Answer:

The probability that the hail storm will happen on a Saturday is 0.1667.

Step-by-step explanation:

The month of June started on Friday.

Then June 2 is a Saturday.

Remaining 28 days.

Each week has 7 days.

There will be 4 full weeks for the month of June.

So there will be 4 more Saturdays.

Thus, there are a total of 5 Saturdays in the month of June.

Compute the probability that the hail storm will happen on a Saturday as follows:

P(hail-storm)=\frac{n(Saturdays)}{Total\ no.\ of\ days} =\frac{5}{30}= 0.1667

Thus, the probability that the hail storm will happen on a Saturday is 0.1667.

One factor of the polynomial 2x^3 - 3x^2 - 3x + 2 is ( x - 2 ). Which expression represents the other factor, or factors, of the
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial is,

2x³ - 3x² - 3x + 2

If (x - 2) is the factor of the given polynomial,

By synthetic division we can get the other factor.

2 |  2     -3       -3       2    

 

    <u>         4         2      -2          </u>

     2      1         -1        0

Therefore, other factor of the given polynomial is (2x² + x - 1)

Now (2x² + x - 1) = 2x² + 2x - x - 1

                           = 2x(x + 1) -1(x + 1)

                           = (2x - 1)(x + 1)

Therefore, factors of the given polynomial other than (x - 2) are (2x - 1) and (x + 1)

Option (D) will be the answer.

Terrence buys a new car for $20,000. The value of the car depreciates by 15% each year. If f(x) represents the value of the car
Lerok [7]

Answer

The function represents the car’s value after x years.

f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x

Reason

As given

Terrence buys a new car for $20,000.

The value of the car depreciates by 15% each year.

15 % is written in the decimal form

= \frac{15}{100}

= 0.15

Thus

The decrease in the value of car is represented by = a (1 - r)× t

Where a is the original cost

r is the depreciates rate in decimal form

t is time in years.

Here a = $20000 ,r = 0.15 , t = x years

The value of car after x years = 20,000 (1 -0.15)x

                                                 = 20000(0.85)x

Therefore the the value of the car after x years is represented by  f(x) = 20,000(0.85)x .

The measure of an angle is seventeen times the measure of a supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
blagie [28]
Supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.

n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170

so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.

Answer:

<h2>Height (h) =54.6mm</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Base (b) = 7.7mm

Area (a) = 210.21mm^2

Height (h) = ?

Area = \frac{base\times height}{2} \\\\210.21= \frac{7.7\times h}{2} \\\\210.21\times2 = 7.7\times h\\\\420.42 = 7.7 h\\\\\frac{420.42}{7.7}=\frac{7.7h}{7.7}\\\\54.6 =h\\\\h=54.6
