Two people agree to meet for a drink after work but they are impatient and each will wait only 15 minutes for the other person to show up. Suppose that they each arrive at independent random times uniformly distributed between 5 p.m. and 6 p.m. What is the probability they will meet?

Answer:

D.  (3, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertex for ( x - a)^2 + b  is (a, b).

Comparing (x - 3)^2 - 1 with this we get:

a = 3 and b = -1.

Answer: Last Option

(3, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following quadratic function:

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

By definition for a quadratic function in the form:

[tex]f (x) = a (x-h) ^ 2 + k[/tex]

the vertex of the function is always the point (h, k)

Note that for this case the values of h, a, and k are:

[tex]a = 1\\h = 3\\k = -1[/tex]

Therefore the vertex of the function [tex]f(x) =(x-3)^2 - 1[/tex] is the point

(3, -1)

Answer:

The slope is -6 and the y intercept is -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets put the  equation in slope intercept form (y=mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

-6x-y =1

Add y to each side

-6x-y+y = 1+y

-6x = 1+y

Subtract 1 from each side

-6x-1 = y+1-1

-6x-1 =y

y = -6x-1

The slope is -6 and the y intercept is -1

Answer:

The Range Rule of Thumb says that the range is about four times the standard deviation. So, if you need to calculate it, you need to divide range (Maximum - Minimum) with 4, S=[tex]\frac{R}{4}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

R=1490 - 904

S = 586 / 4 = 149.5

If you compare the exact standard desviation (149.5 cm) with the estimated (146.5 cm), it is a difference of 3 cm, is not neccesary round the result.

Hope my answer has been useful.

Answer:

x_bar = 1197 cm^3 , s.d_e = 146.5 cm^3

Outside the 15 cm^3 tolerance. Not a good estimation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- Lowest value of brain volume L = 904 cm^3

- Highest value of brain volume H = 1490 cm^3

- Exact standard deviation s.d_a = 174.7 cm^3

Find:

Use the range rule of thumb to estimate the standard deviation s and compare the result to the exact standard deviation of 174.7 cm^3 assuming the estimate is accurate if it is within 15 cm^3.

Solution:

- The rule of thumb states that the max and min limits are +/- 2 standard deviations about the mean x_bar. Hence, we will set up two equations.

                           L = x_bar - 2*s.d_e

                           H = x_bar + 2*s.d_e

Where, s.d_e is the estimated standard deviation.

- Solve the two equations simultaneously and you get the following:

                          x_bar = 1197 cm^3 , s.d_e = 146.5 cm^3

- The exact standard deviation is s.d_a = 174.7 cm^3

So, the estimates differs by:

                           s.d_a - s.d_e = 174.7 - 146.5 = 28.2 cm^3

Hence, its outside the tolerance of 15 cm^3. Not a good approximation.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that [tex]r = 0.952[/tex]

We have coefficient of determination

[tex]r^2 =0.952^2\\=0.906304[/tex]

=90.63%

This implies that nearly 91% of variation in change in dependent variable is due to the change in x.

The coefficient of determination is the square of the correlation (r) between predicted y scores and actual y scores; thus, it ranges from 0 to 1.

An R2 of 0 means that the dependent variable cannot be predicted from the independent variable.

An R2 of 1 means the dependent variable can be predicted without error from the independent variable.

