A student is initially outside. He is given the choice with a probability of 0.4 of going to the playground, 0.3 of shopping in the mall and 0.3 of returning home. If he is in the playground, he takes 2 hrs of time and then decides to stay in the playground again or return back home. (he can continue to decide to stay in playground like a recursive process) Similarly, If he is in the mall, he takes 3 hrs of time and then decides to stay in the mall again or return back home. (he can continue to decide to stay in mall like a recursive process) For all cases, it takes 1 hr to return home. what is the expected hours the student was outside home?
Based on the probability values, it will take the student 2 hours to stay outside the home
How to determine the expected value of the student?The given parameters are:
Probabilities
P(1) = 0.4
P(2) = 0.3
P(3) = 0.3
Time
Time 1 = 2 hours
Time 2 = 3 hours
Time 3 = 1 hour
When the above are represented on a table, we have the following table of values
Time (x) | 2 3 1
Probability (P(x)) | 0.4 0.3 0.3
The expected value of the student is then calculated as
E(x) = ∑ x * P(x)
Substitute the known values in the above equation
E(x) = 2 * 0.4 + 3 * 0.3 + 1 * 0.3
Evaluate the products
E(x) = 0.8 + 0.9 + 0.3
Evaluate the sum
E(x) = 2
Hence, the expected value is 2

A triangle has side lengths measuring 10m, 24m, and 26m. Explain how you use Pythagorean Theorem to determine whether or not the triangle is a right triangle.
Hello there. To solve this question, we'll have to remember some properties about the pythagorean theorem and right triangles.
Given a triangle with side lengths 10 m, 24 m and 26 m, we have to determine whether this is a right triangle or not.
First, let's assume these are the sides lengths of a right triangle, as follows:
Notice in this case we choose the largest side to be the hypotenuse. We know that the largest side of a triangle has to be less than the sum of the legs and any combination would do, but since we'll apply the Pythagorean theorem, we already know that the hypotenuse has to be the largest side of the triangle.
For a right triangle with legs a, b and hypotenuse c, the Pythagorean theorem says that the sum of the squares of the legs is equal to the square of the hypotenuse, that is
[tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]Hence we plug a = 10, b = 24 and c = 26.
We have to see if this equality will hold for the values;
[tex]10^2+24^2=26^2[/tex]On the right hand side, square the number
[tex]676[/tex]On the left hand side, square and add the numbers
[tex]100+576=676[/tex]Notice we got the same answer, then we say that these values satisfy the Pythagorean theorem.
Therefore, this is a right triangle.

Let f(x)=(x−7)(x+6)(x−5). Find the y-intercept(s), the x-intercept(s), the values of x where f(x)>0, and the values of x where f(x)<0. Do not sketch the graph.
1. Find the y-intercept(s). List your answers as points in the form (a,b)
2.Find the x-intercept(s). List your answers as points in the form (a,b)
3. What are the values of x where f(x)>0?

