Each letter of the alphabet is written on a piece of paper and put in a hat. If a piece of paper is chosen at random, what is the probability that it will be a vowel?

The number of favorable outcomes is .

The number of possible outcomes is .

So P(vowel) = , or about percent.

Answers

Answer 1
Number of favourable outcomes = 5

Number of possible outcomes = 26

P(vowel) = 5/26

Answer: 5/26
Answer 2

The probability of pulling a vowel out of the hat is [tex]\frac{5}{26}[/tex]

The number of favorable outcomes is [tex]5[/tex]

The number of possible outcomes is [tex]26[/tex]

The number of possible outcomes is the size of the sample space.

Since the sample space

[tex]S=\{\text{all the letters of the alphabet in the hat}\}[/tex]

then, the number of possible outcomes is

[tex]|S|=26[/tex]

The number of favorable outcomes is possible number of vowels that can be gotten from the hat. Since the set of vowels

[tex]V=\{a,e,i,o,u\}[/tex]

then, the number of favorable outcomes is

[tex]|V|=5[/tex]

The probability of pulling a vowel out of the hat

[tex]P(V)=\frac{\text{number of favorable outcomes}}{number of possible outcomes}=\frac{5}{26}[/tex]

At sea, the distance to the horizon is directly proportional to the square root of the elevation of the observer. if a person who is 36 feet above the water can see 7.4 miles, find how far a person 64 feet above the water can see.

Answers

Distance is directly proportional to the square root of the elevation is important here.

The square root of 36 feet (the elevation) is 6 feet. 
Equation for direct proportion: y=kx (y is directly proportionate to x, k is the amount of proportion)

7.4 miles = 6 feet * k
7.4mi = 6feet* (1.233 * whatever the conversion rate is between feet and miles)
The same applies to 64: the square root of it will be directly proportionate to the distance.
√64 = 8

8feet*k = [thenumber_we_don't_know]miles

8*1.233 = {??}
= 9.84

The answer is 9.84.

The person 64 feet above the water can see 9.84 miles.

It is given in the question that the distance to the horizon is directly proportional to the square root of the elevation of the observer.

if the elevation of the observer be h and distance to the horizon be x then:

[tex]x=k\sqrt{h}[/tex]  where k is the constant of proportionality

from the given data:

[tex]7.4= k\sqrt{36}\\\\7.4=6k\\\\k=1.23[/tex]

So, if h = 64 feet then,

[tex]x=k\sqrt{h}\\\\x=1.23\sqrt{64}\\\\x=9.84 miles[/tex] is how far the person 64 feet above the water can see.

I think it's B. But I guessed
Answer:
b. [tex] \frac{ \pi }{4} or \frac{5 \pi }{4} [/tex]

Explanation:
Before we begin, remember that:
tan α =  [tex] \frac{sin \alpha }{cos \alpha } [/tex]

Now for the given, we have:
cos θ - tan θ * cos θ = 0
cos θ - [tex] \frac{sin (theta)}{cos (theta)} [/tex] * cos θ = 0
cos θ - sin θ = 0cos θ = sin θ
Now, divide both sides by cos θ, we get:
1 = tan θ

Following the ASTC rule, we know that the tan function is positive in the first and third quadrants.
This means that:
either θ = [tex] \frac{ \pi }{4} [/tex]

or θ = π + [tex] \frac{ \pi }{4} [/tex] = [tex] \frac{5 \pi }{4} [/tex]

Zack borrowed $1,087 for 12 months at 11 percent interest. If he must pay 11.00 per $100, what is Zack's monthly payment?

Answers

Since we know that Zack must pay $11.00 per $100 monthly, we just need to divide the total amount of the loan, $1,087, by $100 to check how many times he must pay $11.00 each month:

[tex] \frac{1087}{100} =10.87[/tex]

Now we know that he must pay $11.00 10.87 times each month, so the last thing we are going to do to find his monthly payment is multiply both quantities:
[tex]11.00*10.87=119.57[/tex]

We can conclude that Zack's monthly payment is $119.57

write a polynomial function of nth degree that has the given zeros

Answers

The answer is b thanks

A polynomial function of nth degree with given zeros, use the form f(x) = a (x - x1)(x - x2)...(x - xn), which is [tex]f(x) = x^3 - 2x2 - 5x + 6[/tex]

To write a polynomial function of the nth degree with given zeros, you can use the fact that a polynomial function f(x) with zeros at x1, x2, ..., xn can be expressed as:

f(x) = a (x - x1)(x - x2)...(x - xn)

Where 'a' is the leading coefficient, which can be any non-zero real or complex number, and (x - xi) are factors for each zero of the polynomial. If the polynomial is supposed to have a specific coefficient for the highest power term, then 'a' is that coefficient; otherwise, 'a' can be chosen freely to define the polynomial.

