Edward has four pearls – two white and two black – which he can distribute as he chooses between two identical bags. He must then choose a bag at random and pick one pearl at random from the bag he chose. If Edward distributes the pearls so as to maximize his chances of picking a black pearl, what is the probability that Edward will pick a black pearl?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the length of a we use the cosine rule

That's

a² = b² + c² - 2bc cos A

We have

a² = AB ² + AC ² - 2(AB)(AC) cos A

From the question

AB = 6

AC = 5

A = 20°

Substituting the values into the above formula we have

a² = 6² + 5² - 2(6)(5) cos 20

a² = 36 + 25 - 60cos 20

a² = 61 - 56.38

a² = 4.62

Find square root of both sides

a = √4.62

We have the final answer as

Let f(x) = y

y = log3(x+1) - 1

Plug x in y and y in x

x = log3(y+1) - 1

x + 1 = log3(y+1)

3^(x+1) - 1 = y

[tex]y = 3^{x+1}[/tex] - 1

This is the inverse function.

Answer:

y = [tex]3^{(x+1)}[/tex] -1

Answer:

-13a

Step-by-step explanation:

Since -8 and -5 have like variables, you can subtract them. -8-5 is -13, so the answer is -13a.

Answer:

-13a

Step-by-step explanation:

These two numbers are already like terms, so you can subtract it easily.  

First, don't look at the a.

-8-5= -13 because if something is negative and gets subtracted, that means it'll still be negative.

Now that we now it equals -13, we can add the variable a back onto the answer.  We get -13a.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve a system of three equations by multiplying each equation by a number that allows you to add or suvtract the same equation together by eliminating the x or y variable

Answer:

To use elimination to solve a system of three equations with three variables, follow this procedure:

Write all the equations in standard form cleared of decimals or fractions.

Choose a variable to eliminate; then choose any two of the three equations and eliminate the chosen variable.

Select a different set of two equations and eliminate the same variable as in Step 2.

Solve the two equations from steps 2 and 3 for the two variables they contain.

Substitute the answers from Step 4 into any equation involving the remaining variable.

Check the solution with all three original equations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you want to isolate the variable you are look for, 'l'. First subtract [pi]L from both sides. Then subtract S from both sides.

-[pi]L+S=[pi]r(superscript)2 ->

-[pi]L=[pi]r(superscript)2-S

Now, since you have your variable 'l', you want to remove the [pi] away from your variable. To do this, multiply by negative 1 divided by pi, or -1/[pi].

L=S-r(superscript)2.

Therefore, the answer is C.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]s = \pi .l \: + \pi. {r}^{2} [/tex]

Make the term including 'l' stand alone.

[tex]s - \pi. {r }^{2} = \pi.l[/tex]

Now make L stand alone by dividing through by pi.

[tex] \frac{s - \pi. {r}^{2} }{\pi} = l[/tex]

This is the same as

[tex] \frac{s}{\pi} - {r}^{2} = l[/tex]

Answer:

x = 5, y = 8, z = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite sides of a parallelogram are congruent so to find x:

x + 7 = 3x - 3

-2x = -10

x = 5

To find y:

y + 2 = 2y - 6

-y = -8

y = 8

Therefore, z = x - y = 5 - 8 = -3.

Answer:

140°

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex] \because m\widehat{BG} = 360\degree - m\widehat{GCB} \\

\therefore m\widehat{BG} = 360\degree - 300\degree \\

\therefore m\widehat{BG} = 60\degree \\

\because m\widehat{BGD} = m\widehat{BG}

+m\widehat{GD}\\

\therefore m\widehat{BGD} = 80\degree+60\degree\\

\therefore m\widehat{BGD} = 140\degree\\

\because m\angle BAD = m\widehat{BGD} \\

\huge\purple {\boxed {\therefore m\angle BAD =140\degree}} [/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sides exist in a ratio to one another, then when you multiply some number x by both the length and the width, they still remain as a ratio. The length will be 3x and the width will be 1x. The perimeter formula is

P = 2L + 2W and since our perimeter is 72 and we have both the length and the width, we can fill in the formula and solve for x:

72 = 2(3x) + 2(1x) and

72 = 6x + 2x and

72 = 8x so

9 = x.

If x = 9, then 1x = 9 and 3x = 27. Let's check the perimeter against those side lengths.

P = 2(3x) + 2(1x) and

P = 2(27) + 2(9) and

P = 54 + 18 so

P = 72

and you're done! (The bold numbers above are the width and length, respectively.)

Answer:well the answer is 2 hours 16 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find your plane's rate of speed, you calculate the distance ... amount of time in the air (2 hours and 16 minutes) to.

Answer:

30.51 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The distance from the point to the base of the tower = 42 m, the angle of elevation = 36°.

According to sine rule if a,b,c are the sides of a triangle and its respective opposite angles are A, B, C. Therefore:

[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}=\frac{c}{sin(C)}[/tex]

Let the height of the tower be a and the angle opposite the height be A = angle of elevation = 36°

Also let the  distance from the point to the base of the tower be b = 42 m, and the angle opposite the base of the tower be B

To find B, since the angle between the height of the tower and the base is 90°, we use:

B + 36° + 90° = 180° (sum of angles in a triangle)

B + 126 = 180

B = 180 - 126

B = 54°

Therefore using sine rule:

[tex]\frac{a}{sin(A)} =\frac{b}{sin(B)}\\\\\frac{a}{sin(36)}=\frac{42}{sin(54)}\\\\ a=\frac{42*sin(36)}{sin(54)}\\ \\a=30.51\ meters[/tex]

The height of the tower is 30.51 meters

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The only place that the function is increasing is [-3, -1] (learn your interval notation). At x = -3, y = -11; at x = -2, y = -6 (-6 is greater than -11); and at x = -1, y = -1 (-1 is greater than -6). The next x value, 0, returns a y value of -2. But -2 is less than -1, the value before it, so it begins deceasing again at x = 0.

Based on the values given in the table for f(x), the interval of x-values that show the function increasing is (-3, -1).

The value of f(x) was decreasing from 34 until it got to -11 where it then started to rise again. The relevant value of x here is -3.

The value then began to rise until it reached -1 where it then fell to -2. The x value here is -1.

The interval of x-values where the function is increasing is therefore (-3, -1).

Answer:

a(1):30%

(2):2135.34

(3):15000

Step-by-step explanation:

a(1):the total is 18750 and 5625 was not taxed therefore 5625 of 18750 was not taxed so get the amount expressed as a percentage by multiplying by 100

{5625/18750}×100

(2):so get the tax from the taxable amount and the taxable amount is 13125 and the tax is 22% of it so (22/100)×13125=2887.5

she takes home the amount remaining after taxation so 18750-2887.5(tax)(don't subtract 5625)=15862.5

she receives the above amount in 52 equal amounts so divide 15862.5/52 to get one amount =305.048 (meaning that per week she receives one of the 52 equal amounts I guess)

(3):so the original salary before moving to A was 100% but after moving it increases by 25 so the salary is 125% =18750(don't deduct tax I guess) so it will be (100/125)×18750