the recommended amount of meat to serve 1 and 1/2 dozzen people is 4 and 1/2 pounds. how many pounds of meat are recommended to feed 1 dozzen people? how many pounds are recommended to feed 4 people? and how many pounds are recommended to feed 1 person
First, 1 dozen is 12 units, so
[tex]1\frac{1}{2}\text{ dozen people }=\text{ 12 people + 6 people = 18 people}[/tex]Now, to solve the exercise you can use the rule of three. So, you have
*How many pounds of meat are recommended to feed 1 dozen people?
[tex]\begin{gathered} 18\text{ people}\rightarrow4.5\text{ pounds} \\ 12\text{ people}\rightarrow x\text{ pounds} \\ x=\frac{12\text{ people }\ast\text{ 4.5 pounds}}{18\text{ people}} \\ x=\frac{54}{18}\text{ pounds} \\ x=3\text{ pounds} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, 3 pounds of meat is recommended to feed a dozen people.
*How many pounds are recommended to feed 4 people?
[tex]\begin{gathered} 18\text{ people}\rightarrow4.5\text{ pounds} \\ 4\text{ people}\rightarrow x\text{ pounds} \\ x=\frac{4\text{ people }\ast\text{ 4.5 pounds}}{18\text{ people}} \\ x=\frac{18}{18}\text{ pounds} \\ x=1\text{ pound} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, 1 pound of meat is recommended to feed 4 people.
*How many pounds are recommended to feed 1 person
[tex]\begin{gathered} 18\text{ people}\rightarrow4.5\text{ pounds} \\ 1\text{ person}\rightarrow x\text{ pounds} \\ x=\frac{1\text{ person}\ast4.5\text{ pounds}}{18\text{ people}} \\ x=\frac{1}{4}\text{ pounds} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, 1/4 pound of meat is recommended to feed 1 person.
Find two different ways to show that one third+ one fourth is not equal to 3/7. You can use numbers words and labels sketches.
We can show that one third + one fourth is not equal to 3/7 by following two ways.
By Calculation.By Analysis. By Calculation.We are given to prove that the one third and one forth combination of any object/value does not equals to the 3/7 of that same value/object.
let's Consider we have value as 1.
∴ one third of value will be [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex]
∴ one forth of value will be [tex] \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
∴ three of seven of value will be [tex] \frac{3}{7} [/tex]
Now we can do the mathematic calculation on one third and one forth of the value.
As given we have to calculate the addition of one third and one forth of the value
∴ [tex] \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{4} [/tex]
= [tex] \frac{4}{12} + \frac{3}{12} [/tex] --(make base same )
= [tex] \frac{4\ + 3}{12}[/tex]
= [tex] \frac{7}{12}[/tex]
∴ By the calculation we clearly got that the addition of one third and one forth of the value is equal to the seven of twelve of the value.
We can also prove it by analysis as follows ;
Proof by analysis:-Consider a number say 120.
∴ 1/3 of 120 will be 40
∴ 1/4 of 120 will be 30
∴ 3/7 of 120 will be 51.42
Now Addition of 1/3 and 1/4 of 120 will be 40 + 30 = 70
Comparing it with 3/7 i.e 51.42 ≠ 70
Hence proved 1/3 + 1/4 ≠ 3/7 .

Two ropes are attached to a wagon, one horizontal to the west with a tension force of 30N, and the other east and at an angle of 30 degrees northward and a tension force of 40 N. Find the components of the net force on the cart. Show all work.
The net force on the cart is 62N
and the vertical component =36.64 N
the horizontal component= 50N
What is revolution of vector?
The process of splitting a vector into its components is called resolution of the vector. We resolve a vector into two components which are. component along the x-axis called horizontal component. component along the y-axis called vertical component
30N tension on the cart is westward which mean the vertical component will be 0 and the horizontal component will be 30N.
40N tension isN 30° E which means
the vertical component= 40 sin60=36.64N
Horizontal component= 40 cos 60= 20N
sum of vertical = 36.64N +0= 36.64N
sum of horizontal= 30N+20N= 50N
60° was used for tension 40N because the angle of vector must always lie on the horizontal axis
therefore the net force F is obtained by using Pythagoras theorem
F= √(50^2+36.64^2)
= 62N to the nearest whole number.

Answer:
y = 0.75x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Take two distinct points on the graph
Compute the slope m and y-intercept b
Equation of line in slope-intercept form is
y = mx + b
Take points (0, 2) and (4, 5)
Slope m = (5 - 2) /(4-0) = 3/4
y-intercept from the graph is 2
So y = 3/4 x + 2 =0.75x + 2
Write the linear inequalities that this graph represent in slope - intercept form
Solution
For the solid line we can select two points:
(0,2) and (1,0)
We can calculate the slope and we have:
[tex]m=\frac{0-2}{1-0}=-2[/tex]Then we can find the intercept and we got:
0= -2*1+ b
b =2
Then the equation is:
y= -2x +2
For the dashed line we can select (0,1) and (1,2) then the slope is:
[tex]m=\frac{2-1}{1-0}=1[/tex]The intercept is:
2= 1*1 +b
b=1
Then the equation is:
y= x +1
