Answer: A is the right answer .Probability of the book chosen is a biography is \frac{2}{15}.


Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given graph or pie chart

The number of biography books=4

Total books= Romance books+ Science fiction books+ Biography books+Adventure books =2+14+4+10=30

Let B be the event of choosing a biography book then

Probability of the book chosen is a biography P(B)==\frac{biography\ books}{total\ books}=\frac{4}{30}=\frac{2}{15}

Therefore, Probability of the book chosen is a biography is  \frac{2}{15}.

14 science fiction, 2 romance, 4 biography, 10 adventure...total of 30 books

P(biography) = biographies / total books = 4/30 which reduces to 2/15 <=

Step-by-step explanation:

1.\sum_{i=1}^{5}3i

The simplest method is "brute force".  Calculate each term and add them up.

∑ = 3(1) + 3(2) + 3(3) + 3(4) + 3(5)

∑ = 3 + 6 + 9 + 12 + 15

∑ = 45

2.\sum_{k=1}^{4}(2k)^{2}

∑ = (2×1)² + (2×2)² + (2×3)² + (2×4)²

∑ = 4 + 16 + 36 + 64

∑ = 120

3.\sum_{k=3}^{6}(2k-10)

∑ = (2×3−10) + (2×4−10) + (2×5−10) + (2×6−10)

∑ = -4 + -2 + 0 + 2

∑ = -4

4. 1 + 1/4 + 1/16 + 1/64 + 1/256

This is a geometric sequence where the first term is 1 and the common ratio is 1/4.  The nth term is:

a = 1 (1/4)ⁿ⁻¹

So the series is:

\sum_{j=1}^{7}(\frac{1}{4})^{j-1}

5. -5 + -1 + 3 + 7 + 11

This is an arithmetic sequence where the first term is -5 and the common difference is 4.  The nth term is:

a = -5 + 4(n−1)

a = -5 + 4n − 4

a = 4n − 9

So the series is:

\sum_{j=1}^{5}(4j-9)

What is the value of x in the equation 8x – 2y = 48, when y = 4?
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

8x-2y=48, replace y with 4, 8x-2(4)=48, multiply, 8x-8=48, add 8 to both sides to remove the -8, 8x=56 and finally divide by 8 to remove 8 from x, x=7.

the temperature of the water in Emily's fish tank was 78 degrees F on Sunday the water temperature was changed by -3 on Monday a
SpyIntel [72]

To solve this problem, let us analyze this step by step. The temperature for each day is as follows:

 

Water temperature on Sunday = 78 degrees F

Water temperature on Monday = changed by -3 degrees F

Water temperature on Tuesday = changed by 3 degrees F

 

We can see that the total change of water temperature from Sunday to Tuesday is:

-3 + 3 = 0

Therefore there is zero overall change. There the integer which represents the temperature change is “0”.

 

Since the overall change in water temperature is zero, hence the temperature on Sunday and on Tuesday is similar.

Water temperature on Tuesday = 78 degrees F
