Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of drawing a king from a standard deck of 52 cards is 1/13.

In a standard deck of 52 playing cards, there are four kings: the king of hearts, the king of diamonds, the king of clubs, and the king of spades.

To find the probability of drawing a king, we need to determine the ratio of favorable outcomes (drawing a king) to the total number of possible outcomes (drawing any card from the deck).

The total number of possible outcomes is 52 because there are 52 cards in the deck.

The favorable outcomes, in this case, are the four kings.

Therefore, the probability of drawing a king is given by:

Probability = (Number of favorable outcomes) / (Number of possible outcomes)

= 4 / 52

= 1 / 13

Thus, the probability of drawing a king from a standard deck of 52 cards is 1/13.

This means that out of every 13 cards drawn, on average, one of them will be a king.

It is important to note that the probability of drawing a king remains the same regardless of any previous cards that have been drawn or any other factors.

Each draw is independent, and the probability of drawing a king is constant.

Answer:

D. reducing the loan term and increasing the down payment

Step-by-step explanation:

Sabrina's loan balance should be lowered in order to have a lower interest. Therefore, she should "increase her down payment." An increase in down payment means a smaller loan balance.

In addition to this, she should also reduce the loan term because extending the term will most likely lead to an increase overall interest. Although the monthly payment is smaller than a shorter loan term, the overall amount Sabrina will pay is actually bigger.

Answer:θ ≈ 2.57 radians

θ ≈ 0.58 radians

Step-by-step explanation:We can solve this quadratic equation in sin(θ) by factoring:

4sin^2(θ) + 7sin(θ) - 5 = 0

(4sin(θ) - 1)(sin(θ) + 5) = 0

Therefore, either:

4sin(θ) - 1 = 0

sin(θ) = 1/4

or:

sin(θ) + 5 = 0

sin(θ) = -5 (not possible, since sin(θ) is between -1 and 1)

So, we have sin(θ) = 1/4. Since 0 ≤ θ < 2π, we can find the two solutions in the interval [0, 2π) by using the inverse sine function:

θ = arcsin(1/4)

Using a calculator, we find:

θ ≈ 0.2531 or θ ≈ 2.8887

Therefore, in radians, the solutions for θ are approximately:

0.2531 (which is less than 2π)

2.8887 (which is greater than 2π)

So the only answer that satisfies 0 ≤ θ < 2π is:

The weight before the party could be any positive number

The weight of the bag of ice after the party was 7/8 pounds. So we can set up an equation:

x - weight used at the party = 7/8

We know that the weight used at the party is the weight before the party minus the weight after the party.

So we can substitute 3x for the weight before the party:

3x - (7/8) = weight used at the party

We don't know the exact weight used at the party, but we do know that it was less than or equal to the weight before the party.

So we can set up another inequality:

weight used at the party ≤ 3x

Putting it all together:

3x - (7/8) ≤ 3x

Simplifying:

-(7/8) ≤ 0

The length of the zip wire, with a 10-degree angle to the horizontal and a distance of 25 meters between the posts, is approximately 25.35 meters.

To calculate the length of the zip wire, we can use trigonometry. Let's consider the triangle formed by the zip wire, where the horizontal distance between the two posts is 25 meters and the angle between the zip wire and the horizontal is 10 degrees.

Using trigonometric functions, we can determine the length of the zip wire. In this case, we'll use the sine function because we have the opposite side (the vertical distance) and we want to find the hypotenuse (the length of the zip wire).

The formula for sine is:

sin(angle) = opposite / hypotenuse

Rearranging the formula, we have:

hypotenuse = opposite / sin(angle)

In this case, the opposite side is the vertical distance, which is h.