Therefore [tex]2!\cdot 4!\cdot 6!\cdot 8!.......2k!2\left ( k+1\right )! must be greater than \left ( k+1\right )^{k+1}[/tex]

Hence it is true for n=k+1

Hence it is true for n=k

Answer: Dividend paid = $750,000

Explanation:

In order to compute the dividends paid by the firm in 2014 , we'll use the following formula :

Retained earning at end = Retained earning at beginning +Net income -Dividend paid

$5,200,000 = $4,900,000 +  $1,050,000 - Dividend paid

Dividend paid = $4,900,000 +  $1,050,000 - $5,200,000

Dividend paid = $750,000

Answer:

$15400

Step-by-step explanation:

Principle amount, P = $14000

Time, T = 1 year

Rate of interest, R = 10%

We know that maturity amount,

[tex]A = P\left (1+\frac{R}{100} \right )^{n}[/tex]

where n is number of years

[tex]A = P\left (1+\frac{R}{100} \right )^{n}[/tex]

[tex]A = 14000\left (1+\frac{10}{100}\right )^{1}[/tex]

[tex]A = 14000\left (1+\frac{1}{10}\right )[/tex]

[tex]A = 14000\left (\frac{11}{10}\right )[/tex]

[tex]A = 15400[/tex]

The maturity amount is $15400

Kayla should take out a loan of $12,727.27 to have $14,000 after accounting for a 10% discount rate over one year.

Kayla needs to determine the amount she must borrow so that after accounting for the interest rate of 10%, she will have proceeds of $14,000 to invest in new equipment for her shop. The equation to calculate this is the present value (amount borrowed) equals the future value (amount after interest) divided by one plus the interest rate to the power of the period, which in this case is one year.

Using this formula:

Amount Borrowed = $14,000 / (1 + 0.10)1

Amount Borrowed = $14,000 / 1.10

Amount Borrowed = $12,727.27

Therefore, Kayla should ask for a loan of $12,727.27 to receive $14,000 after one year.

a. This recurrence is of order 2.

b. We're looking for a function [tex]A(x)[/tex] such that

[tex]A(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n[/tex]

Take the recurrence,

[tex]\begin{cases}a_0=a_0\\a_1=a_1\\a_n-5a_{n-1}+6a_{n-2}=0&\text{for }n\ge2\end{cases}[/tex]

Multiply both sides by [tex]x^{n-2}[/tex] and sum over all integers [tex]n\ge2[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_nx^{n-2}-5\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-1}x^{n-2}+6\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-2}x^{n-2}=0[/tex]

Pull out powers of [tex]x[/tex] so that each summand takes the form [tex]a_kx^k[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac1{x^2}\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_nx^n-\frac5x\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+6\sum_{n=2}^\infty a_{n-2}x^{n-2}=0[/tex]

Now shift the indices and add/subtract terms as needed to get everything in terms of [tex]A(x)[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle\frac1{x^2}\left(\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n-a_0-a_1x\right)-\frac5x\left(\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n-a_0\right)+6\sum_{n=0}^\infty a_nx^n=0[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle\frac{A(x)-a_0-a_1x}{x^2}-\frac{5(A(x)-a_0)}x+6A(x)=0[/tex]

Solve for [tex]A(x)[/tex]:

[tex]A(x)=\dfrac{a_0+(a_1-5a_0)x}{1-5x+6x^2}\implies\boxed{A(x)=\dfrac{a_0+(a_1-5a_0)x}{(1-3x)(1-2x)}}[/tex]

c. Splitting [tex]A(x)[/tex] into partial fractions gives

[tex]A(x)=\dfrac{2a_0-a_1}{1-3x}+\dfrac{3a_0-a_1}{1-2x}[/tex]

Recall that for [tex]|x|<1[/tex], we have

[tex]\displaystyle\frac1{1-x}=\sum_{n=0}^\infty x^n[/tex]

so that for [tex]|3x|<1[/tex] and [tex]|2x|<1[/tex], or simply [tex]|x|<\dfrac13[/tex], we have

[tex]A(x)=\displaystyle\sum_{n=0}^\infty\bigg((2a_0-a_1)3^n+(3a_0-a_1)2^n\bigg)x^n[/tex]

which means the solution to the recurrence is

[tex]\boxed{a_n=(2a_0-a_1)3^n+(3a_0-a_1)2^n}[/tex]

d. I guess you mean [tex]a_0=2[/tex] and [tex]a_1=5[/tex], in which case

[tex]\boxed{\begin{cases}a_0=2\\a_1=5\\a_2=13\\a_3=35\\a_4=97\\a_5=275\end{cases}}[/tex]

e. We already know the general solution in terms of [tex]a_0[/tex] and [tex]a_1[/tex], so just plug them in:

