In a horse race with four horses where ties are possible, there are a total of 15 different ways for the horses to finish, considering all possible combinations of two-way, three-way, and four-way ties.

Let's consider the different cases given by the number of ties:

No ties: In this case, all four horses finish in a unique order. The number of ways for this to happen is 4! (4 factorial) which is equal to 24.

Two-way ties: Two horses finish in a tie, while the other two horses finish separately. There are three possible ways to select the two horses that tie, which can be represented as (2, 2) in terms of the number of horses in each group. Once the two horses that tie are chosen, there are 2! (2 factorial) ways for the other two horses to finish among themselves. Therefore, there are 3 * 2! = 6 ways for this case.

Three-way tie: Three horses finish in a tie, while the remaining horse finishes separately. There are four possible ways to select the horse that finishes separately. Once that horse is chosen, there is only one way for the three tied horses to finish among themselves. Therefore, there are 4 * 1 = 4 ways for this case.

Four-way tie: All four horses finish in a tie. In this case, there is only one way for them to finish.

Adding up the possibilities from all the cases, we have 24 + 6 + 4 + 1 = 35. However, since we're accounting for ties, we need to subtract the case where there are no ties (24) to avoid counting it twice. Therefore, the final number of ways for the horses to finish is 35 - 24 = 11.

Answer:

104

Step-by-step explanation:

Natasha got 39, which is 3 parts of the total money. So you divide it by three.

39:3=13

13 corresponds to part of the total money. Richard gets 5 pieces, so you have to multiply the 13 by 5.

13*5=65

To find out how much money the two of them won together, you have to add up the shares.

13+65=104

Answer:

d;  x≥-3 and x≤-7

Step-by-step explanation:

absolute value always has two 'values', one positive and one negative

for example, |4| = 4 and -4

so for this problem, |x + 5| ≥ 2 we can find the positive values by just solving as normal:  x + 5 ≥ 2, so x ≥ -3

now we must find the values when the inequality is negative:

-|x + 5| ≥ 2

distribute the negative:

-x - 5 ≥ 2

-x ≥ 7

divide by -1 and remember to reverse the inequality symbol to get:

x ≤ -7

so the solutions exist at -3 and greater, as well as at -7 and less

Answer:

9.11

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

\(\dfrac{x}{y}=-3\)

We need to find the value of \(\dfrac{x^2}{y^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{x^2}\)

The value of \(\dfrac{y}{x}=\dfrac{-1}{3}\)

So,

\(\dfrac{x^2}{y^2}+\dfrac{y^2}{x^2}=(\dfrac{x}{y})^2+(\dfrac{y}{x})^2\\\\=(-3)^2+(\dfrac{-1}{3})^2\\\\=9+\dfrac{1}{9}\\\\=9.11\)

So, the required answer is equal to 9.11.

If we contrast the different parts, x1 = 3 2 = y1 and x2 = 4 4 = y2 are the results.

To show that preferences represented by min{x₁, x₂} satisfy monotonicity but not strong monotonicity, we need to demonstrate two things:

Preferences satisfy monotonicity: If xᵢ ≥ yᵢ for all i, then x ≽ y, and if xᵢ > yᵢ for all i, then x ≻ y.

Preferences do not satisfy strong monotonicity: There exist x and y such that xᵢ ≥ yᵢ for all i, but x ≠ y, and x ≰ y.

Let's address each of these points:

Monotonicity:

Suppose x and y are two bundles such that xᵢ ≥ yᵢ for all i. We need to show that x ≽ y and x ≻ y.

First, note that min{x₁, x₂} represents the minimum value between x₁ and x₂, and the same applies to y₁ and y₂.

Since x₁ ≥ y₁ and x₂ ≥ y₂, we can conclude that min{x₁, x₂} ≥ min{y₁, y₂}.

Therefore, x ≽ y, indicating that if all components of x are greater than or equal to the corresponding components of y, then x is weakly preferred to y.

However, if x₁ > y₁ and x₂ > y₂, then min{x₁, x₂} > min{y₁, y₂}. Hence, x ≻ y, indicating that if all components of x are strictly greater than the corresponding components of y, then x is strictly preferred to y.

Thus, preferences represented by min{x₁, x₂} satisfy monotonicity.

Strong Monotonicity:

To show that preferences represented by min{x₁, x₂} do not satisfy strong monotonicity, we need to provide an example of x and y such that xᵢ ≥ yᵢ for all i, but x ≠ y, and x ≰ y.

Consider the following bundles:

x = (3, 4)

y = (2, 4)

In this case, x₁ > y₁ and x₂ = y₂, so x ≻ y.

However,Thus, xᵢ ≥ yᵢ for all i, but x ≠ y, and x ≰ y.If we compare the individual components, x₁ = 3 ≥ 2 = y₁ and x₂ = 4 ≥ 4 = y₂.

Therefore, preferences represented by min{x₁, x₂} satisfy monotonicity but not strong monotonicity.

The length of the arc of the curve from point P to point Q. y = 1/2 x^2, P (−7, 49/2) , Q (7, 49/2) is (50)7 + 1/2 in (√50 + 7/√50 - 7).

