The law firm of Dewey, Cheetham, and Howe handled 18 personal injury cases this past year. This was 9/7 of the cases handled by the rival firm of Gypsum-Goode. How many personal injury cases were handled by Gypsum-Goode this year?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

14 cases

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of personal injury cases this year by Gypsum Goode

x* 9/7 = 18

Multiply each side by 7/9

x * 9/7 *7/9 = 18 * 7/9

x = 14

People at a local festival were asked if their favorite dessert was cake or pie. The probability of each result are as follows: • Probability of 0.42 that people liked pie • Probability of 0.90 that people liked cake or pie • Probability of 0.12 that people liked both cake and pie Use a Venn Diagram to support your calculations for the following questions:

a) Determine the probability that a person will like cake.

B) Determine the probability that a person at the festival does not like either of these two desserts.

C) Are the event liking cake and liking pie mutually exclusive or non-mutually exclusive? Justify your answer.

Answers

a) The probability that a person will like cake is given as follows: 0.6 = 60%.

b) The probability that a person does not like any of the two desserts is given as follows: 0.1 = 10%.

c) The events are non-mutually exclusive, as the probability of liking both is different of zero.

What is a Venn probability?

In a Venn probability, two events are related with each other, as are their probabilities.

The "or probability" is given by:

[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]

The events for this problem are given as follows:

Event A: person likes pie.Event B: person likes cake.

The probabilities for this problem are given as follows:

P(A or B) = 0.9, P(A) = 0.42, P(A and B) = 0.12.

Hence the probability that a person likes cake is given as follows:

0.9 = 0.42 + P(B) - 0.12

0.3 + P(B) = 0.9

P(B) = 0.6.

Probability of 0.90 that people liked cake or pie, hence the probability that a person likes neither is of:

1 - 0.9 = 0.1 = 10%.

(or means at least one of them, and neither is complementary to at least one).

As P(A and B) = 0.12 is different of zero, the events are non-mutually exclusive.

The altitude of the hypotenuse of a right triangle divides the hypotenuse into two segments. If the ratio of lengths of the segments is 1:9 and the length of the altitude is 6 meters, find the lengths of the two segments?

Answers

Answer:

2 m18 m

Step-by-step explanation:

You want the lengths of the segments of the hypotenuse of a right triangle when an altitude of 6 m divides the hypotenuse into parts with the ratio 1:9.

Geometric mean

The altitude to the hypotenuse of a right triangle is the geometric mean of the parts it divides the hypotenuse into. If the shorter part is x, then the longer part is 9x, and their geometric mean is ...

  6 = √(x(9x)) = 3√x² = 3x

  x = 2 . . . . . . . divide by 3

The length of the shorter segment is 2 m; the longer one, 18 m.

Match each compound inequality on the left to the graph that represents its solution on the right.

How would you define a Line Graph?

It is a graph that depicts a line connecting many points or a line indicating the relationship between the points. The graph depicts quantitative data between two changing variables by connecting a sequence of succeeding data points with a line or curve.

With regard to the above-given graphs,

The inequalities are given as

1. 4x + 3 > 15 or —6x ≥ 12

2. —8x > —24 and —10 ≤ 2x -6

3. -29 ≤ 9x -2 < 16

Note that the way to identify the plots on the line graphs is by solving the above equations.

1) 4x + 3 > 15 or —6x ≥ 12

4x + 3 > 15 can be solved by subtracting 3 from both sides, resulting in 4x > 12. Dividing both sides by 4 gives x > 3.-6x ≥ 12, can be solved by dividing both sides by -6, resulting in x ≤ -2.

2) —8x > —24 and —10 ≤ 2x -6

To solve for x in  —8x > —24, divide both sides by -8

x > 3;

So solve for —10 ≤ 2x -6; add 6 from both sides and divide by 2

-4/2 ≤ x

-2 ≤ x  or x ≥ -2

3) -29 ≤ 9x -2 < 16

To solve this inequality, you can start by isolating the variable on one side of the inequality. To do this, you can add 2 to both sides to get:

-29 + 2 ≤ 9x < 16 + 2

-27 ≤ 9x < 18
Now divide both sides by 9 to get:

-3 ≤ x < 2

This means that x can be any number that is greater than or equal to -3 and less than 2.

Given the above results, it is correct to state that equation 1 matches option (B), equation 2 matches option (C), and equation 3 matches option (A).

Answers

The probability that the area of the triangle is at most 20 is 5/9

What is probability?

Probability is a measure of the likelihood of an event occurring. The probability formula is defined as the possibility of an event happening is equal to the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes and the total number of outcomes. Probability of event to happen P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes/Total Number of outcomes.

Given here: Right triangle XYZ has legs of length XY = 12 and YZ = 6. Point D is chosen at random within the triangle XYZ. Thus area of triangle XYZ is

1/2×12×6=36

Now if the area of the triangle is at most 20 then the required probability is = 20/36

                      =5/9

Hence, The probability that the area of the triangle is at most 20 is 5/9

An equation in mathematics is a representation of two equal variables, one on each side of a "equals" sign. To tackle common issues, equations can be used. We commonly seek pre algebra help to overcome obstacles in real life. Math fundamentals are covered in pre-algebra lessons.

Here,

the formula is written as x3 -10x = 100.

We continue testing for the value of x that is valid for x3 -10x = 100 via trial and error.

We've made multiple tries and have:

x = 5.4 (roughly) (approximately)

In x3 -10x = 100, replace x with 5.4.

