Which exponential expression is equivalent to the one below?

Solve the following inequality: 38 < 4x + 3 + 7 – 3x.

DochEvi [55]

38 < 4x + 3 +7 - 3x (original equation)
38 < 4x - 3x + 3 + 7 (combine like terms)
38 < x + 10 (simplify)
38 - 10 < x + 10 - 10 (subtract 10 from both sides to get (x) alone)
28 < x (simplify)
x > 28 (switch to get x on the left (its proper equation writing >.<) )

Mrs.Steﬀen’s third grade class has 30 students in it. The students are divided into three groups(numbered 1, 2,and 3),each havin

qaws [65]

Answer:

a. $\\ 10! = 3628800$ ;

b. $\\ 10!*10!*10! = 47784725839872000000 = 4.7784725839872*10^{19}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need here to apply the Multiplication Principle or the Fundamental Principle of Counting for each answer. Answer b needs an extra reasoning for being completed.

The Multiplication Principle states that if there are n ways of doing something and m ways of doing another thing, then there are n x m ways of doing both (Rule of product (2020), in Wikipedia).

<h3>In how many ways can ten students line up? </h3>

There are ten students. When one is selected, there is no other way to select it again. So, no repetition is allowed.

Then, in the beginning, there are 10 possibilities for 10 students; when one is selected, there are nine possibilities left. When another is selected, eight possibilities are left to form the file, and so on.

Thus, we need to multiply the possibilities after each selection: that is why the Multiplication Principle is important here.

This could be expressed mathematically using n!:

$\\ n! = n * (n-1)! * (n-2)! *...* 2*1.$

For instance, $\\ 5! = 5 * (5-1)! * (5-2)! *...*2*1 = 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120.$

So, for the case in question, the ten students can line up in:

$\\ 10! = 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 3628800$ ways to line up in a single file.

<h3>Second Question</h3>

For this question, we need to consider the former reasoning with extra consideration in mind.

The members of Group 1 can occupy only the following places in forming the file:

$\\ G1 = \{ 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28\}^{th}$ places.

The members of Group 2 only:

$\\ G2 = \{ 2, 5, 8, 11, 14, 17, 20, 23, 26, 29\}^{th}$ places.

And the members of Group 3, the following only ones:

$\\ G3 = \{ 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30\}^{th}$ places.

Well, having into account these possible places for each member of G1, G2 and G3, there are: 10! ways for lining up members of G1; 10! ways for lining up members of G2 and, also, 10! ways for lining up members of G3.

After using the Multiplication Principle, we have, thus:

$\\ 10! * 10! * 10! = 47784725839872000000 = 4.7784725839872 *10^{19}$ ways the students can line up to come in from recess.

Romashka [77]

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

Every day, Jorge buys a lottery ticket. Each ticket has a 0.16 probability of winning a prize. After six days, what is the probability that Jorge has won at least one prize? Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answer:

The probability that Jorge has won at least one prize after six days is

P(at least 1 win) = 0.6487

Step-by-step explanation:

Every day, Jorge buys a lottery ticket which has a 0.16 chance of winning a prize.

We want to find out the probability that Jorge has won at least one prize after six days.

P(at least 1 win) = 1 - P(not winning for 6 days)

We know that the probability of winning is 0.16 then the probability of not winning is

P(not winning) = 1 - 0.16 = 0.84

For 6 days,

P(not winning for 6 days) = 0.84×0.84×0.84×0.84×0.84×0.84

P(not winning for 6 days) = 0.84⁶

P(not winning for 6 days) = 0.3513

Finally,

P(at least 1 win) = 1 - P(not winning for 6 days)

P(at least 1 win) = 1 - 0.3513

P(at least 1 win) = 0.6487

a scale drawing of a rectangular park is 5 inches wide and 7 inches long. the actual park is 280 yards long. whats the area of t

mars1129 [50]

7 inches → 280 yards
1 inch → 280 ÷ 7 = 40 yards
5 inches → 40 x 5 = 200 yards

Area = 280 x 200 = 56 000 yards

Answer: 56 000 yards

A graphing calculator shows the rocks are at the same height 1.5 seconds after they are released.

That height is 3.975 meters.

f(x) = g(x)
-4.9x^2 +15 = -4.9x^2 +10x
15 = 10x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add 4.9x^2
