Your drawer has 5 pairs of black socks, 4 pairs of gray socks, 2 pairs of white socks, 1 pair of brown socks, and 1 pair of blue

socks. the lights are out, and you're in a rush to leave. what is the smallest number of socks you should pull out so that you can be assured that you will have at least one pair of matching socks? note that there are no left or right socks and two socks of the same color will be considered matching.

5 pairs of black socks*2 because it’s a pair= 10 socks
4 pairs of grey socks*2=8
2 pairs of white socks*2=4
1 pair of brown socks*2=2
1 pair of blue socks*2=2
10 socks+8 socks+4 socks+2 socks+ 2 socks=26 socks in total
26/2=13+1 because you need to be sure you get one pair of socks. The smallest amount of socks you would have to grab to get at least one matching pair is 14 socks.

The center of a hyperbola is (−2,4) , and one vertex is (−2,7) . The slope of one of the asymptotes is 1/2 .
maxonik [38]

Answer:

<h2>The equation is \frac{(y - 4)^{2} }{9 } - \frac{(x + 2)^{2} }{36 } = 1.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a hyperbola is represented by \frac{(y - k)^{2} }{b^{2} } - \frac{(x - h)^{2} }{a^{2} } = 1, where (h, k) is the center of the hyperbola.

As per the given condition, h = -2 and k = 4.

Thus, the equation becomes \frac{(y - 4)^{2} }{b^{2} } - \frac{(x + 2)^{2} }{a^{2} } = 1.

One vertex is (-2, 7).

Hence, putting x = -2 and y = 7, we get b^{2} = 9.

The slope of the asymptote is \frac{b}{a}.

Hence, \frac{b^{2} }{a^{2} } = \frac{1}{4} \\a^{2} = 36.

Thus, the equation is \frac{(y - 4)^{2} }{9 } - \frac{(x + 2)^{2} }{36 } = 1.

Chadwick bought 50 shares of Chipotle stock on Nov 1, 2016 for $396.33 share. He sold the shares four years later, with the per
scoray [572]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of shares purchased (2016) = 50

Purchase price of shares $396.33 per share

Closing price per share four years later = $778.38

A) What did Chadwick pay for all of the shares in 2016?

Purchase price per share × number of shares.

$396.33 × 50 = $19,816.50

B) What was the closing value of all of the shares four years later?

Closing price per share × number of ahaf

=$778.38 × 50

= $38,919

C.) Profit on stock :

$(38,919 - 19,816.50)

= $19,102.5

D) What is his rate of return on his shares when he sold them?

(Current Purchase - initial value) /current price

(778.3 - 396.33) / 396.33

= (381.97 / 396.33) 100%

= 0.9637675

$1.12 for 8.2 ounces? Unit Rate
Reil [10]
That is around 13 or 14 cents. The specific answer is 13.65853659 cents, but you can either round up to 14 or round down to 13 (rounding up to 14 is the correct way to do it.)

First you divide 1.12 by 8.2 to get the unit rate because It takes $1.12 to buy 8.2 ounces. 1.12/8.2=13.65853659