[tex]\boxed{a_n=2^n+3^n}[/tex]

  (c) inflection point: DNE; concave up: (-∞, ∞); concave down: DNE

Step-by-step explanation:

The first derivative of f(x) = e^(8x) +e^(-x) is ...

  f'(x) = 8e^(8x) -e^(-x)

This is zero at the function minimum, where ...

  8e^(8x) -e^(-x) = 0

  8e^(9x) -1 = 0 . . . . . . multiply by e^x

  e^(9x) = 1/8 . . . . . . .  add 1, divide by 8

  9x = ln(2^-3) . . . . . . take the natural log

  x.min = (-3/9)ln(2) = -ln(2)/3 . . . divide by the coefficient of x, simplify

This value of x is the location of the minimum.

__

The function value there is ...

  f(-ln(2)/3) = e^(8(-ln(2)/3)) + e^(-(-ln(2)/3))

  = 2^(-8/3) +2^(1/3) = 2^(1/3)(2^-3 +1)

  f(x.min) = (9/8)2^(1/3) . . . . . minimum value of the function

__

A graph shows the first derivative to have positive slope everywhere, so the curve is always concave upward. There is no point of inflection. The minimum point found above is the place where the function transitions from decreasing to increasing.

To find the intervals on which f(x) = [tex]e^8^x + e^(^-^x^)[/tex] is increasing and decreasing, analyze the first derivative. The function is increasing on (-1/8, ∞) and decreasing on (-∞, -1/8). The local minimum is at x = -1/8, and the function is concave up on (-∞, -1/8) and concave up on (-1/8, ∞).

To find the intervals on which the function f(x) = [tex]e^8^x + e^(^-^x^)[/tex] is increasing and decreasing, we need to analyze the first derivative of the function. The first derivative is f'(x) = [tex]8e^8^x - e^(^-^x^)[/tex]. We set this derivative equal to zero and solve for x to find the critical points. There is one critical point at x = -1/8. We can test intervals to the left and right of this critical point to determine the behavior of the function. The function is decreasing on (-∞, -1/8) and increasing on (-1/8, ∞). Therefore, the function is increasing on the interval (-1/8, ∞) and decreasing on the interval (-∞, -1/8).

To find the local minimum and maximum values of f, we analyze the second derivative of the function. The second derivative is f''(x) =[tex]64e^8^x + e^(^-^x^)[/tex]. We evaluate this second derivative at the critical point x = -1/8. The second derivative at x = -1/8 is positive, so the function has a local minimum at x = -1/8.

The inflection point of the function can be found by analyzing the points where the concavity changes. The second derivative changes sign at x = -1/8. Therefore, the inflection point of the function is (-1/8, f(-1/8)). To find the intervals on which the function is concave up and concave down, we analyze the sign of the second derivative. The second derivative is positive on (-∞, -1/8) and positive on (-1/8, ∞), meaning the function is concave up on (-∞, -1/8) and concave up on (-1/8, ∞).

Answer:

A∩(A∪B)=A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer as follows:

Let's consider that 'A' includes all numbers between X1 and X2 (X1≤A≥X2), and let's consider that 'B' includes all numbers between Y1 and Y2 (Y1≤B≥Y2). Now:

A∪B includes all numbers between X1 and X2, as well as the numbers between Y1 and Y2, so:

A∪B= (X1≤A≥X2)∪(Y1≤B≥Y2)

Now, A∩C involves only the numbers that are included in both, A and C. This means that 'x' belongs to A∩C only if 'x' is included in 'A' and also in 'C'.

