

Probability of drawing a ticket first is red and second drawn is blue

= ( 20 / 45 ) × ( 25 / 44 )

= ( 500 / 1980 )

= 0.2525..

= 0.253

Therefore, probability of drawn ticket at random with the condition of first ticket drawn is red and for second ticket drawing blue is equal to 0.253.

PLEASE HELP ASAP!!! Find the volume of a cube with the given side length.

1/5b^3

Answers

The volume of the cube is 1/125b⁹

How to determine the volume of the cube?

From the question, we understand that

Shape = Cube

Side length = 1/5b³

Rewrite the side length as

a = 1/5b³

The volume of a cube can be expressed as V = a³

where a is the length of any side

And v is the volume

Substitute the known values in the above equation So, we have the following equation

V = (1/5b³)³

Evaluate

V = 1/125b⁹

Hence, the volume is V = 1/125b⁹

A square with sides length x are cut out of each corner of a rectangular piece of cardboard measuring 5ft by 8ft. The resulting piece of cardboard is then folded into a box without a lid. Find the volume of the largest box that can be formed this way.

Answers

The volume of the largest box that can be made from the rectangular cardboard obtained by using the value of the derivative of the function for the volume at the extremum point is 18 cubic feet

What is an extremum point in mathematics?

An extremum of a function is the point where the value of the function is a maximum or a minimum.

The side length of the cut out squares = x

The width of the rectangular cardboard = 5 feet

The length of the rectangular cardboard = 8 feet  

The length of the side of the cut square = 8 - 2·x

Width of the side of the cut square = 5 - 2·x

Height of the cut square = x

Volume of the cut square, V = (8 - 2·x) × (5 - 2·x) × x = 4·x³ - 26·x² + 40·x

When the volume of the box is largest, we have;[tex]V' = \dfrac{d}{dx} \left(4\cdot x^3 - 26\cdot x^2 + 40\cdot x\right) = 12\cdot x^2 - 52\cdot x + 40=0[/tex]

12·x² - 52·x + 40 = 0

3·x² - 13·x + 10 = 0

Which gives;

(3·x - 10)·(x - 1) = 0

The dimensions of the cut square that gives the maximum volume are therefore;

x = 1 or x = 10/3

When x = 10/3, we have;

V = (8 - 2×(10/3)) × (5 - 2×(10/3)) × (10/3) ≈ -200/27 < 0

When x = 1, we have;

V = (8 - 2×1) × (5 - 2×1) × 1 = 18

The value of x that gives the maximum volume is therefore, x = 1

The dimensions of the box that give the maximum volume are therefore;

Height = x = 1

Length = 8 - 2×1 = 6

Width = 5 - 2 × 1 = 3

The dimensions of the box that gives the maximum volume are;

Height = 1 ft

Length = 6 ft

Width = 3 ft

The volume of the largest box that can be formed is 18 cubic feet
