Answer:

(b) 1/792

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is;

<em>Counting: Grading One professor grades homework by randomly choosing 5 out of 12 homework problems to grade.</em>

<em>(a) How many different groups of 5 problems can be chosen from the 12</em>

<em>problems?</em>

<em>(b)Probability extension: Jerry did only 5 problems of one assignment. What is the probability that the problems he did comprised the group that was selected to be graded?</em>

<u>In (a)</u>

<u></u>

Apply the formula

\frac{n!}{(n-r)!(r!)}

where n=12 and r=5

substitute values

=\frac{12!}{(12-5)!(5!)} \\\\\\=\frac{12!}{(7!)(5!)} \\\\\\=\frac{12*11*10*9*8}{5*4*3*2*1} \\\\\\=\frac{95040}{120} \\\\\\=792

In (b)

If Jerry did only 5 problems of one assignment then the probability  will be

\frac{5}{12} *\frac{4}{11} *\frac{3}{10} *\frac{2}{9} *\frac{1}{8} =\frac{1}{792}

Raj’s bathtub is clogged and is draining at a rate of 1. 5 gallons of water per minute. The table shows that the amount of water
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

Draining rate is at 1.5 gallons per minute

That would be y = 1.5g / x.

From the function or the equation, here is the answer.

The range would be all real numbers such that 0 ≤ y ≤ 40.

Use complete sentences to describe the transformation that maps ABCD onto its image.
Lapatulllka [165]

General Idea:

When a point or figure on a coordinate plane is moved by sliding it to the right or left or up or down, the movement is called a translation.

Say a point P(x, y) moves up or down ' k ' units, then we can represent that transformation by adding or subtracting respectively 'k' unit to the y-coordinate of the point P.

In the same way if P(x, y) moves right or left ' h ' units, then we can represent that transformation by adding or subtracting respectively 'h' units to the x-coordinate.

P(x, y) becomes P'(x\pm h, y\pm k). We need to use ' + ' sign for 'up' or 'right' translation and use ' - ' sign for ' down' or 'left' translation.

Applying the concept:

The point A of Pre-image is (0, 0). And the point A' of image after translation is (5, 2). We can notice that all the points from the pre-image moves 'UP' 2 units and 'RIGHT' 5 units.

Conclusion:

The transformation that maps ABCD onto its image is translation given by (x + 5, y + 2),

In other words, we can say ABCD is translated 5 units RIGHT and 2 units UP to get to A'B'C'D'.

Coordinates, gradient and tangent work (see image).
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

a) P(x,2x^2-5),\ Q(x+h,2(x+h)^2-5)

b) 4x+2h

c) 4x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the curve

y=2x^2-5

a) If the x-coordinate of P is x, then the y-coordinate is 2x^2-5, so point P has coordinates (x,2x^2-5)

If the x-coordinate of Q is x+h, then the y-coordinate is 2(x+h)^2-5 so point Q has coordinates (x+h,2(x+h)^2-5)

b) The gradient of the secant RQ is

\dfrac{y_Q-y_P}{x_Q-x_P}\\ \\=\dfrac{(2(x+h)^2-5)-(2x^2-5)}{(x+h)-x}\\ \\=\dfrac{2(x+h)^2-5-x^2+5}{x+h-x}\\ \\=\dfrac{2(x+h)^2-2x^2}{h}\\ \\=\dfrac{2x^2+4xh+2h^2-2x^2}{h}\\ \\=\dfrac{4xh+2h^2}{h}\\ \\=4x+2h

c) If h\rightarrow 0, then the gradient 4x+2h\rightarrow 4x
