Steve has 8 biscuits in a tin. There are 5 digestive and 3 chocolate biscuits. Steve takes two biscuits at random from the tin. Work out the probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits.

Answers

Answer 1

Probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits is 53.65 %.

What is probability?

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event to occur. Many events cannot be predicted with total certainty. We can predict only the chance of an event to occur i.e. how likely they are to happen, using it.

Given

Total biscuits, n = 8

Digestive biscuits = 5

Chocolate biscuits = 3

There are two patterns to chose two different biscuits; a digestive then a chocolate or a chocolate and then a digestive.

∴ The probability of choosing a digestive then a chocolate

= [tex]\frac{5}{8}\times\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{15}{56}[/tex]

= 0.267

The probability of choosing chocolate and then a digestive.

= [tex]\frac{3}{8} \times\frac{5}{7}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{15}{56}[/tex]

= 0.267

Hence, The combined probability

= [tex]\frac{15}{56}+ \frac{15}{56}[/tex]

= [tex]0.536[/tex]

= 53.6 5 %

Probability that he chooses two different types of biscuits is 53.65 %.

Answer:

Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

Vertex is (2, -1)

y-intercept is (0, 3)

Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw the graph of the quadratic equation you must find at least 5 points lie on the graph by choose values of x and find their values of y

Let us do that

Use x = -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

∵ y = x² - 4x + 3

∵ x = -1

∴ y = (-1)² - 4(-1) + 3 = 1 + 4 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (-1, 8)

∵ x = 0

∴ y = (0)² - 4(0) + 3 = 0 + 0 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (0, 3)

∵ x = 1

∴ y = (1)² - 4(1) + 3 = 1 - 4 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (1, 0)

∵ x = 2

∴ y = (2)² - 4(2) + 3 = 4 - 8 + 3 = -1

→ Plot point (2, -1)

∵ x = 3

∴ y = (3)² - 4(3) + 3 = 9 - 12 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (3, 0)

∵ x = 4

∴ y = (4)² - 4(4) + 3 = 16 - 16 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (4, 3)

∵ x = 5

∴ y = (5)² - 4(5) + 3 = 25 - 20 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (5, 8)

→ Join all the points to form the parabola

From the graph

∵ The axis of symmetry is the vertical line passes through the vertex point

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex point is 2

Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

∵ The coordinates of the vertex point of the parabola are (2, -1)

Vertex is (2, -1)

∵ The parabola intersects the y-axis at point (0, 3)

y-intercept is (0, 3)

∵ x² - 4x + 3 = 0

∵ The solutions of the equation are the values of x at y = 0

→ That means the intersection points of the parabola and the x-axis

∵ The parabola intersects the x-axis at points (1, 0) and (3, 0)

Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

Bruno‘s mother is eight more than twice his age. His father is three years older than his mother is. If all three members have lived a total of 94 years, how old is each family member?

Answers

Answer:

Bruno = 15 years

Mother = 8 + 2(15) = 38 years

Father = 38 + 3 = 41 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Let

Bruno's age = x

Mothers age = 8 + 2x

Father's age = 8 + 2x + 3 = 2x + 11

x + 8 + 2x + 2x + 11 = 94

5x + 19 = 94

5x = 75

x = 75 /5

x = 15

Bruno = 15 years

Mother = 8 + 2(15) = 38 years

Father = 38 + 3 = 41 years

Rosa Went to have a manicure that cost $25 she wanted to tip the technician and 15% and tax is 7% how much did she spend total for the manicure

Answers

The correct answer is $30.5 or $31 if rounded

Explanation:

To find the total Rosa spent on the manicure, it is necessary to calculate the money spent on taxes and the money she tipped to the technician. The process is shown below:

Taxes:

$25 represents 100% of the cost and 7% percent represents the total taxes.

1. Write the values using x as the value you want to know

25 = 100

x   = 7

2. Use cross multiplication

x 100 =  175

3. Solve this equation

x = 175 / 100

x = 1.75 (Total price for taxes)

Tip:

Repeat the process but in this case calculate the 15% of $25

25 = 100

x =  15

x 100 = 375

x = 375 / 100

x = 3.75

Total: Finally, add the three values

$25 (cost of the manicure) + $ 1.75 (taxes) + $3.75 (tip) = $30.5 or $31 if rounded

The vertices of a triangle are A (-2, 2), B (4,10), and C (0, -2). Find the equation of the line that contains
the median through point


The equation of the line is y =________

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/2 x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

mid point of line BC = (2, 4)

slope of the line containing median (m) = 1/2

y intercept (b)= 3

since y = mx + b

y = 1/2x + 3

The median of a triangle is the line segment joining the any of the vertex to the mid-point of the opposite side of that vertex. The equation of the median through point A is given by y = 1/2x + 3.

What is a Median ?

A median of a triangle is a line segment joining one of the vertex of the triangle to the mid-point of the opposite side.

The median of an equilateral triangle also an angular bisector.

Given that,

The coordinates of A = (-2, 2)

The coordinates of B = (4, 10)

The coordinates of C = (0,-2)

Thus the coordinate mid-point of BC is given by (4+0)/2,(10-2)/2 = (2,4).

Now, to find the equation of median through A there are two points (-2,2) and (2,4).

Thus the equation of median an be written as,

(y-2)/(x+2) = (4-2)/(2-(-2))

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

=> y = 1/2(x+2) + 2

=> y = 1/2 x + 3

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 1/2 x + 3.

Graph the equation y = x2 + 6x + 5 on the accompanying set of axes. You must

Answers

Answer:

Please check the graph below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function

[tex]y\:=\:x^2\:+\:6x\:+\:5[/tex]

Axis interception points of the function

x-axis interception points can be computed by setting y=0

[tex]x^2+6x+5=0[/tex]

[tex]\left(x+1\right)\left(x+5\right)=0[/tex]

Using the zero factor principle

if  [tex]\:ab=0\:\mathrm{then}\:a=0\:\mathrm{or}\:b=0\:\left(\mathrm{or\:both}\:a=0\:\mathrm{and}\:b=0\right)[/tex]

[tex]x+1=0\quad \mathrm{or}\quad \:x+5=0[/tex]

[tex]x=-1,\:x=-5[/tex]

Hence,

x-axis interception points are: (-1, 0), (-5, 0)

y-axis interception points can be computed by setting x=0

[tex]x^2+6x+5=0[/tex]

[tex]y\:=\:\left(0\right)^2\:+\:6\left(0\right)\:+\:5[/tex]

[tex]y=0+0+5[/tex]

[tex]y=5[/tex]

Hence,

y-axis interception points are: (0, 5)

From the graph, it is clear that at (-3, -4) the parabola changes direction, hence (-3, -4) it the "vertex".

Also at the point x=-2, then y is = -3

So, all the points are labeled and the graph is attached below.
