Step-by-step explanation:

First, Erika should take the log of both sides.

log 50ˣ = log 17

Next, Erika should use the exponent property of logs.

x log 50 = log 17

Finally, Erika should divide both sides by log 50.

x = log 17 / log 50

Which statements are true for the functions g(x) = x2 and h(x) = –x2 ? Check all that apply.
Andre45 [30]
If x=0 then they have same value

1st and 2nd options are out

for x=-1
g(-1)=1
h(-1)=-1
3rd is true

4th
false

for all values except zero, g(x)>h(x)


correct ones are

g(x) > h(x) for x = -1.
For positive values of x, g(x) > h(x).
For negative values of x, g(x) > h(x).

A mirror is made of two congruent parallelograms as shown in the diagram. The parallelograms have a combined area of 9 1/3 squar
Vika [28.1K]
Given:
2 parallelograms with an area of 9 1/3 yd²
height of each parallelogram is 1 1/3 yd

Area of parallelogram = base * height

We need to divide the combined area into two to get each parallelogram's base.

9 1/3 = ((9*3)+1)/3 = 28/3

28/3 ÷ 2 = 28/3 * 1/2 = 28/6 yd² or 4 4/6 yd² ⇒ 4 2/3 yd²

Area of each parallelogram is 4 2/3 yd²

4 2/3 yd² = base * 1 1/3 yd

14/3 yd² ÷ 4/3 yd = base

14/3 yd² x 3/4 yd = base
14*3 / 3*4 = base
42 / 12 = base
3 6/12 yd = base
or 3 1/2 yd = base

a) the base of each parallelogram is 3 1/2 yards
b) we can assume that the two parallelograms form a rectangle.
area of a rectangle is length times width.

length is 3 1/2 yds * 2 = 7 yds
width is 3 1/2 yds

Area of rectangle = 7 yds * 3 1/2 yds
Area = 7 yd * 7/2 yd
Area = 7*7 / 2 yd²
Area = 49 / 2 yd²
Area = 24 1/2 yd²

hree TAs are grading a final exam. There are a total of 60 exams to grade. (a) How many ways are there to distribute the exams a
nalin [4]

Answer:

a. 205320

b. 34220

c. 60! / (35)! (25)! + 60!/ (40)!(20)! + 60!/ (45)! (15)!

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of ways to dustribute exams among the TA's is:

n / (n - r)!

n= number of things to choose from

r= Choosing r number

60P3= 60! / (60 - 3)!

(60)(59)(58)(57)! / (57)!

=205320

B) The number of ways to dustribute the exams among the TA's is:

n! /(n - r)! r!

60C3= 60! /(60 - 3)! 3!

= 60!/ 57! 3!

= 60 × 59 × 58 / 3 × 2 × 1

= 34220

C) The required number of ways is:

60C25 + 60C20 + 60C15

= 60! / (35)! (25)! + 60!/ (40)!(20)! + 60!/ (45)! (15)!

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

0.278

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Nuri joins a game for a car. The rule is that Nuri pick one key from box either A, B, or C. A box has two keys but only one can be used. B box has three keys but only one can be used. C box has two keys but none of them can be used.

Each box is equally likely to be selected.

In other words

P(A) = P(B) = P(C)=\frac{1}{3}

If A is selected then probability of winning is using the correct key out of two keys i.e. 0.5

If B is selected then probability of winning is using the correct key out of three keys i.e. 0.333

If c is selected then probability of winning is using the correct key out of two keys i.e. 0.00

So the probability that Nuri can win the car

= \frac{1}{3} *0.5+\frac{1}{3} *0.333+\frac{1}{3} *0\\= 0.278

nicholas started a canned food drive at school. the equation representing this is y=235=15, where x is the number of days, and y
qwelly [4]

Answer:

195 cans will be left after 10 days

Sample Answer: I am given a number of cans, which is y, and I need to find the number of days, which is x. To do this, I would substitute 2600 for y, to get 2600 = 235x + 15. Solving for x, I would get x = 11. Thus, it would take 11 days to collect 2600 cans.