With this in mind, A∩(A∪B) includes all numbers that belong to 'A' and 'A∪B', which in other words means, all numbers that belong to (X1≤A≥X2) and also (X1≤A≥X2)∪(Y1≤B≥Y2), which are:

A∩(A∪B)=(X1≤A≥X2) which gives:

Answer:

$500 000

Step-by-step explanation:

 Let r = revenue

and c = costs

and n = number of units. Then

r = 50n and

c = 40n + 100 000

At the break-even point,

r = c

50n = 40n + 100 000

10n = 100 000

    n = 10 000

The break-even point is reached at 10 000 units. At that point,

r = 50n =50 × 10 000 = 500 000

A sales revenue of $500 000 is needed to break even.

Belle Corp. needs to achieve a sales revenue of $500,000 to cover both its variable and fixed costs and thus reach the break-even point.

To calculate the breakeven point of Belle Corp., we need to understand that breakeven is the point where total costs (fixed and variable) equal total sales revenue. The formula for calculating the breakeven point in units is Total Fixed Costs / Contribution Margin per Unit. The contribution margin per unit is the Selling Price per Unit minus the Variable Cost per Unit.

For Belle Corp.,

To calculate sales revenue necessary to breakeven, we multiply the breakeven point in units by the selling price per unit. Therefore, Sales revenue needed to break-even = Breakeven units * Selling Price per unit = 10,000 units × $50 = $500,000.

Answer:

99.85%

Step-by-step explanation:

Most of today's student calculators have probability distribution functions built in.  Here we are to find the area under the standard normal curve between 58 mph and 76 mph, if the mean speed is 67 mph and the std. dev. is 3 mph.

Here's what I'd type into my calculator:

normalcdf(58, 76, 67, 3)

The result obtained in this manner was 0.9985.  

This states that 99.85% of the vehicles clocked were traveling at speeds between 58 mph and 76 mph.

Answer: 99.9%

Step-by-step explanation:In a normal distribution (bell-shaped distribution), the percent that is between the mean and the standard deviations are:

between the mean and mean + standard deviation the percentage is = 34.1%

between the mean + standard deviation and mean + 2 times the standard deviation is = 13.6%

between the mean + 2 times the standard deviation and the mean + 3 times the standard deviation is: 2.14%

And is the same if we subtract the standard deviation.

So in the range from 58 to 67, we can find 3 standard deviations, and in the range from 67 to 76, we also can find 3 standard deviations:

58 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 67

67 + 3 + 3 + 3 = 76

So the total probability is equal to the addition of all those ranges:

2.14% + 13.6% + 34.1% + 34.1% + 13.6% + 2.14% = 99.9%

So 99.9% of the cars have velocities in the range between 58 miles per hour and 76 miles per hour

To calculate the work done to lift the leaking water, consider the average weight of the water over each part of the journey and calculate force x distance. After doing this, it is found that the total work done is 160 ft-lb.

This problem is a example of work done against gravity. Gravity pulls the water downward, whereas the rope lifts it upward. Remember the formula for work is Work = force x distance. In this case, the force is the weight of the water being lifted (decreasing as the water leaks out) and the distance is the height the bucket is raised.

Let's start by assuming that the rate of the water leaking out is linear. This means that if the bucket is lifted halfway up the rope when it's half empty, then its average weight over the first 10 feet is 0.75 * 16 lb (12 lb), and its average weight over the next 10 feet is 0.25 * 16 lb (4 lb).