To illustrate with an example, if we had a polynomial of degree 3 with zeros at 1, -2, and 3, and we want the leading coefficient to be 1, our polynomial would be:

f(x) = (x - 1)(x + 2)(x - 3)

Expanding this product, we would get:

[tex]f(x) = x^3 - 2x2 - 5x + 6[/tex]

This polynomial of third degree has the specified zeros and a leading coefficient of 1.

Circle 1 is center at (-4,5) and has a radius of 2 centimeters. Circle 2 is centered at (2,1) and has a radius of 6 centimeters. What transformations can be applied to Circle 1 to prove the circles are similar?

Answers

Let's denote the circle with small radius circle A and the circle with bigger radius as circle B. In order to perform the translation, you should follow these steps

1) Draw a vector from point A to B

2)Dilate circle A to circle B. It means translating mapping circle A to circle B.

3)By this way, we can claim that circles A and B are similar.

And the similarity ratio is [tex] \frac{ r_{2} }{ r_{1} } = \frac{6}{2} =3[/tex]

If I get 3 problems wrong on a 12 question math paper, what grade would I get?

Answers

If you think about it if you get 3 wrong then you would've got 9 right. so 9/12 is 75% You would've gotten a C. 

If you got 3 questions wrong on a 12 problem math paper, to figure out how many you got right you must subtract the number you got incorrect (3) from the total number (12).

12-3=9

To figure out your grade, you have to divide how many you got correct (9-see above) by the total number of questions (12).

9/12 = 0.75

If you multiply this decimal by 100, you get the equivalent percentage of 75%.

Therefore, you would have gotten a 75% on the paper.

A bag of uninflated balloons contains 10 red, 12 blue, 15 yellow and 8 green balloons. A balloon is drawn at random, what is the probability of drawing a red balloon?

Answers

(28.57%)

We have been given that a bag of uninflated balloons contains 10 red, 12 blue, 15 yellow and 8 green balloons.

We need to find the probability of drawing a red balloon.

We know that probability is given by

[tex]\\ \text{Probability =} \frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}[/tex]

Since we know that there are 10 red balloons. Therefore, our number of favorable outcomes is 10.

In order to find the total number of outcomes, we will add balloons of all colors.

Therefore, total outcomes are  = [tex]10+12+15+8 = 45[/tex]

We can now substitute the values of favorable outcomes and total outcomes in order to find the required probability.

[tex]\\ \text{Probability =} \frac{\text{10}}{\text{45}} = \frac{2}{9}[/tex]

How do you write an equation for a circle with center (2,4) and passes through point (5, 9)?

Answers

The equation of a circle is:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² =  radius²

where (h, k) is the center. 

We can plug in the given information from the description and solve for the radius.

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = radius²

To find the radius, we do the distance formula from the center to the point on the circle. 

Distance = [tex] \sqrt{ (Y2-Y1)^{2} + (X2 - X1)^{2} } [/tex]

D = [tex] \sqrt{ (9 - 4)^{2} + (5 - 2)^{2} } [/tex]
D = [tex] \sqrt{ 5^{2} + 3^{2} } [/tex]
D = [tex] \sqrt{25 + 9} [/tex]
D = [tex] \sqrt{34} [/tex]

That is your radius. Now we plug it in.

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = (√34)²

Your final answer is:

(x - 2)² + (y - 4)² = 34

The number of tropical fish that an aquarium can hold depends on the volume of the fish tank. the interior dimensions of the fish tank are 25 cm, 30 cm, and 39 cm. each fish requires 10,000 cubic centimeters of water. how many tropical fish will this fish tank hold?

Answers

So first, you need to find the volume of the tank. 25*30*39=29250 cubic cm. If each fish requires 10,000 cubic centimeters of water, you will need to divide 29,250 by 10,000. That would equal 2.925. So, even though it rounds up to 3, the 3rd fish would not have enough space. That leaves us to say that the tank can only hold 2 fish.

