Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen code starts with M and ends with E is 0.05 ....

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given statement we have to make five letter code from  A, F, E, R, and M without repeating any letter. We have to find that what is probability that a randomly chosen code starts with M and ends with E.

Thus the probability of picking the first letter M = 1/5

After that we require the sequence (not E, not E, not E) which is equal to:

= 3/4 * 2/3* *1/2

= 1/4

Now multiply 1/5 and 1/4

1/5 * 1/4

= 1/20

= 0.05

Therefore the probability that a randomly chosen code starts with M and ends with E is 0.05 ....

Given circle X with radius 10 units and chord AB with length 12 units, what is the length of segment CX, which bisects the chord
andrew-mc [135]
Consider the circle with center X, as shown in the figure. 

Draw the diameter of the circle which is parallel to cherd AB, as shown in the figure.

Since the diameter and AB are parallel, then the line segment XC which bisects AB at C, will be perpendicular to AB.

SO triangle XCB is a right triangle. Thus the length of CX, by the Pythagorean theorem is  

\sqrt{ XB^{2}- CB^{2}} = \sqrt{ 10^{2}- CB^{6}}= \sqrt{100-36}= \sqrt{64}=8 units.


Answer: 8 units

On babylonian tablet ybc 4652, a problem is given that translates to this equation: x (x/7) (1/11) (x (x/7)) = 60 what is the so
Yanka [14]
Thanks for posting your question here. The answer to the above problem is x = <span>48.125. Below is the solution:
</span>
 x+x/7+1/11(x+x/7)=60 
x = x/1 = x • 7/7
x <span>• 7 + x/ 7 = 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>x + x/7 + 1/11 <span>• 8x/7 - 60 = 0
</span>8x <span>• 11 + 8x/ 77 = 96x/ 77
</span>96x - 4620 = 12 <span>• (8x-385)
</span>8x - 385 = 0
x = 48.125

a direct variation function contains the points ( -8, -6 ) and (12,9 ) . Which equation represents the function ?
9966 [12]

Answer:

y = \frac{3}{4} x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the quantities vary directly then the equation relating them is

y = kx ← k is the constant of variation

To find k use either of the 2 given points

Using (12, 9), that is x = 12 when y = 9, then

k = \frac{y}{x} = \frac{9}{12} = \frac{3}{4}

y = \frac{3}{4} x ← equation of variation
