a box contains 3 white balls and 4 black balls. a ball is drawn at random the color is recorded and then the ball is put back in the box. Then a second ball is drawn at random from the same box. find the probability of the event that at least one of the balls is white
The box has 3 white balls and 4 black balls.
Total number of balls = 3 + 4 = 7
First draw:
The probability of getting a white ball is given by
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(white)=\frac{\text{number of white balls}}{total\text{ number of balls}} \\ P(white)=\frac{3}{7} \end{gathered}[/tex]Second draw:
Notice that after the first draw the ball is put back in the box.
The probability of getting a white ball is given by
[tex]P(white)=\frac{3}{7}[/tex]At least one of the balls is white means that one white ball or two white balls.
[tex]P(x\ge1)\; =P(x=1)+P(x=2)_{}[/tex]We have already found the probability of getting one white ball that is P(x=1) = 3/7
The probability of getting two white balls is
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(two\; white)=P(white)\times P(white) \\ P(two\; white)=\frac{3}{7}\times\frac{3}{7}=\frac{9}{49} \end{gathered}[/tex]Finally, the probability of at least one white ball is
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(x\ge1)\; =P(x=1)+P(x=2)_{} \\ P(x\ge1)\; =\frac{3}{7}+\frac{9}{49} \\ P(x\ge1)\; =\frac{30}{49} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the probability of the event that at least one of the balls is white is 30/49
Use y = 3x2 + 18x - 2 to answer the following question(1, 19) is a point on the graph. What point is the reflection of (1, 19) across the axis of symmetry of the parabola?
Since y is a parabolla, there will be two values for y = 19. We already know that x = 1 is one value, to find the other, we can substitute y = 19 on the equation and solve for x to get the following:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 19=3x^2+18x-2 \\ \Rightarrow3x^2+18x-2-19=0 \\ \Rightarrow3x^2+18x-21=0 \\ \Rightarrow3(x^2+6x-7)=0 \\ \Rightarrow3(x-1)(x+7)=0 \end{gathered}[/tex]the solutions of the equation are x = 1 and x = -7. Since we already have that (1,19) is a point on the graph, then we have that the other point is (-7,19)
The nutty professor sells cashews for $6.20 per pound and Brazil nuts for $4.30 per pound. How much of each type should be used to make a 32 pound mixture that sells for $5.37 per pound?
Let's call C the weight of the Cashews and B the weight of the Brazil nuts.
Since the professor wants to sel a 32 pound mixture, we have the following equation:
[tex]C+B=32.[/tex]Now, since the price of the mixture will be $5.37 per pound, this means the price of the whole mixture will be
[tex]32\cdot5.37=171.84.[/tex]This leads us to the followin equation:
[tex]6.20C+4.30B=171.84.[/tex]Now we have a system of equations:
[tex]C+B=32[/tex][tex]6.20C+4.30B=171.84.[/tex]To solve it, let's isolate one of the variables in the first equation by subtracting B from both sides of it:
[tex]C=32-B\text{.}[/tex]Now, let's use this value of C in the second equation:
[tex]6.20(32-B)+4.30B=171.84,[/tex][tex]198.4-6.20B+4.30B=171.84,[/tex][tex]198.4-1.9B=171.84.[/tex]To solve this equation, let's subtract 198.4 from both sides of it:
[tex]-1.9B=-26.56.[/tex]Then, let's divide both sides by -1.9:
[tex]B\approx13.98.[/tex]Using this value of B in the first equation will give us:
[tex]C=32-13.98=18.02.[/tex]These would be the values of B and C round to two decimals. If we want, we can also write them as integer numbers. so the mix would need to have 18 pounds of cashews and 14 pounds of Brazil nuts.

The given function is increasing over these following intervals:
B. -2 ≤ x ≤ -1.
C. 0 < x < 1.
Where to find where a function is increasing, from it's graph?Considering the graph of the function, we get that a function f(x) is increasing when it is "moving northeast", that is, to the right and up on the graph, meaning that when x increases, y increases.Conversely, we get that a function f(x) is decreasing when it is "moving southeast", that is, to the right and down the graph, meaning that when x increases, y decreases.Considering the given definitions on the bullet points above, the behavior of the function can be separated as follows:
Increasing on -2.5 ≤ x ≤ 2.5.Decreasing on all other intervals except the one above.Items B and C have subsets of the interval -2.5 ≤ x ≤ 2.5, hence the function is increasing on those intervals, and they are the correct options for this problem.

