A box contains 6 black pens, 4 blue pens, and 7 red pens. Without looking, Clarissa randomly picks a black pen out of the box. If she chooses another pen out of the box without replacing the first one, what is the probability that she will pick a black pen both times? Write your answer as a percent.
Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

31.35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial reading:

In the box, there are:

6 Black pens4 blue pens7 red pens

Total number of pens in the box = 6 + 4 + 7

= 17

If we count pens as outcomes the total number of possible outcomes are 17.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

New reading:

Clarissa takes out a black pen from the box.

That reduces the number of black pens by 1 which increases the total number of pens by 1 as well.

So now:

Number of black pens = 6 - 1 = 5 Total number of pens = 17 - 1 = 16

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Probability:

[tex] \boxed{ \mathsf{probability = \frac{favorable \: outcomes}{total \: outcomes} }}[/tex]

If we want her to pick up a black pen, and she ends up picking one. So, we can say that the outcome is in our favor.

That makes it,

the number of favorable outcomes = number of black pens

= 5

and total outcomes = Total number of pens

= 16

[tex] \implies\mathsf{probability = \frac{5}{16} }[/tex]

For showing it as some percent we'll just multiply the fraction by 100

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \frac{5}{16} \times 100 }[/tex]

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

As a percent:

[tex] \implies \mathsf{ \underline{ 31.25 \: \% } }[/tex]

Answer:

T₁₀ = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is

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

where a is the first term and d the common difference

Here a = - 4 and d = T₂ - T₁ = - 1 - (- 4) = - 1 + 4 = 3 , then

T₁₀ = - 4 + (9 × 3) = - 4 + 27 = 23

Answer:

-4,-1,2,5 turn into consecutive terms

d=-1-(-4)

d=2-(-1)

d=5-2

d=-1-(-4) calculate the value

d=3

d=2-(-1)

d=5-2

Two legs of a right triangle are each 70 cm. If one leg grows at the rate of 5cm/min and the oth
shrinks at the rate of 5 cm/min.
A)how fast is the hypotenuse of the triangle changing 2 minutes later?

Answers

The rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 0.505 cm/min

Let L be the length of one leg and D be the length of  the other leg of the right triangle and y its hypotenuse

Since it is a right angled triangle, we have that, using Pythagoras' theorem

y² = L² + D²

Since the length of sides are the same, L = D = 70 cm.

So, y² = L² + D²

y² = 70² + 70²

y² = 2(70²)

y = 70√2

y = 98.99 cm

Also, one side increases at a rate of 5 cm/min and the other side decreases at a rate of 5 cm/min.

The increase in length of one side after 2 min is 5cm/min × 2 min = 10 cm.

So, it new length is L' = 70 + 10 = 80 cm

The decrease in length of the other side after 2 min is -5cm/min × 2 min = -10 cm.

So, it new length is D' = 70 + (-10 cm) = 60 cm

So, the new hypotenuse length is y' = √(L'² + D'²)

= √(80² + 60²)

= √(6400 + 3600)

= √10000

= 100 cm

Now, the change in length of the hypotenuse side in 2 minutes is Δy = 100 cm - 98.99 cm = 1.01 cm

So, rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 1.01 cm/2 min = 0.505 cm/min

The rate of change of the hypotenuse after 2 minutes is 0.505 cm/min

What is an equation?

Two or more expressions with an equal sign are defined as an equation.

The first equation is 54 ÷6 + 3² =4 + 4².

Simplify the equation:

54 ÷6 + 3² =4 + 4²

9 + 9 = 4 + 16

determine m, the average number of miles he would have to ride each day to meet his
goal.

Answers

Answer:

4.7 ~~~ :D

Step-by-step explanation:

t = total...i = initial amount ridden......d = days..... m = average amount of miles

---------------

t = i +dm

26.8 = 8 + 4m

----------------- solve -----------------

26.8 = 8 + 4m ----> 18.8 = 4m ----> 4.7 = m

The expression is 26.8 = 8 + 4m and the average number of, miles he would have to ride each day to meet his goal is 4.7.

What is an expression?

Expression in maths is defined as the collection of numbers variables and functions by using signs like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping can all be represented by mathematical symbols, which can also be used to indicate the logical syntax's order of operations and other features.

Let the attributes be, t = total,  i = initial amount ridden, d = days, and m = average amount of miles.

The required expression can be written as below:-

t = i +dm

26.8 = 8 + 4m

The value of average miles will be calculated by solving the expression:-

26.8 = 8 + 4m

18.8 = 4m

4.7 = m

Therefore, the expression is 26.8 = 8 + 4m and the average number of, miles he would have to ride each day to meet his goal is 4.7.

Is the sequence geometric if so identify the common ratio 1/3, 2/9, 4/27, 8/81

Answers

Answer:

It is a geometric sequence and the common scale factor is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

In an arithmetic sequence, the difference between consecutive terms is always the same.

[tex]a_n=a_1+(n-1)d[/tex]

where aₙ is the nth term, a₁ is the first term, n is the index, and d is the common difference.

In a geometric sequence, each consecutive term was multiplied by some factor over the last.

[tex]a_n=ax^n^-^1[/tex]

where aₙ is the nth term, n is the index, and x is the scale factor.

In the given sequence, there is no common difference so it is not an arithmetic sequence. There is, however, a common scale factor applied to each consecutive term. Each term is multiplied by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] over the last.

The formula for this sequence would be:

[tex]a_n=a\frac{2}{3} ^{n-1}[/tex]

Answer:

r = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If the sequence is geometric then there will be a common ratio r between consecutive terms , that is

r = a₂ ÷ a₁ = a₃ ÷ a₂ = a₄ ÷ a₃

Then

a₂ ÷ a₁ = [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] × 3 = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

a₃ ÷ a₂ = [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

a₄ ÷ a₃ = [tex]\frac{8}{81}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{4}{27}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{81}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{27}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
