A Mathematics paper consists of 12 questions of which not more than ten are to be answered. Given that the number of candidates who answer ten questions is equal to the number of candidates who answer nine questions only. Find the probability that a candidate chosen at random from among these two sets of candidates will have selected questions 1, 2 and 3 if all the questions have the same chance of being selected.​

Answers

Answer 1

The probability that a candidate chosen at random from among these two sets of candidates will have selected questions 1, 2 and 3 is 0.4179.

How to calculate probability?

The probability that a candidate chosen at random from among these two sets of candidates will have selected questions 1, 2 and 3 will ba calculated thus:

= [(9C6 /12C9) × 1/2] + [(9C7)/12C10) × 1/2]

= 42/220 + 18/66

= 0.1909 + 0.2727

= 0.4179

In conclusion, the probability is 0.4179.

What is the y intercept of the equation-16x^2+64x+80?

Answers

Answer:

  (0, 80)

Step-by-step explanation:

The y-intercept is the value of the function when x=0. For a polynomial in x, setting x=0 effectively eliminates all of the variable terms, leaving only the constant term.

__

The y-intercept is the constant: 80. The coordinates of the y-intercept point reflect the fact that x=0 there: (0, 80).

Pamela made a profit of $3250 after selling stocks for $10500 after 4 years. What was her average annual percentage gain?

Answers

Pamela's average annual percentage gain was = 7.7%

Calculation of annual percentage gain

The start up capital (P) = $10500

The simple interest (SI) = $3250

Time (T) = 4 years

Rate = ?

But SI = P × T × R /100

Make R the subject of formula,

R = SI × 100/P × T

R = 3250 × 100/ 10500 × 4

R = 325000/ 42000

R = 7.7%

Therefore, Pamela's average annual percentage gain was = 7.7%

a swim team consists of seven boys and four girls a relay team of four swimmers is chosen at random from the team members what is the probability that two boys are selected for the relay team given that the first two selections were girls

Answers

Answer:

16/121

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the chance of a girl being selected for the first pick.

Since there are 4 girls and 7 boys, there are 11 total members on the team. Since 4 of them are girls, there is a [tex]4/11[/tex] chance that a girl is chosen first pick.

Next, to find the chance of the second selection to also be a girl, we have to multiply 4/11 by 4/11 to find that total.

[tex]\frac{4}{11} *\frac{4}{11} =\frac{16}{121}[/tex]

Therefore, the chance of the first two selections being girls is 16/121.

ii)  [tex]x=-\dfrac12, x=\dfrac12[/tex]

iii)   (0, -1)

iv)  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Given quadratic:  [tex]y=4x^2-1[/tex]

Factored form

We can use the Difference of Two Squares to factor the given quadratic.

[tex]a^2-b^2=(a+b)(a-b)[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]a^2=4x^2=(2x)^2\implies a=2x[/tex]

[tex]b^2=1=1^2 \implies b=1[/tex]

So the relation in factored form is:

[tex]y=(2x+1)(2x-1)[/tex]

Zeros

The zeros of the quadratic polynomial are the x-coordinates of the points where the graph intersects the x-axis, i.e. when y = 0

[tex]\implies y=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies (2x+1)(2x-1)=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies (2x+1)=0\implies x=-\dfrac12[/tex]

[tex]\implies (2x-1)=0\implies x=\dfrac12[/tex]

Therefore, the zeros are -1/2 and 1/2

Vertex

The x-coordinate of the vertex is the midpoint of the zeros.

[tex]\textsf{midpoint}=\dfrac{-\frac12+\frac12}{2}=0[/tex]

To find the y-coordinate of the vertex, substitute the found value of x into the given equation:

[tex]\implies y=4(0)^2-1=-1[/tex]

Therefore, the vertex is (0, -1)

A house blueprint has a scale of 1 in. : 6 ft. The length and width of each room in the actual house are shown in the table. Complete the table by finding the length and width of each room on the blueprint.

Answers

Answer:

The dimensions of the rooms in the blueprint will be Living room (), Kitchen (), Office (), Bedroom (), Bedroom (), Bathroom ().

Given information:

A house blueprint has a scale of 1 in : 4 ft.

The length and width of each room in the actual house are shown in the table below:

 Living room  Kitchen  Office  Bedroom  Bedroom     Bathroom

Length  20             16    8              8                      20                6

width 8             16    16              16              20                8

The scale factor is of 1 in: 4 ft. So, 4 ft of actual length is equivalent to 1 inch in the blueprint.

So, the length and width of the different rooms in te house in the blueprint will be,

 Living room  Kitchen  Office  Bedroom  Bedroom       Bathroom

Length(in) 5             4            2              2                      5                        1.5

width(in)   2             4            4              4                      5                          2

Therefore, the dimensions of the rooms in the blueprint will be Living room (), Kitchen (), Office (), Bedroom (), Bedroom (), Bathroom ().