What values in Manu’s list of rational roots should he try in synthetic division in light of these findings?
The values in Manu’s list of rational roots he should try in the synthetic division, in light of these findings is
"Manu should try first +1/4,+1/2 and +1."
This is further explained below.
What is the synthetic division?Generally, Because the lower and higher bonds are located between -6 and 1, Manu should have only analyzed the potential rational zeros that fall between those two numbers.
A lower bond indicates that the feasible rational zero cannot be lower than -6, and therefore the higher number that may be achieved cannot be more than 1.
In this manner, Manu will get an opportunity to test. This approach of rationalization based on bonds aims to reduce the number of potential solutions.
Therefore, if Manu discovers through the synthetic division that the possible roots are +1/4,+1/2,+1,+5/4,+2,+5/2,+4,+5,+10,+20, then he should only consider those inside the intervals marked by the lower and upper bounds, which are +1/4,+1/2,+1, because the rest is greater than 1. This is because the rest of the possible roots are higher than 1.

The value of (x) that satisfy the equation → - 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33) is x = - 33.
What is Equation?
An equation is a mathematical statement with an 'equal to' symbol between two expressions that have equal values.
Given is the following equation -
- 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33)
The given equation is -
- 3 - 23x = - 14(x - 21) - 15(x + 33)
Simplifying for (x), we get -
- 3 - 23x = - 14x + 294 - 15x - 495
- 23x + 14x + 15x = 3 + 294 - 495
6x = - 198

we need to mix 10 cups of yellow color with 2 cups of blue.
we need to mix 15 cups of yellow color with 3 cups of blue.
So, here we can see a relationship between the two colors, blue (x) and green(y)
Let k be the constant of proportionality, then, we have :
10 = k *2
k =[tex]\frac{10}{2} = 5[/tex]
Hence, For one cup of blue paint, we need 5 cups of yellow paint to make the same shade of green.
And the equation of the same is y =kx, that is y =5x....equation(1)
To make new pair of numbers that would make the same shade of green.
We can use the equation 1,
for x = 4, we need y = 20
foe x =5, we need y = 25

Question 1. Find the center and radius of the circunscribed circle.
In order to find the center of the circunscribed circle, we can use the midpoint theorem because the center point is in the middle of any two vertices
that is, if we take points (9,23) and (8,16) the midpoint C is given as
[tex]C=(\frac{8+9}{2},\frac{16+23}{2})[/tex]which gives
[tex]C=(8.5,19.5)[/tex]So the center of the circle is the point (8.5,19.5)
On the other hand, the radius is equal to the distance from any vertex to the center. If we take the vertex (8,16), we get
[tex]r=\sqrt[]{(8.5-8)^2+(19.5-16)^2}[/tex]which gives
[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\sqrt[]{0.5^2+3.5^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{0.25+12.25} \\ r=\sqrt[]{12.5} \\ r=3.5355 \end{gathered}[/tex]so, the radius measure 3.54 units.
Now, lets prove that the answer are correct. In order to do that, we can choose the other vertices and apply the same procedure as above.
So the vertices are (5,20) and (12,19). Again, the center is the midpoint between these points and is given as
[tex]\begin{gathered} C=(\frac{5+12}{2},\frac{20+19}{2}) \\ C=(\frac{17}{2},\frac{39}{2}) \\ C=(8.5,19.5) \end{gathered}[/tex]which is the same center as above.
Now, the distance from the center to vertec (5,20) is
[tex]\begin{gathered} r=\sqrt[]{(8.5-5)^2+(20-19.5)^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{3.5^2+0.5^2} \\ r=\sqrt[]{12.25+0.25} \\ r=\sqrt[]{12.5} \\ r=3.5355 \end{gathered}[/tex]which is the same radius obtained above. Then, the answers are correct.
