You want to make five-letter codes that use the letters A, F, E, R, and M without repeating any letter. What is the probability

that a randomly chosen code starts with M and ends with E?

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 ....

The base b(t)b(t)b, (, t, )of a triangle is decreasing at a rate of 131313 millimeters per minute and the height h(t)h(t)h, (, t
dem82 [27]

Answer:

  8.5 square mm per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1/2bh

A' = (1/2)(b'h +bh') . . . . differentiating with respect to time

A' = (1/2)((-13)(1) +(5)(6)) = (1/2)(17) = 8.5 . . . . mm²/min

The area is increasing at the rate of 8.5 mm²/min.

_____

<em>Numerical solution</em>

Consider the triangle dimensions .01 minutes before and after the time of interest.

  before: base = 5 + 0.13 = 5.13 mm; height = 1 - 0.06 = 0.94 mm. area = 2.4111 mm²

  after: base = 5 -0.13 = 4.87 mm; height = 1 +.06 = 1.06 mm. area = 2.5811 mm²

Average rate of change in that period is

  (2.5811 -2.4111)/0.02 = .17/.02 = 8.5 . . . . mm²/min

_____

<em>Comment on the numbers</em>

Note that we have assumed the base is decreasing at 13 mm/min. Quite often, division bars get lost on Brainly, so we're not sure this isn't 1/3 mm/min. At the assumed rate, the triangle will disappear in 5/13 minutes, about 23.08 seconds, when the base becomes zero. Of course, it only came into existence 1/6 minute (10 seconds) ago, when the height became non-zero.

Find the general solution of y''' + 6y'' + y' − 34y = 0 if it is known that y1 = e−4x cos(x) is one solution.
SashulF [63]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given is a differential equation of III order,

y''' + 6y'' + y' - 34y = 0

The characteristic equation would be cubic as

m^3+6m^2+m-34=0

By trial and error, we find that

f(2) = 2^3+6(2^2)+2-34 =0\\

Thus m=2 is one solution

Since given that e^{-4x} cos xis one solution we get

m = -4+i and hence other root is conjugate m=-4-i

Hence general solution would be

y=Ae^{2x} +e^{-4x} (Bcosx +C sinx)

Which sequences are arithmetic? Check all that apply.
Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

Option C and E are correct.

The sequences which are arithmetic:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Arithmetic sequence states that a sequence in which a common difference between each consecutive term is constant.

Common difference(d) = a_{n+1}-a_n for every natural number n.

Option A:

-5, 5, -5, 5, -5, .....

5-(-5) = 5+5 = 10 ,

-5 -5 = -10 .....

Since, the common difference for the given sequence is not constant.

Option B:

96, 48, 24, 12, 6

48 -96 = -48

24-48 = -24 ....

Common difference for the given sequence is not constant.

Option C:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

5.5-18  = -12.5

-7 -5.5 = -12.5 ....

∴Common difference for the sequence is constant.

Option D:

-1, -3, -9, -27, -81 ,....

-3 -(-1) = -3+1 = -2

-9-(-3) = -9+3 = -6 ....

∴Common difference for the sequence is not constant.

Option E:

16, 32, 48, 64, 80

32-16 = 16

48 - 32 = 16 and so on...

∴Common difference for the sequence is constant.

Therefore, the sequences which are arithmetic are:

18, 5.5, -7, -19.5, -32,....

16, 32, 48, 64, 80