So the work done is calculated as follows:

Therefore, the total work done in lifting the water alone is Work1 + Work2 = 160 ft-lb.

https://brainly.com/question/31538865

#SPJ12

To solve this problem, you can use calculus to determine the work done lifting the water as it leaks out of the bucket. To find the amount of work done to lift the water to the top, you'll need to integrate the varying weight of the water over the distance it's lifted. Since the water leaks out at a constant rate, it will linearly decrease in weight from 16 pounds to 0 pounds over the course of the 20-foot ascent.
You're given that the bucket starts with 16 pounds of water, which is equal to 2 gallons. That's because 1 gallon of water weighs approximately 8 pounds. The water weight decreases to 0 pounds as the height reaches 20 feet.
The weight of the water as a function of height, \( w(x) \), can be modeled as a linear function that starts from 16 lb at the ground (when \( x = 0 \)) and goes to 0 lb at 20 ft (when \( x = 20 \)). Thus, the weight function is:
\[ w(x) = 16 - \frac{16}{20}x \]
This simplifies to:
\[ w(x) = 16 - 0.8x \]
The work done lifting the water from height \( x \) to \( x + dx \) is \( w(x) \cdot dx \).
Work, \( W \), is the integral of this force over the distance it's applied:
\[ W = \int_{0}^{20} w(x) \, dx \]
Substitute \( w(x) \) into the equation:
\[ W = \int_{0}^{20} (16 - 0.8x) \, dx \]
Evaluating this integral involves finding the antiderivative:
\[ W = \left[ 16x - 0.4x^2 \right]_{0}^{20} \]
Apply the bounds of the integration (from 0 to 20):
\[ W = \left( 16(20) - 0.4(20)^2 \right) - \left( 16(0) - 0.4(0)^2 \right) \]
\[ W = (320 - 0.4(400)) - (0 - 0) \]
\[ W = 320 - 160 \]
Therefore, the total work done lifting the water alone is:
\[ W = 160 \text{ foot-pounds} \]

Answer: [tex]R^{2}[/tex] = 0.89

Step-by-step explanation:

Coefficient of determination is represented by [tex]R^{2}[/tex]. This tells us that how much of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by the independent variable.

It is the ratio of explained variation by the independent variables to the total variation in the dependent variable.

Hence,

Coefficient of determination = [tex]\frac{Explained\ Variation}{Total\ Variation}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{18.592}{20.711}[/tex]

[tex]R^{2}[/tex]= 0.89

∴ 89% of the variation in the dependent variable is explained by the independent variables.

The coefficient of determination is calculated by dividing the explained variation by the total variation. For the student's data, the coefficient of determination is approximately 0.8978, which translates to about 89.78% of the variation in the dependent variable being explained by the regression line.

The student is asking about the coefficient of determination, which is a statistical measure in a regression analysis. To find the coefficient of determination, we use the explained variation and the total variation from the regression equation. It is calculated by dividing the explained variation by the total variation and then squaring the result if needed to find r squared.

In this case, the explained variation is 18.592 and the total variation is 20.711. The formula to find the coefficient of determination (r²) is:

r² = Explained Variation / Total Variation

Plugging in the values we have:

r² = 18.592 / 20.711

r² ≈ 0.8978

Expressed as a percentage, the coefficient of determination is approximately 89.78%, which means that about 89.78% of the variation in the dependent variable can be explained by the independent variable using the regression line.

Answer:

[tex]H_0:\mu =873\\\\H_a: \mu<873[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a study investigating a link between walking and improved​ health, researchers reported that adults walked an average of 873 minutes in the past month for the purpose of health or recreation.

Claim : The true average number of minutes in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 873 minutes.

i.e. [tex]\mu<873[/tex]

We know that the null hypothesis contains equal sign , then the set of hypothesis for the given situation will be :-

[tex]H_0:\mu =873\\\\H_a: \mu<873[/tex]

The null hypothesis assumes no difference, so it reflects an average walking time of 873 minutes (H0: μ = 873). The alternative hypothesis reflects the research query, suggesting the true average is less than 873 minutes (Ha: μ < 873).

In statistics, the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis are often used to test claims or assumptions about a population. In this case, the research is about whether the true average number of minutes in the past month that adults walked for the purpose of health or recreation is lower than 873 minutes.

