The function of the trapezoid area is:

A(x)=(B+b)*h/2

Where B and b are the bases and h is the height.

With the given data: h=10 B and b =7 and x (it may vary which one is bigger)

-----------

So that function becomes:

A(x)=(7+x)*10/2

A(x)=(7+x)*5

----------

So if you want the inverse function, you have to operate to find x:

A(x)/5=7+x

A(x)/5-7=x

----------

So the new function is:

x(A)=A/5-7

Carl bought some stock at $25 a share it increased 1 1/2 times its value. How much is the stock per share ?

jolli1 [7]

Answer: $37.50 per share

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the difference in the final price and the original price. Divide by the original price and multiply by 100.

37.5-25= 12.5

12.5/25= .50

.50*100= 50%

The other answers are $12.50 per share, and

The new stock is worth $37.50 per share.

When Cara drives to work, it takes her 30 minutes to drive 15 miles. On her days off, she likes to drive to her favorite donut s

brilliants [131]

Answer:

3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we find the rate at which she drives, that is her speed.

Speed is given as:

speed = distance / time

When Cara drives to work, it takes her 30 minutes to drive 15 miles. Her speed is:

s = 15 / 30 = 0.5 miles per minute.

She drives at the same rate to The Dreamy Donut Shop and it takes her 6 minutes.

From the formula of speed, distance is given as:

distance = speed * time

Therefore, the distance of The Dreamy Donut Shop is:

distance = 0.5 * 6 = 3 miles

The Dreamy Donut Shop is 3 miles away.

1. Find three rational numbers between 7/12 and 7/11

Sonbull [250]

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we need to find three rational numbers between 7/12 and 7/11.

First rational no :

$c=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{12}+\dfrac{7}{11}}{2}\\\\c=\dfrac{161}{264}$

Second rational no :

$d=\dfrac{\dfrac{7}{12}+\dfrac{161}{254}}{2}\\\\d=\dfrac{1855}{3048}$

Jordan wants to play a basketball game at a carnival. The game costs the player $5 dollar sign, 5 to play, and the player gets t

Alinara [238K]

Answer:

The expected value of Jordan gains is -1 dollar.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the following random variables. X := #of shots that Jordan makes. Then, we can can define the random variable Y of the earnings of Jordan in a game as follows

Y = 5 if X=2 (since he gets 10, but invested 5), Y=0 if X=1(since he gets the 5 back) and Y=-5 if X=0(since he doesn't get the money back). Then, in this case, we can define the probability as follows.

P(Y=5) = P(X=2), P(Y=0) = P(X=1), P(Y=-5)= P(X=0).

By definition, the expected value of Y is given by

$E[Y] = 5\cdot P(Y=5)+0\cdot P(Y=0)-5 P(Y=-5)$ . By the previous analysis, we have that

$E[Y] = 5\cdot P(X=2)-5P(X=0)$

We only need to calculate the probabilities for X. In this case, we can consider each shot independt from each other. Then, we can consider X to be distributed as a binomial random variable with n=2 trials and p=0.4 of success (since he has a 40% chance of winning).

Then, by definition

$P(X=k) = \binom{n}{k}p^k(1-p)^{n-k} = \binom{2}{k}0.4^{k}0.6^{2-k}$
