<span>The outcome = probability of choosing exactly 2, 3, 4, or 5 passing plays. The probability of selecting exactly two passing plays is given by: (8C2)*(9*8)* (15*14*13*12*11*10) /(26*28*.....19) where: 8C2 represents the combinations of choosing two from 8 and probability that the first passing play is selected = 9/26 probability that the second passing play is chosen = 10/25, and so forth you can similarly calculate the other three scenarios and sum them to find the total probability.</span>

For $\fbox{\begin \\\math{x}=6\\\end{minispace}}$ the function $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ and $g(x)=-x+6$ both yield the same result.

Detailed breakdown:

The functions involved are

$f(x)=-x^{2}+4x+12$

$g(x)=-x+6$

Step 1:

Insert $x=1$ in $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to find the value of $f(1)$ .

$f(1)=-1^{2} +4(1)+12\\f(1)=-1+4+12\\f(1)=15$

Insert $x=1$ in $g(x)=-x+6$ to find the value of $g(1)$ .

$g(1)=-1+6\\g(1)=5$

Step 2:

Insert $x=2$ in $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to obtain the value of $f(2)$ .

$f(2)=-2^{2} +4(2)+12\\f(2)=-4+8+12\\f(2)=16$

Substitute $x=2$ into $g(x)=-x+6$ to find the value of $g(2)$ .

$g(2)=-2+6\\g(2)=4$

Step 3:

Replace $x=3$ in $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to find the value of $f(3)$ .

$f(3)=-3^{2} +4(3)+12\\f(3)=-9+12+12\\f(3)=15$

Also, replace $x=3$ in $g(x)=-x+6$ to find the value of $g(3)$ .

$g(3)=-3+6\\g(3)=3$

Step 4:

Insert $x=4$ in $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to find the value of $f(4)$ .

$f(4)=-4^{2} +4(4)+12\\f(4)=-16+16+12\\f(4)=12$

Also, replace $x=4$ in $g(x)=-x+6$ to obtain the value of $g(4)$ .

$g(4)=-4+6\\g(4)=2$

Step 5:

Insert $x=5$ in $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to obtain the value of $f(5)$ .

$f(5)=-5^{2} +4(5)+12\\f(5)=-25+20+12\\f(5)=7$

Replace $x=5$ in $g(x)=-x+6$ to find the value of $g(5)$ .

$g(5)=-5+6\\g(5)=1$

Step 6:

Insert $x=6$ into $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ to find the value of $f(6)$ .

$f(6)=-6^{2} +4(6)+12\\f(6)=-36+24+12\\f(6)=0$

Also, substitute $x=6$ in $g(x)=-x+6$ to obtain the value of $g(6)$ .

$g(6)=-6+6\\g(6)=0$

Step 7:

According to the provided condition $f(x)=g(x)$ .

(a). Insert $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ and $g(x)=-x+6$ into the previously mentioned equation.

$-x^{2} +4x+12=-x+6$

(b). Multiply through by $-1$ on both sides.

$x^{2} -4x-12=x-6$

(c). Move the term $x-6$ to the left side of the equation.

$x^{2} -4x-12-x+6=0\\x^{2} -5x-6=0$

(d). Divide the middle term so that its sum equals 5 and the product equals 6.

$x^{2} -(6-1)x-6=0\\x^{2} -6x+x-6=0\\x(x-6)+1(x-6)=0\\(x+1)(x-6)=0\\x=-1,6$

From the analysis above, it is noted that for $x=6$ both functions $f(x)$ and $g(x)$ yield the same outcome.

Using a direct approach:

$f(x)=g(x)\\\Leftrightarrow-x^{2} +4x+12=-x+6\\\Leftrightarrow-x^{2} +4x+12+x-6=0\\\Leftrightarrow-x^{2} +5x+6=0\\\Leftrightarrow-x^{2} +6x-x+6=0\\\Leftrightarrow x^{2} -6x+x-6=0\\\Leftrightarrow x(x-6)+1(x-6)=0\\\Leftrightarrow(x+1)(x-6)=0\\\Leftrightarrow x=6,-1$

The table representing function $f(x)=-x^{2} +4x+12$ and $g(x)=-x+6$ is included below.

max invests $6000 in a savings account for 3 years. the account pays compound interest at a rate of 1.5% per year for the first

AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

2.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest formula can be expressed as:

$A=P(1+I)^n\\\\P-Principal \\A-amount\\i-compound \ interest \ rate$

Starting with a Principal amount of $6000 and applying an interest rate of 1.5% for the first two years:

$A=P(1+i)^n\\\\A_2=6000(1+0.015)^2\\\\A_2=6181.35$

We calculate compound interest $A_2$ for one year at rate i, resulting in $6311.16:

$A=P(1+i)^n, n=1, i=i, P=6181.35, A=6311.16\\\\6311.16=6181.35(1+i)^1\\\\\frac{6311.16}{6181.35}=(1+i)\\\\i=\frac{6311.16}{6181.35}-1\\\\i=0.02100$

Thus, the interest rate for the third year is 2.1%

lawyer [12517]

Response:

Maureen's null hypothesis is, H₀: p₁ ≥ p₂.

Detailed explanation:

Maureen McIlvoy, as the owner and CEO of a mail-order business specializing in windsurfing gear, is scrutinizing the order fulfillment processes in her warehouses. Her objective is to achieve a 100% shipment rate of orders within 24 hours. Upon examining her warehouse operations, she discovers that both the East coast and West coast warehouses have not met this goal, although the East Coast warehouse has consistently outperformed its counterpart.

To verify this finding, Maureen’s team randomly sampled 200 orders from the West Coast warehouse (population 1) and 400 from the East Coast warehouse (population 2).

Of the sampled 200 orders from the West Coast warehouse, 190 were delivered within the specified time. In contrast, 372 out of 400 orders from the East Coast warehouse were processed within 24 hours.

The hypotheses can be formulated as followed:

H₀: The proportion of timely shipments from the East Coast does not exceed that from the West Coast warehouse, thus, p₁ ≥ p₂.

Hₐ: The proportion of timely shipments from the East Coast warehouse is indeed greater than that from the West Coast warehouse, stated as p₁ < p₂.

Thus, Maureen's null hypothesis becomes, H₀: p₁ ≥ p₂.

Angelica is working with function machines. She has the two machines at shown at the right. She wants to put them in order so th

Leona [12618]

To achieve the desired output, first use the machine with the function y = x^2 - 6, followed by the machine that computes y = sqrt(x-5). This way, when you input 6, the output from the first machine is calculated as x = 6, yielding y = 6^2 - 6, resulting in 30 as the input for the second machine. The second machine then processes this to provide the final output of sqrt(30 - 5), which equals sqrt(25) = 5. Alternatively, to obtain a negative final output, you should first utilize the machine with the function y = sqrt(x-5). Assuming you start with the value x = 9, the first machine computes this to sqrt(9-5), which is sqrt(4) = 2. Then, the second machine converts y to 2^2 - 6, leading to a result of 4 - 6 = -2.
