If a ants can dig b tunnels in c hours, how many tunnels can b ants dig in a hours?

Answer:

a) 0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.

b) 0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

c) 0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

Question a:

2/3 probability of not raining.

If not raining, 1/4 probability of heavy traffic.

1 - 0.25 = 0.75 = 3/4 probability of not late.

So

[tex]p = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} \times \frac{3}{4} = \frac{2}{16} = 0.125[/tex]

0.125 = 12.5% probability that it’s not raining and there is heavy traffic and I am not late.

b. What is the probability that I am late?

0.5 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and heavy traffic).

0.25 of (1/3)*(1/2) = 1/6(rainy and no traffic).

1/8 = 0.125 of (2/3)*(3/4) = 1/2(not rainy and no traffic).

0.25 of (2/3)*(1/4) = 1/6(not rainy and traffic). So

[tex]P(A) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} + 0.125\frac{3}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25 + 3*0.125 + 0.25}{6} = 0.2292[/tex]

0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

c. Given that I arrived late at work, what is the probability that it rained that day?

Event A: Late

Event B: Rained

0.2292 = 22.92% probability that I am late.

This means that [tex]P(A) = 0.2292[/tex]

Probability of late and rain:

0.5 of 1/6(rain and heavy traffic).

0.25 of 1/6(rain and no traffic). So

[tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.5\frac{1}{6} + 0.25\frac{1}{6} = \frac{0.5 + 0.25}{6} = \frac{0.75}{6} = 0.125[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.125}{0.2292} = 0.5454[/tex]

0.5454 = 54.54% probability that it rained that day.

The equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions

The given equation is:

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]

First, we determine the solutions

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} - 5= x - 8[/tex]

Add 5 to both sides

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 8 + 5[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{x - 1} = x - 3[/tex]

Square both sides

[tex]x - 1 = (x - 3)^2[/tex]

Expand

[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 3x - 3x + 9[/tex]

[tex]x - 1 = x^2- 6x + 9[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]x^2 - 6x - x + 9 + 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x^2 - 7x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Expand again

[tex]x^2 - 2x-5x + 10 = 0[/tex]

Factorize

[tex]x(x - 2) -5(x -2)= 0[/tex]

Factor out x - 2

[tex](x - 5)(x -2)= 0[/tex]

Split

[tex]x - 5=0[/tex] or [tex]x - 2 = 0[/tex]

[tex]x= 5[/tex] or [tex]x = 2[/tex]

The above values are valid values of x.

Hence, the equation has 2 valid solutions; no extraneous solutions

Answer:

D) a = - 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x -5y - 7 = 0

5y = 2x - 7

y = 2/5 x - 7

the slope of this line is therefore 2/5 (factor of x).

the perpendicular slope is then (exchange y and x and flip the sign) -5/2, which is then a and the factor of x.

Answer:

1.25 dollars- the value of each coffee

0.75 dollars- the value of each doughnut

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that value of one coffee is x dollars, when one doughnut costs y dollars. The value o 10 coffee is 10x, when 10 doughnuts cost 10y. The sum is 10x+10y and it is 20.

10x+10y= 20 (we can divide each part by 10)

x+y=2

2coffee cost  2x, 14 doughnuts cost 14y

2x+14y=13 (it can be divided by two)

x+7y=6.5

We have the system of equations x+y=2,  x+7y=6.5

Subtract the first equation from the second one (the left side of the first equation from the left side

x+7y - (x+y)= 6.5-2

6y=4.5

y=4.5/6= 3/4 = 0.75 dollars- the value of each doughnut

x=2-0.75=1.25 dollars- the value of each coffee

The best option for Kelsie to create a SMART goal is b) "I will get to work before 9 A.M. every day this month."

Option B captures the essence of a smart goal.  A smart goal has the following characteristics: specific, measurable, achievable or attainable, realistic or relevant, and time-bound.

1. Specific: A smart goal like option B is well-defined, clear, and unambiguous.

2. Measurable: A smart goal sets specific criteria that measure Kelsie's progress toward the accomplishment of her goal.  For example, any day that she does not get to work before 9 a.m. she knows that she does not achieve her work arrival goal for that day.

3. Achievable: Kelsie's goal becomes attainable and possible to achieve because there is a set time for her to arrive at her work.

4. Realistic: Kelsie's goal, which she set for this month, is within her reach.  It is realistic, and relevant to her purpose.

5. Time-bound:  Kelsie has set a clearly defined timeline, which creates the needed urgency for her to realize it.  It includes a starting date and a target date, which will encourage her to realize it.

Thus, option B is the correct option that meets the criteria of a SMART goal unlike options A, C, and D, which are ambiguous, unrealistic, and not time-bound.

