Linear-equations/677160: Hello, i'm not sure which category this should go in. I have a question of 'give the perimeter of this triangle in the form of no brackets, and brackets (different questions). The algebraic expression is t+2. How would you work this out? 1 solutions
Answer 420741 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-07 13:46:49 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
the perimeter of this triangle is equal to the sum of all sides:
since you are given the algebraic expression  , it is the length of each side; an equilateral triangle has all sides equal
so,  ,  and  and

Probability-and-statistics/677114: Please help me solve this problem
Assume that the probability of a boy being born is the same as the probability of a girl being born. Find the probability that a family with three children will have two boys and one girl?
1 solutions
Answer 420702 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-07 11:53:09 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Solution:
The probability of a boy or a girl being born is  . The probability of  boys and  girl being born is (0.5)^2(0.5)^1 =(0.5)^3 and the number of ways this can happen is C(2,1).
Therefore the probability of exactly  boys and  girl being born is C(2,1)(0.5)^3
.
C(2,1)(0.5)^3
since  or  %

| Solved by pluggable solver: FIND a line by slope and one point |
What we know about the line whose equation we are trying to find out:
- it goes through point (0, 9)
- it has a slope of -6
First, let's draw a diagram of the coordinate system with point (0, 9) plotted with a little blue dot:

Write this down: the formula for the equation, given point and intercept a, is
(see a paragraph below explaining why this formula is correct)
Given that a=-6, and , we have the equation of the line:

Explanation: Why did we use formula ? Explanation goes here. We are trying to find equation y=ax+b. The value of slope (a) is already given to us. We need to find b. If a point ( , ) lies on the line, it means that it satisfies the equation of the line. So, our equation holds for ( , ): Here, we know a, , and , and do not know b. It is easy to find out: . So, then, the equation of the line is: .
Here's the graph:

Subset/676884: what are all the subsets of 3,5,7 1 solutions
Answer 420555 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-06 19:13:45 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
all the subsets of {3,5,7} are:
{ }, {3}, {5}, {7}, {3,5}, {3,7}, {5,7}, {3,5,7}
so, there are  subsets of {3,5,7}

Geometry_proofs/676702: Use a paragraph proof to prove the corresponding angles postulate:
Given: line AB is parallel to line CD
Prove: Corresponding angles are congruent

Answer 420473 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-06 15:31:01 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Theorem 3.5 If two parallel lines are intersected by a transversal, then corresponding angles are congruent.
Given: line AB is parallel to line CD
Prove: Corresponding angles are congruent
Proof:
you have already learned vertical angles are congruent and corresponding angles are
congruent if they are formed by parallel lines
using this information we can go on to prove alternate interior angles are also congruent if they are formed by parallel lines
since the lines are parallel, than
< 1 and < 3 are congruent,
< 2 and < 3 are vertical angles
you have studied a theorem that states all vertical angles are congruent, so
that means < 1 congruent to < 3 because they are corresponding angles,
and < 2 congruent to < 3 because they are vertical angles,
that means < 1 must be congruent to < 3

test/676699: When you square each side of an EQUATION, is the resulting equation equivalent to the original? 1 solutions
Answer 420461 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-06 14:38:35 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If an equation is true and each side is squared, or multiplied, or divided by the
same nonzero number, the resulting equation  equivalent to the original.

test/676499: Domain and range 1 solutions
Answer 420394 by MathLover1(6634) on 2012-11-06 09:06:18 (Show Source):

The domain is all the values that x is allowed to take on.
The range is the set of all possible output values (usually y), which result from using the function formula.
example:
the domain and range of the following relation:
(–3, 5), (–2, 5), (–1, 5), (0, 5), (1, 5), (2, 5)
I'll just list the x-values for the domain and the y-values for the range:
domain: –3, –2, –1, 0, 1, 2
range: 5
Is the relation a function?
Yes, this is an example of a "boring" function:
every x-value (each is different) goes to the exact same y-value, but even so
this relation is a function that represents the horizontal line
