18. What is the probability that the student plays football?
(a) 35 /66 (b) 20 /33 (c) 13 /33 (d) 3 /22

The value of the expression (a - b)² from the given equations is; 16

We are given the two equations as;

a + b = 10   -----(eq 1)

ab = 21    ------(eq 2)

From eq 1, square both sides;

(a + b)² = 10²

a² + 2ab + b² = 100

a² + b² = 100 - 2ab

We are given ab = 21. Thus;

a² + b² = 100 - 2(21)

a² + b² = 58

Now, we know that (a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

Thus;

(a - b)² = 58 - 2(21)

(a - b)² = 16

Complete question is;

If a + b = 10 and ab = 21, then the value of (a - b)² is?

Step-by-step explanation:

Using it's concept, the probability that the first coin is a nickel and the second coin is a quarter is:

2/39.

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

Hence the probability will be given as follows:

p = 4/13 x 2/12 = 4/13 x 1/6 = 2/13 x 1/3 = 2/39.

The interpretation based on the confidence interval given is that the population mean will fall within the interval.

Number of observations = 10

Sample mean = 2.60

Standard deviation = 1.07

The degree of freedom will be:

= n - 1

= 10 - 1 = 9

Confidence level = 95% = 0.95

Level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05

The value of the t critical from the t table will be 2.262.

The margin of error will be:

= 2.262 × 1.07/✓10

= 0.765

We get the 95% confidence interval for the population mean. This will be:

(2.60 - 0.765( <= U =(2.60 + 0.765)

1.83 <= 3.37

Therefore, the interpretation is that the population mean will fall within the interval.

The missing length of the box with square base is 20.370 inches.

This box can be represented by a right prism, whose volume (V), in cubic inches, is the product of the area of the base (A), in square inches, and the height of the box (h), in inches. The area of the base is equal to the square of the side length (l):

V = l² · h      (1)

If we know that V = 2 200 in³ and l = 108 in, then the height of the box is:

Answer:

0.75, 0.675, 0.475, 0.253, -0.123

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive Numbers will always be greater than negative numbers, so you know -0.123 comes at the end.

Example

0.ABC

The tenth's place (A in the number above) holds the most weight. 0The hundreth's place (B in the number above) holds the second most weight. The thousandth's place (C in the number above) holds the third most weight.

Comparing 0.75 and 0.675 is the same as comparing 75 and 67.5. When in doubt, you can multiply the decimals by 100 to determine their order of value.

It's easy to show that [tex]7\tan(4x)[/tex] is strictly increasing on [tex]x\in\left[0,\frac\pi8\right][/tex]. This means

[tex]M = \max \left\{7\tan(4x) \mid \dfrac\pi{16} \le x \le \dfrac\pi{12}\right\} = 7\tan(4x) \bigg|_{x=\pi/12} = 7\sqrt3[/tex]

and

[tex]m = \min \left\{7\tan(4x) \mid \dfrac\pi{16} \le x \le \dfrac\pi{12}\right\} = 7\tan(4x) \bigg|_{x=\pi/16} = 7[/tex]

Then the integral is bounded by

[tex]\displaystyle 7\left(\frac\pi{12} - \frac\pi{16}\right) \le \int_{\pi/16}^{\pi/12} 7\tan(4x) \, dx \le 7\sqrt3 \left(\frac\pi{12} - \frac\pi{16}\right)[/tex]

Year 3 $11,433.33

Year 4 $8,575.01 ($11,433.34 - $2,858.33)

The straight-line method is one of the depreciation methods in use by companies to allocate the cost of plants and equipment over their useful lives.

Under the straight-line method, the depreciable amount (cost less residual value) is divided by the estimated useful life.

Other depreciation methods include the unit-of-production, double-declining-balance, and the sum-of-the-years-digit methods.

Equipment cost = $36,100

Residual value = $1,800

Depreciable amount = $34,300 ($36,100 - $1,800)

[tex]a_{n} = -3n + 10[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The arithmentic function formula is:

[tex]a_{n} = a_{1} + d(n-1)[/tex]

Let's plug in what we know. [tex]a_{1}[/tex] (the first term in our sequence) is 7. d (the common difference) is -3. This means we are subtracting 3 every time.

Plugging that in to the formula, we get

[tex]a_{n} = 7 -3(n-1)[/tex]

Now we distribute and combine like terms.

[tex]a_{n} = 7 - 3n +3[/tex]

[tex]a_{n} = 10 - 3n[/tex]

Change the order to fit the format and you get

[tex]a_{n} = -3n + 10[/tex]

The amount of the mortgage on this house is given as $300000, while the 1.5 points on the house is given as 3000 dollars

The data from the questions says that the cost of the house = $245000

The down payment amount amount is 45000

Given that they already paid 45000 from the cost of the house, the mortgage would be 245000 - 45000

= $200000

The cost of 1.5 points is the same as the cost of 1.5% of the mortgage of this house.

This is calculated as 0.015 x 200000

The original price of the item is $180

The values given in the question are;

Actual cost of the item Joyce bought= $108
The item was sold 40 percent off the original price

The original price can be calculated as follows

The first step is to subtract 40% from 100%

100%- 40%

= 60%

Let x represent the original price of the item

60/100x= 108

0.6x= 108

Divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 0.6

0.6x/0.6= 108/0.6

Answer:  y = -3x-3 (Choose values for x)

Step-by-step explanation:

1st change the equation to y = mx+b form

In order to change the equation to y = mx+b form subtract the 3x to both sides.
The equation now becomes y = -3x-3

2nd we can either choose values for x such has (-2,-1,0,1,2) and plug in those values into our equation y = -3x-3
For example, if we plug in x= -2 we get y= -3(-2)-3 which becomes y =3. We then plot the point (-2,3) because -2 is our x coordinate and 3 is our y coordinate.
Or we can plug the equation into a calculator that will graph the equation for you.

Generally, The middle number in a list that is arranged from smallest to greatest is referred to as the median. On the list, the value that occurs most often is known as the mode. Therefore

median=77

Generally, In mathematics, particularly statistics, the term "mean" may refer to a number of different concepts. The purpose of each mean is to summarize a certain collection of data, often for the purpose of gaining a better understanding of the overall value of a specific data set.

A dataset's mean (also known as the arithmetic mean, which is distinct from the geometric mean) is calculated by dividing the sum of all of the values in the dataset by the total number of values in the dataset. It is the measure of central tendency that is used the most often, and it is sometimes referred to as the "average."