The null hypothesis (H0) is often a statement of 'no effect' or 'no difference'. Here, it would be: H0: μ = 873. This means that the population mean (μ) of walking time is equal to 873 minutes.

The alternative hypothesis (Ha) is what you might believe to be true or hope to prove true. In this study, it would be: Ha: μ < 873. This means that the population mean of walking time is less than 873 minutes.

Answer:

The correct answer is last option

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see two right angled triangle.

Points to remember

If two right angled triangles are congruent then their hypotenuse and one leg are congruent

To find the correct options

From the figure we get all the angles of 2 triangles are congruent.

one angle is right angle. But there is no information about the hypotenuse and legs.

So the correct answer is last option

There is not enough information to determine congruency.

Answer:

  a) 297°

  b) 4.52 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Consider the attached figure. The boat's actual path will be the sum of its heading vector BA and that of the current, vector AC. The angle of BA north of west has a sine equal to 5/11. That is, the heading direction measured clockwise from north is ...

  270° + arcsin(5/11) = 297°

__

b) The "speed made good" is the boat's speed multiplied by the cosine of the angle between the boat's heading and the boat's actual path. That same value can be computed as the remaining leg of the right triangle with hypotenuse 11 and leg 5.

  boat speed = √(11² -5²) = √96 ≈ 9.7980 . . . . miles per hour

Then the travel time will be ...

  time = distance/speed

  (3900 ft)×(1 mi)/(5280 ft)×(60 min)/(1 h)/(9.7980 mi/h) ≈ 4.523 min

Answer:

2.5 ml for a dosage of 20 mg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Ratio problems.

Since this is basically a ratio problem we can use the simple Rule of Three property to solve this problem. The Rule of Three property can be seen in the photo below. Now we just plug in the values and solve for x.

 8 mg.   ⇒   1 ml.

20 mg.   ⇒   x

[tex]\frac{20mg*1ml}{8mg} = 2.5ml[/tex]

Now we can see that we should administer a 2.5 ml for a dosage of 20 mg.

The probability that Little Joe, who has no brothers, is an only child is calculated using conditional probability and results in a 1/4 chance.

The question asks us to find the probability that Little Joe, who has no brothers, is an only child. The sample space for the number of children in a family can be defined as {1, 2, 3, 4}, since each of these outcomes has an equal probability of 1/4. We will define event A as Little Joe being an only child, and event B as the family having no additional male children. Since Little Joe is a boy and has no brothers, cases with more than one male child should not be a part of our conditional sample space.

To solve this, we are looking at the conditional probability P(A|B). The probability that Little Joe is an only child given he has no brothers is P(A|B) = P(A and B) / P(B). We can determine that P(A and B) is simply the probability that there is one child and that child is a boy (Little Joe), which is 1/4. Event B can happen in three scenarios: Little Joe is an only child, Little Joe has one sister, or Little Joe has two or three sisters, and each scenario has an equal probability. Therefore, P(B) = 1/4 (only child) + 1/4 (one sister) + 1/4 (two sisters) + 1/4 (three sisters), which adds to 1/4 * 4 = 1.

The answer therefore is P(A|B) = (1/4) / 1 = 1/4. There is a 1/4 chance that Little Joe, who has no brothers, is an only child.

Answer:

y=2/5x+3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope formula to get the slope:

m=4/10

m=2/5

The y intercept is 3/5

The equation is y=2/5x+3/5

Answer:

y = (2/5)x + 3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Points to remember

Equation of the line passing through the poits (x1, y1) and (x2, y2)  and slope m is given by

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = m    where slope m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

To find the slope of line

Here (x1, y1) =  (-4, -1) and  (x2, y2) = (6, 3)

Slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

 = (3 - -1)/(6 - -4)

 = 4/10 = 2/5

To find the equation

(y - y1)/(x - x1) = m  

(y - -1)/(x - -4) = 2/5

(y + 1)/(x + 4) = 2/5

5(y + 1) = 2(x + 4)

5y + 5 = 2x + 8

5y = 2x + 3

y = (2/5)x + 3/5

Answer:  The lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

Step-by-step explanation:  We are given to determine whether the following lines L1 and L2 passing through the pair of points are parallel, perpendicular or neither :

L1 : (–5, –5), (4, 6),

L2 : (–9, 8), (–18, –3).