The core of calculus in mathematics is the concept of functions. The unique types of relations are the ones with functions. Mathematical functions are represented as a rule that, for each input x, produces a distinct result. Mathematicians refer to a function as being mapped or transformed. Typically, letters like f, g, and h are used to indicate these functions. The collection of all the values that the function is capable of accepting is referred to as the domain. The entire set of values that the associated function's output produces is known as the range. A function's co-domain is the collection of values that could be used as its outputs. Let's explore the world of arithmetic functions.

Given

Function

y = x²/2

Differentiate with respect to x

dy/dx

= d/ dx x²/2

= 1/2 d/dx x²

= 1/2 2x

= x

Squaring both sides,

(dy/dx)² = x²

Adding 1 on both sides,

1 + (dy/dx)² = 1 + x²

√1 + (dy/dx)² = √1 + x²

The length of the curve is given by,

S = ∫₋₇⁷ √1 + (dy/dx)² dx

S = ∫₋₇⁷ √1 +x² dx

Let

I = ∫ √1 + x²dx

Take x = tan∅

dx/d∅ = d/d∅ tan∅

= sec²∅

dx = sec²∅/d∅

Substitute x = tan∅ and dx = sec²∅ d∅

I =

∫√1 + tan²sec²d∅

∫ √sec²∅sec²d∅

∫ sec∅ sec² ∅d∅

Substituting,

∫₋₇⁷ √1 + x²

(1/2 (√1+x²)x + in (√1+x² + x )₇⁻⁷

(1/2(√50)7 + in(√50 + 7) - 1/2(√50)(-7) + in(√50 -7))

1/2((√50)(7) + In(√50 + 7) + (√50)7 + In(√50 - 7)

1/2(2(√50)7 + In(√50 + 7/ √50 - 7

(50)7 + 1/2 in (√50 + 7/√50 - 7)

The length of the arc of the curve from point P to point Q. y = 1/2 x^2, P (−7, 49/2) , Q (7, 49/2) is (50)7 + 1/2 in (√50 + 7/√50 - 7).

The 99% confidence interval for the decrease in the defective rate after the reconfiguration is (-0.018, 0.086).

Let the random variable & parameters be;

x1 : Number of successes from group 1

x2 : Number of successes from group 2

p1: Proportion of successes in group 1

p2: Proportion of successes in group 2

n1 : number of trial in group 1

n2: number of trial in group 2

We are given;

x1 = 260

n1 =985

x2 = 194

n2 = 842

Thus;

p1 = 260/985

p1 =0.2640

p2 = 194/842

p2 = 0.2304

Constructing a (1 - α)100% confidence interval for proportion from the formula;

(p₁ - p₂) - z√[((p₁(1 - p₁)/n₁) + p₂(1 - p₂)/n₂)]

plugging in z = 2.576 and the values of p₁, p₂, n₁ and n₂, we have the confidence interval as;

(-0.0184631, 0.0855743)

Therefore the 99% confidence interval for the decrease in the defective rate after the reconfiguration is (-0.018, 0.086).

The ratio of false positives to true positives is 8 over 54.

According to the Question

Results of a strep throat test performed on a sample of 400 ill people are displayed in the table's data. People who have the flu and those who don't are separated into two categories. The patients are then separated into groups based on whether they tested positive or negative for strep throat within each of these categories.

We must first define what a true positive and a false positive are in order to calculate the ratio of false positives to true positives. A patient who tests positive for strep throat but does not actually have the illness is said to have a false positive. The 8% of patients in this instance who tested positive for strep throat but did not have the flu would fall under that category. A patient who tests positive for strep throat and truly has the illness is said to have a true positive. That would be the 54% of patients who tested positive for both the flu and strep throat in this instance.

We divide the percentage of false positives (8%) by the percentage of true positives (54%), which gives us the ratio of false positives to true positives.

As a result, the ratio becomes 8% / 54%, or 8/54.

It's critical to remember that this ratio is dependent on the sample and test performed and may not be the same for different populations or testing methodologies.

Answer:

41° and 49°

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are said to be complements if the sum of their measures is 90 degrees. Since one angle is eight more than twice the other, we can set up the following equation to represent the situation:

2x + 8 = 90

Solving for x, we get:

2x = 82

 x = 41

Since the two angles are complements, their measures must add up to 90 degrees. Therefore, the measure of the other angle is 90 - 41 = 49 degrees.

Therefore, the two angles have measures of 41 and 49 degrees.

Answer:

x = 60  (Answer C)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ambiguous.  I will assume that you meant:

x+4-7=1  =>  √(x + 4) - 7 = 1

This latter result simplifies to

√(x + 4) = 8

Squaring both sides, we get:  x + 4 = 64, or x = 60  (Answer C)

The value of x is 4.

Option A is the correct answer.

An equation contains one or more terms with variables connected by an equal sign.

Example:

2x + 4y = 9 is an equation.

2x = 8 is an equation.

We have,

√(x + 4 - 7) = 1

Square on both sides.

x + 4 - 7 = 1²

x + 4 - 7 = 1

Add 7 on both sides.

x + 4 = 1 + 7

x = 8

Subtract 4 on both sides.

x + 4 - 4 = 8 - 4

x = 4

Thus,

The value of x is 4.

0+by = c

by = c

divide both sides by b

by/b = c/b

y = c/b
