The starting line up for a basketball team is to consist of two forwards and three guards. Two brothers are on the team. Matthew is a forward and Tony a guard. There are four forwards and six guards from which to choose the line up. If the starting players are chosen at random, what is the probability that the two brothers will end up in the starting line up
Answer:
0.25 = 25% probability that the two brothers will end up in the starting line up
Step-by-step explanation:
A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.
The order in which the players are chosen is not important, which means that the combinations formula is used to solve this question.
Combinations formula:
[tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
Desired outcomes:
Matthew plus another forward from a set of 3.
Tony plus another two guards from a set of 5.
So
[tex]D = C_{3,1}C_{5,2} = \frac{3!}{1!2!} \times \frac{5!}{2!3!} = 3*10 = 30[/tex]
Total outcomes:
Two forwards from a set of 4.
Three guards from a set of 6.
So
[tex]T = C_{4,2}C_{6,3} = \frac{4!}{2!2!} \times \frac{6!}{3!3!} = 6*20 = 120[/tex]
What is the probability that the two brothers will end up in the starting line up?
[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{30}{120} = 0.25[/tex]
0.25 = 25% probability that the two brothers will end up in the starting line up

One year, Alex bought an antique car for his birthday. During the first year he owned it, the
value of the car gained 10%. During the second year, the value of the car gained another
15% from the previous year. If the value of the car is now $37,950.00, how much did Alex
originally pay for his car?
Answer:
28462.5
Step-by-step explanation:
During the first year it gained 10% and during his second year he gained 15% so you first add those and you get 25%.
Then you multiply 25% with 37,950.
25/100 * 37950 = 948,750/100
= 9487.5
To get the original amount you subtract 9487.5 from 37,950
37,950 - 9487.5 = 28462.5
So the original amount was 28462.5

Find the area of the figure.
A =
Is it m, m2, or m3
Answer:
348 m^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is made up of a rectangle 24 m by 12 m, and a triangle with a 24 m base and a 5 m height.
A = LW + bh/2
A = 24 m * 12 m + (24 m)(5 m)/2
A = 288 m^2 + 60 m^2
A = 348 m^2
what is the area of the trapezoid?
Answer:
A = 70 mm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] h (b₁ + b₂)
where h is the perpendicular height and b₁, b₂ the parallel bases
Here h = 10, b₁ = 10, b₂ = 4 , then
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 10 × (10 + 4) = 5 × 14 = 70 mm²

Use the function f(x) = -16x² + 60x + 16 to answer the questions.
Part A: Completely factor f(x). (2 points)
Part B: What are the x-intercepts of the graph of f(x)? Show your work. (2 points
Part C: Describe the end behavior of the graph of f(x). Explain. (2 points)
Part D: What are the steps you would use to graph f(x)? Justify that you can use the answers obtained in Part B and Part C to draw the graph
Here we have the quadratic function:
f(x) = -16*x^2 + 60*x + 16
We can see that it is in standard form:
y = a*x^2 + b*x + c
a) First we want to completely factorize the function f(x).
To do it, we first need to find the roots of f(x).
Remember that for a generic quadratic equation:
a*x^2 + b*x + c = 0
whit roots x₁ and x₂, the factorized form is:
a*(x - x₁)*(x - x₂)
And the roots are given by:
[tex]x = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4*a*c} }{2*a}[/tex]
Then for the case of f(x) = -16*x^2 + 60*x + 16, the roots are:
[tex]x = \frac{-60 \pm \sqrt{60^2 - 4*(-16)*16} }{2*(-16)} = \frac{-60 \pm 68}{-32}[/tex]
So the two roots are:
x₁ = (-60 + 68)/-32 = -0.25
x₂ = (-60 - 68)/-32 = 4
Then the factorized form is:
f(x) = -16*(x - 4)*(x + 0.25)
B) We already found the roots, which are:
x₁ = -0.25
x₂ = 4
These are the x-intercepts:
(-0.25, 0) and (4, 0)
C) We can see that the leading coefficient is negative.
This means that the arms of the graph go downwards, so as |x| increases, the value of f(x) tends to negative infinity.
D) To graph f(x) we can find some of the points of the graph (like the x-intercepts and some more of them) and then connect them with a parabola curve, the graph that you will get is the one that you can see below.

The lifetimes of light bulbs of a particular type are normally distributed with a mean of 350 hours and a standard deviation of 6 hours. What percentage of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean?
Answer:
By the Empirical Rule, approximately 68% of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.
Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
What percentage of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean?
By the Empirical Rule, approximately 68% of the bulbs have lifetimes that lie within 1 standard deviation to either side of the mean.
For a 13-person team, how does the actual weekly labor cost compare to the targeted labor cost?
The actual labor cost is $600 over the targeted labor cost.
Given that,
Work done by each person per week = 40 hours
Required labor hours per week = 600 hours
No. of workers in the team = 13
To find,
Actual weekly labor cost = ?
Procedure:
Actual weekly labor cost = No. of workers * no. of hours performed by them
[tex]= 13 * 40[/tex]
[tex]= 520 hours[/tex]
Given that,
[tex]Regular rate = $ 15.00 per hour[/tex]
[tex]Overtime rate = $ 22.50 per hour[/tex]
Thus,
Actual labor cost = (regular hours worked * regular rate) + (overtime * overtime rate)
[tex]= (520 * 15) + ([600 - 520] * 22.50)[/tex]
[tex]= $ 7,800 + $ 1,800[/tex]
[tex]= $ 9600[/tex]
Targeted Labor cost = $ 9,000 per week
Thus, option C i.e. the actual labor cost is $ 600 over the targeted labor cost.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the radius is 1. The parametric equations for the circle are
x = cosθ
y = sinθ
x:y = 3:1
tanθ = ⅓
cosθ = 3/√(1²+3²) = 3/√10
sinθ = 1/√10