5.4^3 -10 * 5.4 = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the 3rd side length from 2 side length chosen. So let’s pick 8 meters and 11 meters, to find the third side length we use the Pythagorean theorem: c^2 = a^2 + b^2

c = 11^2 + 8^2 = 121 + 64 = 185 = 13.6

13.6 isn’t one of the answers so we can’t pick 11 & 8. Let’s try 11 & 15:

c = 15^2 + 11^2 = 225 + 121 = 346 = 18.6

18.6 isn’t one of the answers either. Let’s try 15 & 60:

c = 60^2 + 15^2 = 3600 + 225 = 3825 = 61.85

61.85 might be it but let’s try one more just in case:

c = 60^2 + 61^2 = 3600 + 3721 = 7321 = 85.6

Nope! That means 15, 60, and 61 are the answer. I hope this is correct!

Solve systems by elimination step by step
2x + y = 180
x - y = 30

Answers

The value of x=70 and y=40

The elimination method is the process of eliminating one of the variables in the system of linear equations using the addition or subtraction methods in conjunction with the multiplication or division of coefficients of the variables.

Here, 2x+y=180

x-y= 30

Here, the coefficient of y in these two equations are equal and have opposite signs. so,

                             2x+y= 180

                             x-y= 30

     Now adding equation 1 and equation 2

We get,

               3x= 210

                  x= 210/3

                  x= 70

Now, to find y:

Putting the value of x in equation 2

          x-y= 30

         70-y= 30

          y= 70-30

           y= 40

so, the value of x and y are 70 and 40

Peter is making an "X marks the spot" flag for a treasure hunt. The flag is made of a square white flag with sides
of 12 centimeters. He will make the "X" by stretching red ribbon diagonally from corner to corner.
How many centimeters of ribbon will Peter need to make the "X"?
Round your answer to the nearest centimeter.

Answers

Answer:

34 centimetres

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the flag is made of a square white flags, then all its sides are equal in length. a diagonal of a square would divide it into two equal triangle.

Let the length of the diagonal be represented by t, such that;

[tex]/hyp/^{2}[/tex] = [tex]/adj 1/^{2}[/tex] + [tex]/adj 2/^{2}[/tex]

[tex]t^{2}[/tex]  = [tex](12)^{2}[/tex] + [tex](12)^{2}[/tex]

           = 144 + 144

[tex]t^{2}[/tex]  = 288

t = [tex]\sqrt{288}[/tex]

t = 16.9706

t = 17 centimetres

The length of a diagonal of the flag is 17 centimetres.

So that,

The centimetres of ribbon required to make the "X" = 2 x diagonal

                                                            = 2 x 17

                                                            = 34

The centimetres of ribbon required to make the "X" is 34 centimetres.

Answer:

  (a, b, c) = (-3, -2, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to solve the system of 3 equations in 3 variables shown in the attached figure.

Solution

The easiest solution is one provided by a suitable calculator (attached). It tells you ...

a = -3b = -2c = -4

The "work" is entering the problem into the calculator.

Ad hoc

We notice the sum of 'a' coefficients is zero, so we can add the three equations to get ...

  (4a +5b -6c) +(-3a -2b +7c) +(-a +4b +2c) = (2) +(-15) +(-13)

  7b +3c = -26 . . . . . simplify

Multiplying the third equation by 4 and adding that to the first equation gives ...

  4(-a +4b +2c) +(4a +5b -6c) = 4(-13) +(2)

  21b +2c = -50 . . . . . simplify

Now, we have two equations in two unknowns.

Multiplying the first equation above by 3 and subtracting this last equation eliminates the b term to give ...

  3(7b +3c) -(21b +2c) = 3(-26) -(-50)

  7c = -28 . . . . . simplify

  c = -4 . . . . . . . divide by 7

Using this in the first "ad hoc" equation, we can find b:

  7b +3(-4) = -26

  7b = -14 . . . . . . . . add 12

  b = -2 . . . . . . . . divide by 7

And the values of b and c can go into the last of the original equations to give ...

  -a +4(-2) +2(-4) = -13

  -a = 3 . . . . . add 16

  a = -3 . . . . . multiply by -1

The solution is (a, b, c) = (-3, -2, -4).

__

Additional comment

The given solution is "ad hoc" because we decide how we're going to approach the solution based on the coefficients we see. Here, we are solving by "elimination," performing as little arithmetic as possible.

The third equation suggests we could make a substitution for 'a':

  a = 4b +2c +13

That substitution would give a different set of equations in 'b' and 'c' than the ones shown above.

The second attachment shows a graphical solution to the system. It shows (a, b, c) = (-3, -2, -4). The graphing program requires the use of x and y instead of 'a' and 'b' for the variables.

Four methods of solving the system have been described. Take your pick. The calculator solution was the easiest, requiring each number to be entered once.

What is a square?

A square is a closed, two-dimensional shape that has four equal sides and four vertices. Parallel to one another are its opposing sides. A square is also equivalent to an equal-length and-width rectangle. A square is a regular quadrilateral with four equal-length sides and four equal-length angles. The square's angles are 90 degrees or at right angles. In addition, the square's diagonals are equally spaced and split at a 90-degree angle. A square is a two-dimensional shape with four equal-length sides. A square's opposing sides are parallel to one another, and its four internal angles are all right angles.

given,

The total amount of wood.

= 4 x 65.5

= 262 inches.

Frame:

Side = 5.25 inches

The perimeter of the frame.

= 4 x 5.25

= 21 inches

Now,

Sandbox:

The wood used for the sandbox.

= 11 x 21

= 231 inches

The remaining wood.

= 262 - (21 + 231)

= 262 - 252

= 10 inches

The wood left over after making the frame of sides 5 .25 inches and the sandbox is 10 inches.