We know that a pair of lines are

(i) PARALLEL if the slopes of both the lines are equal.

(II) PERPENDICULAR if the product of the slopes of the lines is -1.

The SLOPE of a straight line passing through the points (a, b) and (c, d) is given by

[tex]m=\dfrac{d-b}{c-a}.[/tex]

So, the slope of line L1 is

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{6-(-5)}{4-(-5)}=\dfrac{6+5}{4+5}=\dfrac{11}{9}[/tex]

and

the slope of line L2 is

[tex]m_2=\dfrac{-3-8}{-18-(-9)}=\dfrac{-11}{-9}=\dfrac{11}{9}.[/tex]

Therefore, we get

[tex]m_1=m_2\\\\\Rightarrow \textup{Slope of line L1}=\textup{Slope of line L2}.[/tex]

Hence, the lines L1 and L2 are parallel.

Answer:

0.0726mL

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer by using the following formula:

(subcutaneous dose)=(milliliters of the injection)*(drug concentration)/(child weight)

Using the given data we have:

(0.01mg/kg)=(milliliters of the injection)*(1mg/mL)/(16lbs)

milliliters of the injection=(0.01mg/kg)*(16lbs)/(1mg/mL)

Notice that the data has different units so:

1kg=2.20462lbs then:

16lbs*(1kg/2.20462lbs)=7.25748kg

Using the above relation we have:

milliliters of the injection=(0.01mg/kg)*(7.25748kg)/(1mg/mL)

milliliters of the injection=0.0726mL

The numbers on a six sided die are: 1, 2, 3, 4 ,5 ,6

There are 4 numbers that are either equal to 3 or greater than 3: 3, 4, 5 ,6

The probability of getting one is 4 chances out of 6 numbers, which is written as 4/6.

4/6 can be reduced to 2/3 ( simplified fraction)

Final answer:

The probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 3 on a six-sided die is 2/3 or 0.6667 when rounded to four decimal places.

Explanation:

To find the probability of rolling a number greater than or equal to 3 on a standard six-sided die, we count the favorable outcomes and then divide this number by the total number of possible outcomes. The sample space, S, of a six-sided die is {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}.

Numbers greater than or equal to 3 are 3, 4, 5, and 6. So, there are 4 favorable outcomes. The total number of possible outcomes is 6 (since there are 6 sides on the die).

The probability is thus the number of favorable outcomes (4) divided by the total number of possible outcomes (6), which simplifies to 2/3 or approximately 0.6667 when rounded to four decimal places.

Answer: Option (4) is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

B = {John, Paul, George, Ringo, Pete, Stuart}

Now, we have select the Set that is equal to the Set B.

From all the options given in the question, option (4) is correct.

It contains all the elements of Set B but only the arrangement or sequence of the Set is different.

Correct Set 4 = {Paul, Ringo, Pete, John, George, Stuart} = Set B

The set matching B = {John, Paul, George, Ringo, Pete, Stuart} from the options provided is {Paul, Ringo, Pete, John, George, Stuart}, as it contains all the same members regardless of order and no other elements.

The question asks to select all answers that are equal to the set B = {John, Paul, George, Ringo, Pete, Stuart}. A set, in this context, is defined as a collection of distinct objects, considered as an object in its own right. In a set, the order of elements does not matter, but duplication of elements is not allowed. From the provided options, the only answer that matches set B exactly is {Paul, Ringo, Pete, John, George, Stuart}, since it contains all the same elements as set B, regardless of order, and does not include any additional elements.
