The total letters present in the entire world (MATH) = 4

the count of favorable results = 10

therefore, the chance of selecting the letters (MATH) is 2/5

The word "MATHCOUNTS" contains 10 letters.

Meanwhile, "MATH" consists of 4 letters.

Thus, the chance of drawing the letters "M" "A" "T" "H" comes out to be 4/10, which simplifies to 2/5.

However, the letters must be in a specific sequence...

You can rearrange the 4 letters in 32 different ways, but there is just 1 arrangement that spells "MATH"

Consequently, the probability of achieving 1/32 of 2/5 equals 2/160 or 1/80

Leona [9271]
$5,000.00 invested for a period of 6 years doubles to $10,000.00.
What is the interest rate?

You will need to apply logarithms:
<span>log(1 + rate) = {log(total) - log(Principal)} ÷ Years
</span>log(1 + rate) = <span>{log(10,000) - log(5,000)} ÷ 6
</span>log(1 + rate) = (4 - 3.6989700043) / 6
log(1 + rate) = <span> <span> <span> 0.301029957 / 6
</span></span></span>log(1 + rate) = <span> <span> <span> 0.0501716595 </span> </span> </span>
Next, raise 10 to the power of <span> <span> <span> 0.0501716595 </span> </span> </span> which results in
<span> <span> <span> 1.1224620317 </span> </span> </span>
This value represents 1 plus the interest rate, so the interest rate is
0.1224620317 or 12.24620317 percent.
This concludes Part ONE.
Now, onto Part TWO.

How many years does it take for $300 to increase to $9,600 at an annual rate of <span>12.24620317%?
You will use the following formula:
</span>(More logarithms involved).
Years = {log(total) - log(Principal)} ÷ log(1 + rate)
Years = {log(9,600) - log(300)} / log(<span>1.1224620317)
</span>Years = (3.982271233 - 2.4771212547) / 0.050171659518
<span><span><span>Years = 1.5051499783 /  </span> </span> </span>.050171659518
Years = 30

It is known that Ray AP bisects angle CAT. If m&lt;CAT = 5x+17 and m&lt;PAT = 3x-4, then determine the value of x.​
tester [8842]

Answer:

x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that ray AP divides angle CAT, it implies that

\angle CAT=\angle CAP+\angle PAT

Also, \angle CAP = \angle PAT

This leads to, \angle CAT=2\angle PAT

As stated,

\angle CAT = 5x+17 \ \text{and}\ \text{PAT}=3x-4

Consequently,

5x+17=2(3x-4)\\\\5x+17=6x-8

Grouping similar terms together,

5x-6x=-8-17\\\\-x=-25\\\\x=25

Thus, x is 25.

The graphs below have the same shape. What is the equation of the blue graph?
AnnZ [9104]

Answer: OPTION B

Step-by-step explanation:

The red graph depicts the fundamental form of a quadratic function (the most basic version), with its vertex located at the origin.

The function g(x) results from moving the parent function 2 units to the right and 1 unit upwards.

As a consequence, considering this, the transformation takes the following structure:

g(x)=(x-h)^2+k

The horizontal displacement is dictated by the value of h, while the vertical shift is determined by k.

<pThus, the resulting function is:

g(x)=(x-2)^2+1
