I hope choices must be given in the problem.

I am showing the method to find the equivalent equation of the above equation. You can match with your given choices.

First step is to expand the first term. So,

(x-4)² = (x - 4)(x - 4) Since a²= a*a

= x² - 4x - 4x + 4 * 4 By multiplying.

= x² -8x + 16 Combine the like terms.

So, (x - 4)² - (x -4) - 6

= x² - 8x + 16 - x + 4 - 6

= x² - 9x + 14 Combine the like terms.

So, equivalent equation of the above equation is x² - 9x + 14 = 0.

What is the recursive rule for an=4n−1? a1=4;an=an−1−1 a1=3;an=an−1+4 a1=−1;an=an−1+4 a1=3;an=an−1−1
navik [9.2K]
Plug in n = 1 into the nth term formula
a(n) = 4n-1
a(1) = 4*1-1
a(1) = 3
So the first term is 3

The second term will be 7 because we add on 4 each time, as indicated by the slope of 4. This is also known as the common difference.

So the nth term is found by adding 4 to the (n-1)st term, in other words,
a(n) = a(n-1)+4

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

In summary, the answer is 
a1=3; an=an-1+4
which is choice B

Soup can be packaged in two different containers: a box and a cylinder. The dimensions of the box are 7.5 cm by 4.7 cm by 14.5 c
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer: Cylinder uses less material to make.

Box holds more soup then cylinder.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total surface area of cuboidal box =2(lw+wh+lh), l= length, w=width, h=height

Total surface area of cylinder = 2\pi r(r+h)  where r= radius and h is height.

Given , Dimension of box : 7.5 cm by 4.7 cm by 14.5 cm

Dimension of cylinder : radius of 3.3 cm and a height of 10 cm.

Total surface area of box =2((7.5)(4.7)+(4.7)(14.5)+(7.5)(147.5)) sq. cm

= 2(1209.65)

=2419.3 sq. cm

Total surface area of cylinder = 2(3.14)(3.3)(3.3+10)=275.63\ \text{ sq. cm}

<em>[π=3.14]</em>

(Total surface area of cylinder)<(Total surface area of box )

So, cylinder uses less material to make.

Volume of box = l x w x h

= (7.5)(4.7)(14.5) = 511.13 cubic cm

Volume of cylinder = \pi r^2h

=(3.14)(3.3)^2(10)

= 341.946 cubic cm

As (Volume of box) > (Volume of cylinder )

So, Box holds more soup then cylinder.

Problem 2.2.4 Your Starburst candy has 12 pieces, three pieces of each of four flavors: berry, lemon, orange, and cherry, arrang
kkurt [141]

Answer:

a) P=0

b) P=0.164

c) P=0.145

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 12 pieces, with 3 of each of the 4 flavors.

You draw the first 4 pieces.

a) The probability of getting all of the same flavor is 0, because there are only 3 pieces of each flavor. Once you get the 3 of the same flavor, there are only the other flavors remaining.

b) The probability of all 4 being from different flavor can be calculated as the multiplication of 4 probabilities.

The first probability is for the first draw, and has a value of 1, as any flavor will be ok.

The second probability corresponds to drawing the second candy and getting a different flavor. There are 2 pieces of the flavor from draw 1, and 9 from the other flavors, so this probability is 9/(9+2)=9/11≈0.82.

The third probability is getting in the third draw a different flavor from the previos two draws. We have left 10 candys and 4 are from the flavor we already picked. Then the third probabilty is 6/10=0.6.

The fourth probability is getting the last flavor. There are 9 candies left and only 3 are of the flavor that hasn't been picked yet. Then, the probability is 3/9=0.33.

Then, the probabilty of picking the 4 from different flavors is:

P=1\cdot\dfrac{9}{11}\cdot\dfrac{6}{10}\cdot\dfrac{3}{9}=\dfrac{162}{990}\approx0.164

c) We can repeat the method for the previous probabilty.

The first draw has a probability of 1 because any flavor is ok.

In the second draw, we may get the same flavor, with probability 2/11, or we can get a second flavor with probability 9/11. These two branches are ok.

For the third draw, if we have gotten 2 of the same flavor (P=2/11), we have to get a different flavor (we can not have 3 of the same flavor). This happen with probability 9/10.

If we have gotten two diffente flavors, there are left 4 candies of the picked flavors in the remaining 10 candies, so we have a probabilty of 4/10.

For the fourth draw, independently of the three draws, there are only 2 candies left that satisfy the condition, so we have a probability of 2/9.

For the first path, where we pick 2 candies of the same flavor first and 2 candies of the same flavor last, we have two versions, one for each flavor, so we multiply this probability by a factor of 2.

We have then the probabilty as:

P=2\cdot\left(1\cdot\dfrac{2}{11}\right)\cdot\left(\dfrac{9}{10}\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}\right)+\left(1\cdot\dfrac{9}{11}\cdot\dfrac{4}{10}\cdot\dfrac{2}{9}\right)\\\\\\P=2\cdot\dfrac{36}{990}+\dfrac{72}{990}=\dfrac{144}{990}\approx0.145
