Hair color is an inherited trait. In Marci's family, her mother has brown hair. Her father has blonde hair. The family has 6 children in all. Of the children 6 children,1/3 of them have blonde hair,1/6 of them have red hair, and 1/2 of them have brown hair. In simplest form, what fraction of the children has red or brown hair?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the number of children has red or brown hair is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

We have  been  given that in Marci's family there are total 6 children.

Out of 6 children

Number of children have blonde hair = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Number of children have red hair = [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

Number of children have brown hair = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Since, we have to find the fraction of children has red or brown hair=[tex]\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{2}=\frac{4}{6}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Hence, the number of children has red or brown hair is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Answer 2
Final answer:

The fraction of children with red or brown hair in Marci's family is 2/3.

Explanation:

To determine the fraction of children that have red or brown hair, we can add the fractions of children that have red hair and brown hair. From the given information, we know that 1/6 of the children have red hair and 1/2 of the children have brown hair. To find a common denominator, we can multiply the fractions by the same number. Multiplying 1/6 by 3, we get 3/18. Multiplying 1/2 by 9, we get 9/18. Adding the two fractions together, we get a total of 12/18. However, we can simplify this fraction by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6. After simplifying, we find that the fraction of children with red or brown hair is 2/3.

What is the measure of Angle 1 and 2? Enter your answer as a number.

Answers

Final answer:

The measure of angles can be in degrees, minutes of arc, and seconds of arc, with the example given (9:00 a.m. clock hands) resulting in a 90-degree angle.

Explanation:

The measure of angles is often given in degrees, minutes of arc, and seconds of arc.

These units subdivide a degree into finer measurements, where one degree equals 60 minutes and one minute equals 60 seconds.

One example of using these measurements is in Astronomy, where astronomers measure the angular separation of stars in the sky.

Angles are crucial to understanding the positions and movements of celestial bodies.

Returning to the practice problem provided: 'What is the angle in degrees between the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock showing 9:00 a.m.?', we can calculate this using the understanding that each hour on the clock represents 30 degrees (360 degrees / 12 hours).

At 9:00 a.m., the hour hand is on the 9 and the minute hand is on the 12, creating a 90-degree angle between them.

What is the value of Y who knows please help me

Answers

Answer:

y =65

Step-by-step explanation:

We will call the unknown angle in the triangle x

Angle x plus 130 form a straight line

x+130 = 180

Subtract 130 from each side

x+130-130 = 180-130

x = 50


The three angles in the triangle add together to make 180 degrees

x+y+y = 180

We know angle x = 50

50 + 2y = 180

Subtract 50 from each side

50+2y-50 = 180-50

2y = 130

Divide each side by 2

2y/2 = 130/2

y = 65

y = 3x + C

y = mx + 5

y = 3x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The standard form for lines with slope = 3 is

y = 3x + C where C is the y-intercept and can be any number

B. The standard form for lines with y-intercept = 5

y = mx + 5 where m is the slope and can be any number

C. The only line with slope = 3 and y-intercept =5

y = 3x + 5

There is only one line because both m and C are given.


Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

a is y=3x+c; c is the y-intercept

b is y=mx+5; m is the slope

c is y=3x+5 as it is the only line with both slope = 3 and y-intercept =5

What are the coordinates of the midpoint of the segment whose endpoints are A (-1, -2) and B (6, 12)

x-coordinate:


y-coordinate:

Answers

Answer:

Mid point = [tex](\frac{5}{2} ,5)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the coordinates of the end points of a line segment AB and we are to find the coordinates of its mid point.

The coordinates of the end points are: A (-1, -2) and B (6, 12).

We know the formula of the mid point:

Mid point = [tex](\frac{x_1+x_2}{2} ,\frac{y_1+y_2}{2} )[/tex]

So putting in the given values to find the mid point of line segment AB:

Mid point = [tex](\frac{-1+6}{2} ,\frac{-2+12}{2} )[/tex] = [tex](\frac{5}{2} ,5)[/tex]

What is the period of the function f(x) shown in the graph?

Answers

Answer:

The period is [tex]\pi[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is determined by finding the length of 1 cycle of the function. Trig functions sine and cosine have a wavy form. One starts and ends int he middle - sine. The other starts above and stops above- cosine. Regardless of the function, the period will be the same because the period asks "how fast does this function complete 1 wave?"

If cosine we start at one of the top points, trace the graph till we reach the same y-value again. The period is the time or difference in x-values. For instance if I started at the x-value [tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex] and ended at [tex]\frac{3\pi }{2}[/tex] then I'd subtract them.

[tex]\frac{3\pi }{2}[/tex]-[tex]\frac{\pi }{2}[/tex]=[tex]\frac{2\pi }{2}[/tex]=[tex]\pi[/tex]

The period is [tex]\pi[/tex].

triangle a'b'c' is a dilation of triangle abc. which is the correct description of the dilation?

Answers

Answer: A

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\overline{AB}[/tex] has a length of 6

[tex]\overline{A'B'}[/tex] has a length of 6 + 12 = 18, which is 3 times the length of [tex]\overline{AB}[/tex]

B = B' so this will be the center point

⇒ center B and a scale factor of 3



Answer:

Option A is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Triangle A'B'C' is a dilation of triangle ABC.

We can apply the formula to get the scale factor as

Scale factor = [tex]\frac{\text{One side of triangle A'B'C'}}{\text{Corresponding side of triangle ABC}}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{A'B'}{AB}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{AB'+AA'}{AB}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{6+12}{6}[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{18}{6}[/tex]

= 3

Therefore, ΔABC has been dilated with a scale factor of 3 about the point B as the center.

Option A is the answer.

a sample of 144 was taken from a population with a standard deviation of 36 inches. In this case the sample mean will be within how many inches of the population mean 99.7% of thew time?

Answers

Answer:

9 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The population is within 6 standard deviations of the mean with a confidence of 99.7 percent, 3 above and 3 below

 

The standard deviation of the sample mean is equal to the population standard deviation divided by the square root of the sample size

population standard deviation = 36

sample size = 144


standard deviation of the sample mean = 36/ sqrt(144)

                                                                   =36/12

                                                                   =3

The margin of error is  the number of standard deviations above  the mean * the standard deviations

margin of error  = 3 * 3

                           = 9 inches

Answers

Answer:

First I'm not exactly sure what you're asking but the equation for slope is:

Y2-Y1/X2-X1=M


Step-by-step explanation:

M is your slope

X1 and Y1 represent your first point

X2 and Y2 represent your second point

To translate you are finding the rate of change (slope) between two points


Answer: Slope = ∆y/∆x = y2-y1/x2-x1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line which is also known as the gradient can be gotten by taking the ratio of the change in coordinate of y-axis to the x-axis of the line.

Change in y axis = y2-y1

Where y2 and y1 are final length and initial length respectively on the y axis

Change in x axis = x2-x1

Where x2 and x1 are final length and initial length respectively on the x axis.

The slope of the line therefore gives;

Slope = ∆y/∆x = y2-y1/x2-x1
