If you randomly select a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden," what is the probability that a vowel is randomly selected
Answer:
12/27
Step-by-step explanation:
Count all letters and all vowels then divide vowels by letters
The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.
What is the probability of an event in an experiment?The probability of any event suppose A, in an experiment is given as:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
How to solve the given question?In the question, we are given an experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden".
We are asked to find the probability that the selected letter is a vowel.
Let the event of selecting a vowel from the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden" be A.
We can calculate the probability of event A by the formula:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
The number of outcomes favorable to event A (n) = 12 (Number of vowels in the phrase)
The total number of outcomes in the experiment (S) = 27 (Number of letters in the phrase).
Now, we can find the probability of event A as:
P(A) = 12/27 = 4/9
∴ The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.

Step-by-step explanation:
Angles One angle is 4º more than three times another. Find
the measure of each angle if
a. they are complements of each other.
b. they are supplements of each other.
[tex] \Large{ \boxed{ \bf{ \color{purple}{Solution:}}}}[/tex]
Let the smaller angle be x
Then, Larger angle would be x + 4°
Case -1:❍ They are complementary angles.
This means, they add upto 90°So,
➙ x + x + 4° = 90°
➙ 2x + 4° = 90°
➙ 2x = 86°
➙ x = 86°/2 = 43°
Then, x + 4° = 47°
So, Our required answer:
Smaller angle = 43°Larger angle = 47°Case -2:❍ They are supplementary angles.
This means, they add upto 180°So,
➙ x + x + 4° = 180°
➙ 2x + 4° = 180°
➙ 2x = 176°
➙ x = 176°/2 = 88°
Then, x + 4° = 92°
So, Our required answer:
Smaller angle = 88°Larger angle = 92°✌️ Hence, solved !!

Write the equations, after translating the graph of y = |x+2|: one unit up,
Answer:
y = |x + 2| + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Parent Graph: f(x) = a|bx + c| + k
a is vertical stretch/shrink
b is horizontal stretch/shrink
c is horizontal movement left/right
k is vertical movement up/down
Since we are given an equation and we want to move it 1 unit up (vertical movement up), we only manipulate k:
y = |x + 2| + k
k = 1
y = |x + 2| + 1
Answer:
y = |x+2| + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation will be y = |x+2| + 1.
By translating the graph one unit up, the equation will simply change by adding +1 to the graph, outside of the absolute value part.

The state of Georgia is divided up into 159 counties. Consider a population of Georgia residents with mutually independent and equally likely home locations. If you have a group of n such residents, what is the probability that two or more people in the group have a home in the same county
Answer:
[tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
number of counties = 159
n number of people are mutually independent and equally likely home locations
considering the details given in the question
n ≤ 159
The number of ways for people ( n ) will live in the different counties (159) can be determined as [tex](\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right} )[/tex]
since the residents are mutually independent and equally likely home locations hence there are : [tex]159^{n}[/tex] ways for the residents to live in
therefore the probability = [tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]

for the functions f(x) = 4x^4+4x^3-8x^2-13x-5 and g(x) = x+1, find (f/g)(x) and (f/g)(2)
Answer:
(f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5(f/g)(2) = 11Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5
g(x) = x + 1
To find (f/g)(2) first find (f/g)(x)
To find (f/g)(x) factorize f(x) first
That's
f(x) = 4x⁴ + 4x³ - 8x² - 13x - 5
f(x) = ( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)
So we have
[tex] (f/g)(x) = \frac{( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)}{x + 1} [/tex]
Simplify
We have
(f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5To find (f/g)(2) substitute 2 into (f/g)(x)
That's
(f/g)(2) = 4(2)³ - 8(2) - 5
= 4(8) - 16 - 5
= 32 - 16 - 5
= 11
(f/g)(2) = 11Hope this helps you

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1

= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1
= √∑ [(0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)² + (0.17)² + (-0.13)² + (-0.23)² + (-0.03)² + (0.07)²] / 9
= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%
Yes, the limited data listed here shows evidence of stealing by the security service company's employees because there is a significant difference in the variation.

Suppose that a polynomial function of degree 4 with rational coefficients has 6, 4, 6i as zeros. Find the other zero
Answer:
-6i
Step-by-step explanation:
Complex roots have to come in conjugate pairs
So if we have 6i as a root, we must have -6i as a root
Answer:
-6i
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello, because this polynomial function has real coefficients and 6i is a zero, the conjugate of 6i is a zero as well. It means -6i is a zero.
The degree is 4 the number of zeroes is less or equal to 4 and we have already, 6, 4, 6i and -6i. So we have all the zeroes.