Find the intersection of the two planes. Do this by solving for z in terms of x and y ; then solve for y in terms of x ; then again for z but only in terms of x.

-4x + 2y - z = 1   ==>   z = -4x + 2y - 1

3x - 2y + 2z = 1   ==>   z = (1 - 3x + 2y)/2

==>   -4x + 2y - 1 = (1 - 3x + 2y)/2

==>   -8x + 4y - 2 = 1 - 3x + 2y

==>   -5x + 2y = 3

==>   y = (3 + 5x)/2

==>   z = -4x + 2 (3 + 5x)/2 - 1 = x + 2

So if we take x = t, the line of intersection is parameterized by

r(t) = ⟨t, (3 + 5t )/2, 2 + t⟩

Just to not have to work with fractions, scale this by a factor of 2, so that

r(t) = ⟨2t, 3 + 5t, 4 + 2t⟩

(a) The tangent vector to r(t) is parallel to this line, so you can use

v = dr/dt = d/dt ⟨2t, 3 + 5t, 4 + 2t⟩ = ⟨2, 5, 2⟩

or any scalar multiple of this.

(b) (-1, -1, 1) indeed lies in both planes. Plug in x = -1, y = 1, and z = 1 to both plane equations to see this for yourself. We already found the parameterization for the intersection,

r(t) = ⟨2t, 3 + 5t, 4 + 2t⟩

Answer:

[tex]B =102[/tex]

[tex]Y = 32[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving (47):

To solve for B, we have:

[tex]B + 50 + 28 = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle

This gives

[tex]B + 78 = 180[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]B =- 78 + 180[/tex]

[tex]B =102[/tex]

Solving (48):

To solve for Y, we have:

[tex]X + Y+ Z = 180[/tex] --- sum of angles in a triangle

This gives

[tex]Y = 180 - X - Z[/tex]

Where

[tex]W+ X=180[/tex] -- angle on a straight line

Solve for X

[tex]X=180 -W[/tex]

[tex]X=180 -100 = 80[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]Y = 180 - X - Z[/tex]

[tex]Y = 180 - 80 - 68[/tex]

[tex]Y = 32[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:

[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]

Now we know that point D, which we can write as (x, y), is at a distance of 8 units from the origin.

Where the origin is written as (0, 0)

We also know that point D is 6 units away along the y-axis.

Then point D could be:

(x, 6)

or

(x, -6)

Now, let's find the x-value for each case, we need to solve:

[tex]8 = \sqrt{(x - 0)^2 + (\pm6 - 0)^2}[/tex]

notice that because we have an even power, we will get the same value of x, regardless of which y value we choose.

[tex]8 = \sqrt{x^2 + 36} \\\\8^2 = x^2 + 36\\64 - 36 = x^2\\28 = x^2\\\pm\sqrt{28} = x\\\pm 5.29 = x[/tex]

So we have two possible values of x.

x = 5.29

and

x = -5.29

Then the points that are at a distance of 8 units from the origin, and that are 6 units away along the y-axis are:

(5.29, 6)

(5.29, -6)

(-5.29, 6)

(-5.29, -6)

Answer:

The function with blue line (see attachment) represents the graph of [tex]f(x) = -4\cdot |x|[/tex] after it is translated 3 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically speaking, a translation in the y-direction is defined by the following expression:

[tex]g(x) = f(x) + k[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]g(x)[/tex] - Resulting function.

[tex]f(x)[/tex] - Original function.

[tex]k[/tex] - Translation factor ([tex]k > 0[/tex] - Translation in the +y direction/[tex]k< 0[/tex] - Translation in the -y direction).

If we know that original function is translated 3 units down and [tex]f(x) = -4\cdot |x|[/tex], then the resulting function is:

[tex]g(x) = -4\cdot |x|-3[/tex]

Lastly, we graph both original and resulting functions with the help of a graphing tool, whose outcome is presented in the image attached below:

Please notice that the red line represents the original function, whereas the blue line represents the resulting function.

Answer:

3.143

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you're rounded it to the third decimal, you look at the fourth one. And since the fourth one is 8, ur going round 2, which is the third decimal to 3.

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, to round three decimal place, we need to count three numbers after the dot.

Here..

the three numbers are 142

so after that we round it, so first of all we ignore 1 and, and focus on the number 2 and 4.

and if the number is below 5, it is rounded to the last number, but if the number is 5 or more than it, then we round it to the next number.

For example

142 - here we have 2, which is below 5, so we round it to '140'

where as if we have..

147 - here we have 7, which is above 7, so we round it to '150'

____________________________________________________________

So in this problem we round 142, so the number 2 is below 5 so it is round to 140

therefore the answer is - 3.14