So, the formula becomes:

hypotenuse = h / sin(angle)

To find h, we can use the formula for the length of the zip wire:

h = 25 * tan(angle)

Substituting this into the previous formula, we get:

hypotenuse = (25 * tan(angle)) / sin(angle)

Calculating the value, we have:

hypotenuse = (25 * tan(10°)) / sin(10°)

Using a calculator, we find:

tan(10°) ≈ 0.1763

sin(10°) ≈ 0.1736

Substituting these values, we can calculate the length of the zip wire:

hypotenuse ≈ (25 * 0.1763) / 0.1736 ≈ 25.35 meters

Therefore, the length of the zip wire is approximately 25.35 meters.

ANSWER and EXPLANATION

(a) We want to find the range of values that Rachel can use to represent a treasure box that has a wand.

The chances of getting an amulet, a wand, or a ring all add up to 100.

This implies that from the number 1 to 100, 1 - 34 can represent a treasure box having an amulet.

In other words, the next 47 numbers can represent a treasure box having a wand i.e. 35 - 81.

Finally, the last 19 numbers can represent a treasure box having a ring i.e. 82 - 100.

Therefore, the range of values that Rachel can use to represent a treasure box having a wand is 35 - 81.

(b) To find the percentage of the treasure boxes that had a wand, find the number of random numbers that fall in the range of 35 - 81, divide by 10, and multiply by 100.

There are 8 simulated treasure boxes whose random number falls in the given range, hence, the percentage of boxes that had a wand is:

Answer:

\(f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x + 5\)

Step-by-step explanation:

So you can generally express a linear function use the slope-intercept form as such: \(y=mx+b\) where m=slope, and b=y-intercept.

The y-intercept is defined as the value of f(0), since when the line crosses the y-axis, the x-value is 0, and as provided in the table that value is 5, so we have the function rule: \(f(x) = mx+5\)

The slope is defined as how much y-changes, as x increases by 1. We can generally use the formula: \(m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\) and this can be found using any two points, since the slope is constant.

We can use the two points (0, 5) and (2, 6) and plug it into the equation, to find the rise/run

\(\frac{6-5}{2-0} = \frac{1}{2}\)

So plugging this into the slope-intercept form you get the function

\(f(x) = \frac{1}{2}x + 5\)

Explanation:

Let's go through each answer choice to see which are true and which are false.

A.

The fractions for advertising and rent are 1/6 and 7/12 respectively. The LCD is 12, so let's get 1/6 to have a denominator of 12. Multiply top and bottom by 2 to get 1/6 = 2/12.

Now we can compare the fractions 2/12 (aka 1/6) and 7/12. Clearly 7/12 is larger. It's like saying "having 7 slices of pizza is more than 2 slices of pizza". Therefore, the claim that more was spent on advertising compared to rent is false.

----------------------

B.

1/4 = 3/12 when multiplying top and bottom by 3

3/12 was spent on supplies and 2/12 was spent on advertising

We see that more was spent on supplies, so claim B is true

----------------------

C.

This claim is false because it contradicts claim B.

Another way to see why it's false is to use a calculator to get these decimal values

Since 0.17 is not larger than 0.25, this means 1/6 is not larger than 1/4.

----------------------

D.

We could use any of the methods mentioned in the previous sections, but I'll go another route.

For now assume that the fractions for supplies and rent (1/4 and 7/12 respectively) are equal.

Let's use cross multiplication to say the following:

1/4 = 7/12

1*12 = 4*7

12 = 28

Clearly the two sides are different so the original fractions aren't equal. To fix this error, replace each equal sign with a "less than" sign like so

1/4 < 7/12

1*12 < 4*7

12 < 28

Think of it like working backward up the chain. Start with 12 < 28 which is clearly true, and you can work backwards to end up with 1/4 < 7/12.

The fact we end up with 1/4 < 7/12 shows the claim "The bookstore spends more on supplies than rent" is false. It's the other way around: the bookstore spent more on rent compared to supplies.

----------------------

AB = A - B = (6 - 3, 4 - 7) = (3, -3)

Multiply the vector AB by the dilation ratio of 3:

3 AB = 3 (3, -3)  = (9, -9)

Add the resulting vector to the coordinates of the center B:

BC = B + 3 AB = (3, 7) + (9, -9)

BC = (12, -2)
