Given the table:
Outcome Probability
1 0.2
2 0.6
3 0.2
Let A be the event "the outcome less than or equal to 2.
Let B be the event "the outcome is a divisor of 3.
Let's find P(A ∩ B).
To find P(A ∩ B) let's first find P(A) and P(B).
Numbers less than or equal to 2 = 2 and 1
Outcomes less than or equal to 2 = P(2) or P(1)
Probability the outcome is less than or equal to 2 = P(A) = 0.2 + 0.6 = 0.8
Divisor of 3 = 1 and 3
Outcome is a divisor of 3 = P(1) and P(3)
Probability the outcome is a divisor of 3 = P(B) = 0.2 x 0.2 = 0.04
To find P(A ∩ B), we have:
P(A ∩ B) = P(A) x P(B) = 0.04 x 0.8 = 0.032

Suppose you found a CD that pays 2.1% interest compounded monthly for 6 years. If you deposit $12,000 now, how much will you have in the account in 6 years? (Rounded to the nearest cent.) What was the interest earned? Now suppose that you would like to have $20,000 in the account in 6 years. How much would you need to deposit now?
The interest earned is the difference between the initial amount that was deposited in the bank and the amount that is in the account after six years.
[tex]\begin{gathered} A\text{ = 12000\lparen1+}\frac{2.1\%}{12})^{6*12} \\ This\text{ is from the compound interest formula.} \\ A\text{ = 13609.89} \end{gathered}[/tex]Amount in the account: $13609.89
The interest earned is therefore: 13609.89 - 12000 = $1609.89
[tex]\begin{gathered} 20000\text{ = P\lparen1+}\frac{2.1\%}{12})^6*12 \\ 17634.24\text{ = P} \end{gathered}[/tex]To earn $20000 in six years he should invest $17634.24.
The map above is a road map of Learner County. Each centimeter on the map represents 30 miles. About how far is it from the town of Presley to Mt. Sametone on the road shown in red?A. 270 milesB. 180 milesC. 360 milesD. 390 miles
Scaling
Each centimeter on the map represents 30 miles in Learner County.
The town of Presley and Mt. Samerone are separated by a horizontal distance of 8 centimeters,
If we only consider the horizontal component of the distance, then both points are separated by 8 * 30 = 240 miles.
Since there is not an option for this number, we choose the closest, considering they are including a smaller vertical distance in the calculations, thus the answer is:
A. 270 miles
Answer:
A. 270 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
I am thinking of a number. It has two digits. When I reverse the digits and then add the new number to the original number I get 33. What is the number?
Let x and y be the digits.
The original number has two digits that means that one is the tens and the other the ones, in this case let x be the tens and y the ones, then we have the number:
[tex]10x+y[/tex]if we reverse it this means that the y become the tens and x becomes the ones then we have the number:
[tex]10y+x[/tex]And if we add them the result is 33, then we have the equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} (10x+y)+(10y+x)=33 \\ 11x+11y=33 \\ x+y=3 \\ y=3-x \end{gathered}[/tex]This means that y has to be 3-x. Now, since we both numbers to have two digits x can't be zero nor 3. Then has to be 1 or 2.
If x=1 then y=2 and the original number is 12.
If x=2 then y=1 and the original number is 21.
Notice how in both cases we get the other one when reversed, therefore the numbers we are looking for are 12 and 21.
Solve the systems using subsitution for 1 and 2Solve the system using elimination for question 3

Solve equation (a) for y :
3x+y = 2
y= 2-3x
Replace the y value on (b)
6x+2(2-3x) =11
6x+4-6x=11

A ball is thrown in the air from a platform. The path of the ball can be modeled by the function h(t)=-16 t^{2}+32t+4 where h(t) is the height in feet and t is the time in seconds.How long does the ball take to reach its maximum height?
Answer:
1 second
Explanation:
The equation that models the path of the ball is given below:
[tex]h\mleft(t\mright)=-16t^2+32t+4[/tex]To determine how long it takes the ball takes to reach its maximum height, we find the equation of the line of symmetry.
[tex]\begin{gathered} t=-\frac{b}{2a},a=-16,b=32 \\ t=-\frac{32}{2(-16)} \\ =-\frac{32}{-32} \\ t=1 \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus, we see that it takes the ball 1 second to reach its maximum height.
A loan of $43,000 is made at 5.25% interest, compounded annually. After how many years will the amount due reach $64,000 or more? (Use the calculator provided if necessary.)Write the smallest possible whole number answer.
Answer:
8 years
Explanation:
For a compound interest loan compounded annually, the amount due after t years is calculated using the formula:
[tex]A(t)=P(1+r)^t\text{ where }\begin{cases}P={Loan\;Amount} \\ {r=Annual\;Interest\;Rate}\end{cases}[/tex]We want to find when the amount due will reach $64,000 or more.
[tex]43000(1+0.0525)^t\geq64,000[/tex]The equation is solved for t:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ Divide both sides by }43000 \\ \frac{43,000(1+0.0525)^t}{43000}\geqslant\frac{64,000}{43000} \\ (1.0525)^t\geq\frac{64}{43} \\ \text{Take the log of both sides:} \\ \log(1.0525)^t\geqslant\log(\frac{64}{43}) \\ \text{By the power law of logarithm:} \\ \implies t\operatorname{\log}(1.0525)\geq\operatorname{\log}(\frac{64}{43}) \\ \text{ Divide both sides by }\operatorname{\log}(1.0525) \\ t\geq\frac{\operatorname{\log}(\frac{64}{43})}{\operatorname{\log}(1.0525)} \\ t\geq7.77 \end{gathered}[/tex]The number of years when the amount due will reach $64,000 or more is 8 years.

