Answer:

All the expressions other than option E, is equivalent to the expression 18m - 12.

Step-by-step explanation:

A. 6m - 4 + 6m -4 + 6m - 4

or 6m+6m+6m -4 -4 -4

or 18m -12

B. 12m + 6 - 6m -6

or 12m - 6m + 6 - 6

or 6m

C.6(3m - 2)

or 18m - 12

D.3(6m - 4)

or 18m - 12

E. 24n - 4² + 8 -6m

This option can not satisfy the given expression as it contains another variable as n.

Solve the given initial value problem and determine how the interval in which the solution exists depends on the initial value y

zalisa [80]

Answer:

y has a finite solution for any value y_0 ≠ 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the differential equation

y' + y³ = 0

We can rewrite this as

dy/dx + y³ = 0

Multiplying through by dx

dy + y³dx = 0

Divide through by y³, we have

dy/y³ + dx = 0

dy/y³ = -dx

Integrating both sides

-1/(2y²) = - x + c

Multiplying through by -1, we have

1/(2y²) = x + C (Where C = -c)

Applying the initial condition y(0) = y_0, put x = 0, and y = y_0

1/(2y_0²) = 0 + C

C = 1/(2y_0²)

1/(2y²) = x + 1/(2y_0²)

2y² = 1/[x + 1/(2y_0²)]

y² = 1/[2x + 1/(y_0²)]

y = 1/[2x + 1/(y_0²)]½

This is the required solution to the initial value problem.

The interval of the solution depends on the value of y_0. There are infinitely many solutions for y_0 assumes a real number.

For y_0 = 0, the solution has an expression 1/0, which makes the solution infinite.

With this, y has a finite solution for any value y_0 ≠ 0.

There are some nickels dimes and quarters in a large piggy bank for every two nickels there are 3 dimes for every two dimes that

creativ13 [48]

We are given

piggy bank has nickels , dimes and quarters

Let's assume

number of nickels =n

every two nickels there are 3 dimes

so, number of dimes are

$=\frac{3}{2}n$

$=1.5n$

every two dimes that are 5 quarters there

so, number of quarters are

$=\frac{5}{2}\times 1.5n$

$=3.75n$

so, total number of coins = number of nickels + number of dimes +number of quarters

total number of coins =n+1.5n+3.75

there are 500 coins

so, we get

$n+1.5n+3.75n=500$

now, we can solve for n

$6.25n=500$

divide both sides by 6.25

so, we get

$n=80$

number of dimes is 1.5n

$=1.5\times 80$

$=120$

number of quarters is 3.75n

$=3.75\times 80$

$=300$

so,

Number of nickels =80

Number of dimes =120

Number of quarters =300............Answer

If two lines are perpendicular describe the relationship between their slopes

Aloiza [94]

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals. example: line a has a slope of 2/3, line b has a slope if -3/2 if they are perpendicular.

There are two misshapen coins in a box; their probabilities for landing on heads when they are flipped are, respectively, .4 and

Leokris [45]

Answer:

E(X) = 6.0706

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Define notation

X = random variable who represents the number of heads in the 10 first tosses

Y = random variable who represents the number of heads in range within toss number 4 to toss number 10

And we can define the following events

a= The first coin has been selected

b= The second coin has been selected

c= represent that we have 2 Heads within the first two tosses

2) Formulas to apply

We need to find E(X|c) = ?

If we use the total law of probability we can find E(Y)

E(Y) = E(Y|a) P(a|c) + E(Y|b)P(b|c) ....(1)

Finding P(a|c) and using the Bayes rule we have:

P(a|c) = P(c|a) P(a) / P(c) ...(2)

Replacing P(c) using the total law of probability:

P(a|c) = [P(c|a) P(a)] /[P(c|a) P(a) + P(c|b) P(b)] ... (3)

We can find the probabilities required

P(a) = P(b) = 0.5

P(c|a) = (3C2) (0.4^2) (0.6) = 0.288

P(c|b) = (3C2)(0.7^2) (0.3) = 0.441

Replacing the values into P(a|c) we got

P(a|c) = (0.288 x 0.5) /(0.288x 0.5 + 0.441x0.5) = 0.144/ 0.3645 = 0.39506

Since P(a|c) + P(b|c) = 1. With this we can find P(b|c) = 1 - P(a|c) = 1-0.39506 = 0.60494

After this we can find the expected values

E(Y|a) = 7x 0.4 = 2.8

E(Y|b) = 7x 0.7 = 4.9

Finally replacing the values into equation (1) we got

E(Y|c) = 2.8x 0.39506 + 4.9x0.60494 = 4.0706

And finally :

E(X|c) = 2+ E(Y|c) = 2+ 4.0706 = 6.0706