2) What is the largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford?
Answer:
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford = 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following information :
Initial hourly rate = $65
Hourly rate = $28
Number of hours worked (whole number) = H
Maximum budgeted amount to spend = $250
Therefore ;
(Initial charge + total charge in hours) should not be more than $250
$65 + ($28*H) < $250
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford :
65 + 28H < 250
28H < 250 - 65
28H < 185
H < (185 / 28)
H < 6.61
Sinve H is a whole number, the number of hours he can afford is 6 hours

A car enters a turnpike 22 miles north of a town. The car teavels north at an average speed of 64 miles per hour. How far is the car from the town after 4 hours? Explain how you can use linear function to solve this problem. Then, solve the problem.
Answer:
distance traveled can be modeled by a linear functionthe car is 260 miles north of townStep-by-step explanation:
a) When the speed is constant, the distance traveled is proportional to the travel time, a linear relationship. The distance traveled can be added to the initial distance to obtain the total distance (from town). This relation is a linear function. It can be modeled by the equation ...
d(t) = 4 + 64t . . . where t is travel time in hours, d(t) is the distance in miles
b) After 4 hours, the distance north of town is ...
d(4) = 4 +64(4) = 260
The car is 260 miles from the town after 4 hours.
Answer: Distance is a function of time. The constant rate of change is 64. Write the equation y = 64x + 22. Substitute 4 in for x to get 278 miles.

Gail bought 5 pounds of oranges and 2 pounds of bananas for $14. Her husband later bought 3 pounds of oranges and 6 pounds of bananas for $18. What was the cost per pound of the oranges and the bananas?
Answer:
1 pound of Oranges = $2
1 pound of Bananas = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
O = Oranges
B = Bananas
=> 5o + 2b = 14
=> 2b = 14 - 5o
=> b = 14/2 - 5/2o
=> b = 7 - 2.5o
3o + 6b = 18
=> 3o + 6( 7 - 2.5o ) = 18
=> 3o + 42 - 15o = 18
=> -12o + 42 = 18
=> -12o = -24
=> -o = -2
=> o = 2
One pound of oranges costs $2.
So,
5 (2) + 2b = 14
=> 10 + 2b = 14
=> 2b =4
=> b = 2
One pound of bananas also costs $2.

The discriminant D = b^2 - 4ac tells us the nature of the roots for any quadratic in the form ax^2+bx+c = 0
There are three cases
If D < 0, then there are no real number roots and the roots are complex numbers.If D = 0, then we have one real number root. The root is repeated twice so it's considered a double root. This root is rational if a,b,c are rational.If D > 0, then we get two different real number roots. Each root is rational if D is a perfect square and a,b,c are rational.Carla drove her truck 414 miles on 18 gallons of gasoline. How many miles did she drive per gallon?
Answer:
23 miles per gallon
Step-by-step explanation:
414 miles = 18 gallons

=> 1 gallon = 23 miles
So, she drove 23 miles per gallon.
What is the solution of the linear equation? LaTeX: 5k\:+\:3.8\:=\:3k\:+\:95 k + 3.8 = 3 k + 9 Group of answer choices 26 6.4 .065 2.6
Answer:
[tex]k = 2.6[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]5k + 3.8 = 3k + 9[/tex]
Required
Solve
[tex]5k + 3.8 = 3k + 9[/tex]
Collect like terms
[tex]5k -3k+ 3.8 = 3k -3k + 9[/tex]
[tex]2k+ 3.8 = 9[/tex]
Subtract 3.8 from both sides
[tex]2k+ 3.8 - 3.8= 9 - 3.8[/tex]
[tex]2k= 9 - 3.8[/tex]
[tex]2k = 5.2[/tex]
Divide through by 2
[tex]k = 5.2/2[/tex]
[tex]k = 2.6[/tex]
A passenger train traveled 180 miles in the same amount of time it took a freight train to travel 120 miles. The rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Find the rate of the passenger train.
Answer:
The passenger train is moving at 45 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the amount of time it took the two trains to travel the distance = t.
Since the two trains traveled the distance at the same time,
Rate of the passenger train =[tex]\frac{180}{t}[/tex]
Rate of the freight train = [tex]\frac{120}{t}[/tex]
Where t is in hours.
From the problem, we can see that the rate of the freight train was 15 miles per hour slower than the rate of the passenger train. Mathematically, we can represent this as
[tex]\frac{120}{t}= \frac{180}{t}-15[/tex]
from the above equation, we can now get our value for t as
[tex]\frac{120-180}{t}=-15\\\frac{-60}{t}=-15\\t=4 hours[/tex]
We have our time of travel for the two trains as 4 hours.
The rate of the passenger train can now be calculated by 180/4 = 45 miles per hour
