A box of chocolates contains five milk chocolates, three dark chocolates, and 8 white chocolates. You randomly select and eat three chocolates. The first piece is milk chocolate, the second is dark chocolate, and the third is white chocolate.

What is the probability that this event happens? Show all of your steps used to solve this problem.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

3.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an example of dependent events. When events are dependent, you have to multiply the probability of each event that happens after each other. Probability is desired outcome over all possible outcomes. For the milk chocolate, there are 5 pieces we can pick out of 16, so it's 5/16. Next, the probability of dark chocolate is 3/15 (There is one less piece of chocolate overall now). For the white chocolate, the possibility is 8/14. So now we have to multiply:

5*3*8             120           1

______   =  _____  =  ___ = (about) 0.036

16*15*14        3360        28

So, that's 3.6%

Hope this helps!

What is the Area of the circle in pi units if the diameter is 6 cm?

Answers

Answer:

9π cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given diameter of circle (d) = 6cm

radius (r) = d/2 = 6/2 = 3cm

Area of circle = πr²

= π × 3²

= π × 9

= 9π

The area of the circle in pi units when the diameter of this circle is 6 centimeters is 9π centimeters.

What is the area of the circle?

The area of the circle is the space occupied by it. It is the product of pi and square of its diameter divided by 4. The area of the circle can be given as,

[tex]A=\pi\dfrac{d^2}{4}[/tex]

Here (d) is the diameter of the circle. The diameter of the circle is 6 cm.

[tex]d=6[/tex]

Put this value in the above formula to find the area of the circle as,

[tex]A=\pi\dfrac{6^2}{4}\\A=\pi\dfrac{36}{4}\\A=\pi\times9\\A=9\pi\rm\; cm[/tex]

Thus, the area of the circle in pi units when the diameter of this circle is 6 centimeters is 9π centimeters.

if a = 5+2√6 then find a²-1÷a²

Answers

Answer:

a²+1/a² = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given, a = (3+√5)/2

We have to find the value of a² + 1/a².

1/a = 1/((3+√5)/2) = 2/(3+√5)

By taking conjugate,

2/(3+√5) = 2/(3+√5) × (3-√5)/(3-√5)

= 2(3-√5) / (3+√5)(3-√5)

By using algebraic identity,

(a - b)(a + b) = a² - b²

(3+√5)(3-√5) = (3)² - (√5)²

= 9 - 5

= 4

2(3-√5) / (3+√5)(3-√5) = 2(3-√5) / 4

So, 1/a = (3-√5)/2

Now, a² = [(3+√5)/2]²

= (3+√5)²/4

By using algebraic identity,

(a + b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

(3+√5)² = (3)² + 2(3)(√5) + (√5)²

= 9 + 6√5 + 5

= 14 + 6√5

a² = (14+6√5)/4

= 2(7+3√5)/4

a² = (7+3√5)/2

Now, 1/a² = [(3-√5)/2]²

= (3-√5)²/4

By using algebraic identity,

(a - b)² = a² - 2ab + b²

(3-√5)² = (3)² - 2(3)(√5) + (√5)²

= 9 - 6√5 + 5

= 14 - 6√5

1/a² = (14-6√5)/4

1/a² = (7-3√5)/2

a²+1/a² = (7+3√5)/2 + (7-3√5)/2

= 7/2 + 3√5/2 + 7/2 - 3√5/2

= 7/2 + 7/2

= 7

Therefore, a²+1/a² = 7

how would I solve y=9(x+3)(x-1) I need to find the vertex and the X intercepts​

Answers

Answer:

See below ~

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the x-intercepts :

The x-intercept's y-value is always 00 = 9(x + 3)(x - 1)x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = -3x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = 1So, hence the x-intercepts are : (-3, 0) and (1, 0)

Finding the vertex :

Expand the polynomial from factorized formy = 9(x + 3)(x - 1)y = 9(x² + 3x - x - 3)y = 9(x² + 2x - 3)y = 9x² + 18x - 27Vertex = (h, k)h = -b/2a = -18/2(9) = -1k = 9(-1 + 3)(-1 - 1)k = 9(2)(-2)k = 9(-4) = -36Vertex = (-1, -36)

Answer:

x-intercepts:  x = 1 and x = -3

vertex:  (-1, -36)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercepts

x-intercepts are when y = 0

⇒  9(x + 3)(x - 1) = 0

Divide both sides by 9:

⇒  (x + 3)(x - 1) = 0

Therefore:

⇒  (x + 3) = 0 ⇒ x = -3

⇒  (x - 1) = 0 ⇒ x = 1

Therefore the x-intercepts are x = 1 and x = -3

Vertex

Vertex form:  [tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]  where (h, k) is the vertex

Completing the square

[tex]\begin{aligned}y & =ax^2+bx+c\\& =a\left(x^2+\dfrac{b}{a}x\right)+c\\\\& =a\left(x^2+\dfrac{b}{a}x+\left(\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)^2\right)+c-a\left(\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)^2\\\\& =a\left(x-\left(-\dfrac{b}{2a}\right)\right)^2+c-\dfrac{b^2}{4a}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore:

[tex]y=9(x+3)(x-1)[/tex]

[tex]\implies y=9x^2+18x-27[/tex]

Completing the square to rewrite the equation in vertex form:

[tex]\begin{aligned}y & =9x^2+18x-27\\& =9\left(x^2+\dfrac{18}{9}x\right)-27\\\\& =a\left(x^2+\dfrac{18}{9}x+\left(\dfrac{18}{2(9)}\right)^2\right)-27-9\left(\dfrac{18}{2(9)}\right)^2\\\\& =9\left(x-\left(-\dfrac{18}{2(9)}\right)\right)^2-27-\dfrac{18^2}{4(9)}\\\\& =9(x+1)^2-36\end{aligned}[/tex]

Therefore, the vertex is (-1, -36)