an object is thrown down from the top of a building. A height function for the object is given by the equation h=16(8+ t ) (5 - t) where T is the number of seconds elapsed since the object was thrown and H is the height of the object above the ground ( in feet). explain how to reason about the structure of the equation to determine when the object will hit the ground
The height is a function of the time, given by the following equation:
h(t) = 16(8+t)(5-t)
The object hits the ground when h(t) = 0. So
16(8 + t)(5 - t) = 0
This means that:
8 + t = 0 or 5 - t = 0
8 + t = 0
t = -8
We cannot have negative values for t.
5 - t = 0
-t = -5 *(-1)
t = 5
The object hits the ground when t = 5, which was easy to find since the equation was already factored by it's roots.

Find the GCF : (7x^2y ,x^2y^2,21x^4y^2)
The given expressions are
[tex]7x^2y,x^2y^2,21x^4y^2[/tex]We have to find the greatest common factor of the coefficients and variables.
The Greatest Common Factor between coefficients is 7 because that's the highest factor that's common.
The Greatest Common Factor between variables is
[tex]x^2y[/tex]Hence, the GCF is[tex]7x^2y[/tex]Determine whether triangle DEF with vertices D(6, -6), E(39, -12), and F(24, 18) isscalene (no congruent sides), isosceles (two congruent sides), or equilateral (threecongruent sides).
We have three given points. We need to graph them, and then find the distances between them.
We need to remember that we can classify the triangles according to their sides:
1. A triangle with three congruent sides is an equilateral triangle.
2. A triangle with two congruent sides is an isosceles triangle.
3. A triangle with no congruent sides is a scalene triangle.
Additionally, we know that a segment is congruent to other when it has the same size as the other.
Then we can graph the three points as follows:
Now, we need to find the distances between the sides of the triangle using the distance formula as follows:
[tex]d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]This is the distance formula for points (x1, y1) and (x2, y2).
Finding the distance between points D and EThe coordinates for the two points are D(6, -6) and E(39,-12), and we can label them as follows:
• (x1, y1) = (6, -6) and (x2, y2) = (39, -12)
Then we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(39-6)^2+(-12-(-6))^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(33)^2+(-12+6)^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{33^2+(-6)^2}=\sqrt{1089+36}=\sqrt{1125} \\ \\ d_{DE}=\sqrt{1125}\approx33.5410196625 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the distance between points D and E is √1125.
And we need to repeat the same steps to find the other distances.
Finding the distance between points E and FWe can proceed similarly as before:
The coordinates of the points are E(39, -12) and F(24, 18)
• (x1, y1) = (39, -12)
,• (x2, y2) = (24, 18)
Then we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(24-39)^2+(18-(-12))^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(-15)^2+(18+12)^2}=\sqrt{(-15)^2+(30)^2}=\sqrt{225+900} \\ \\ d_{EF}=\sqrt{1125}\approx33.5410196625 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then the distance between points E and F is √1125.
Finding the distance between F and D
The coordinates of the points are F(24, 18) and D(6, -6)
• (x1, y1) = (24, 18) and (x2, y2) = (6, -6)
Then we have:
[tex]\begin{gathered} d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{(6-24)^2+(-6-18)^2}=\sqrt{(-18)^2+(-24)^2}=\sqrt{324+576} \\ \\ d=\sqrt{900}=30 \\ \\ d_{FD}=30 \end{gathered}[/tex]Now, we have the following measures for each of the sides of the triangle:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \begin{equation*} d_{DE}=\sqrt{1125}\approx33.5410196625 \end{equation*} \\ \\ d_{EF}=\sqrt{1125}\approx33.5410196625 \\ \\ d_{FD}=30 \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, in summary, according to the results, we have two sides that are congruent (they have the same size). Therefore, the triangle DEF is an isosceles triangle.
What is the missing exponent?w^3 x w^? = w^-6
Let the missing exponent be a,

1. Determine the domain and range of the quadratic function shown in the graph and represent the domainand range using inequalities.

Using inequalities:

The two sections meet at an angle of 145°. How much extra cable is needed due to going around the pond?
If the cable could went through the pond there would be only one straight section conecting the two points. If we draw this new section in the picture we'll form a triangle:
In order to find how much extra cable is needed because of the pond we must find the length of the imaginary cable that connects the points through the dot, for this length we are going to use x.
The cosine rule will help as find it. Let's assume that we have a triangle with an angle A which has an opposite side with a length a and the lengths of the other two sides are b and c. Then the cosine rule states the following:
[tex]a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc\cos A[/tex]We can apply this to our triangle. The 145° angle that we know is A, its opposite side a is x and the remaining sides b and c are the two cable sections of 371 m and 440 m. Then we get:
[tex]\begin{gathered} x^2=371^2+440^2-2\cdot371\cdot440\cdot\cos145^{\circ} \\ x^2=598677.7594 \end{gathered}[/tex]Then we apply a square root to both sides of this equation:
[tex]\begin{gathered} \sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{598677.7594} \\ x=773.74 \end{gathered}[/tex]So without the pond the length of the cable would have been of 773.74 m. In order to find the amount of extra cable needed we must take the total length of both sections and substract 773.74 m from it. Then we get:
[tex]371+440-773.74=37.26[/tex]AnswerThen the answer is 37.26m.