What is the surface area of a square pyramid with a height of 12 mm and a base that measures 10 mm on each side? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

The surface area is given by:
 AS = Ab + Al
 Where,
 Ab: base area
 Al: lateral area
 We have then:
 The area of the base is:
 Ab = (10) * (10) = 100 mm ^ 2
 The lateral area is:
 Al = (4) * (1/2) * (10) * (root ((12) ^ 2 + (5) ^ 2))
 Al = 260 mm ^ 2
 The surface area is:
 AS = 100 + 260
 AS = 360 mm ^ 2
 Answer:
 
The surface area of a square pyramid is:
 
AS = 360 mm ^ 2

The surface area of the square pyramid is [tex]\(360 \, \text{mm}^2\)[/tex]

To calculate the surface area of a square pyramid, we need to find the area of its base and the area of its four triangular faces. Given the following:

The base side length [tex](\(s\))[/tex] is [tex]10\ mm[/tex].

The height of the pyramid [tex](\(h\))[/tex] is [tex]12 \ mm[/tex]

Step-by-Step Calculation:

1. Area of the base:

The base is a square with side length [tex]\(s = 10\) mm.[/tex]

[tex]\[\text{Area of the base} = s^2 = 10^2 = 100 \, \text{mm}^2\][/tex]

2. Slant height of the pyramid:

To find the slant height [tex](\(l\))[/tex], we need to use the Pythagorean theorem. The slant height is the hypotenuse of a right triangle where one leg is half the side length of the base [tex](\(\frac{s}{2} = \frac{10}{2} = 5\) mm)[/tex] and the other leg is the height of the pyramid [tex](\(h = 12\) mm)[/tex].

[tex]\[l = \sqrt{\left(\frac{s}{2}\right)^2 + h^2} = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} = \sqrt{25 + 144} = \sqrt{169} = 13 \, \text{mm}\][/tex]

3 Area of the four triangular faces:

Each triangular face has a base of [tex]10\ mm[/tex] and a slant height of [tex]13 \ mm[/tex].

[tex]\[\text{Area of one triangular face} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{slant height} = \frac{1}{2} \times 10 \times 13 = 65 \, \text{mm}^2\][/tex]

Since there are four triangular faces:

[tex]\[\text{Total area of the four triangular faces} = 4 \times 65 = 260 \, \text{mm}^2\][/tex]

4. Total surface area:

The total surface area of the square pyramid is the sum of the area of the base and the area of the four triangular faces:

[tex]\[\text{Total surface area} = \text{Area of the base} + \text{Total area of the four triangular faces} = 100 + 260 = 360 \, \text{mm}^2\][/tex]

If Michael and imani add an 18% tip to the bill,what does their lunch cost in total

Answers

take the original cost and multiply 0.18 to it. then take the product of that and add it to the original number to get the total cost.

Answer:

X + (0.18 * X)

where X is the price of the bill without the tip

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you have to do is convert the percentage to a decimal value. For example, if it is 30%, its decimal value is 0.30. As simple as dividing that 300 by 100. Repeat the previous step with all the percentages you have to add.

In this case it is 18% therefore the decimal value will be 0.18. As we do not have the value of the account, we will call this value X .

Therefore the total price of the account, that is, with the addition of the tip is as follows:

X + 18% de X =

X + (0.18 + X)

Professor Scott has 84 students in his college mathematics lecture class. The scores on the midterm exam are normally distributed with a mean of 72.3 and a standard deviation of 8.9. How many students in the class can be expected to receive a score between 63.4 and 81.2? Express the answer to the nearest student.

Answers

Answer: 57

=====================================================

Explanation:

Convert each raw score to a z score
If x = 63.4, then
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (63.4-72.3)/8.9
z = -1

if x = 81.2, then 
z = (x-mu)/sigma
z = (81.2-72.3)/8.9
z = 1

So P(63.4 < x < 81.2) is the same as P(-1 < z < 1)

Through the empirical rule (aka the 68-95-99.7 rule), we know that roughly 68% of the data values are within one standard deviation of the mean. In other words
P(-1 < z < 1) = 0.68 approximately (see note below)

Multiply 0.68 by the total 84 to get
0.68*84 = 57.12
which rounds to 57 people

Note: we can use a calculator to get a more accurate result of 0.68268949; a data table works as well but it won't be as accurate. For the purposes of this problem, the value 0.68 is good enough
