There are 20 gloves in a drawer: 5 pairs of black gloves, 3 pairs of brown,
and 2 pairs of gray. You select the gloves in the dark and can check them
only after a selection has been made. What is the smallest number of gloves
you need to select to guarantee getting the following?
(a) At least one matching pair
(b) At least one matching pair of each color

Answers

Answer 1

The number of gloves selected for each cases is 11 and 19 gloves respectively.

How is selection done?

In mathematics, most of the times selection is done using permutation and combination.

Putting things or numbers in order is known as a permutation.

Combinations are a means to choose items or numbers from a collection of items or groups of items without regard to their order.

Given,

       Total black gloves = 5 left hand+ 5 right hand

       Total brown gloves = 3 left hand + 3 right hand

        Total gray gloves = 2 left hand + 2 right hand

Now to find the least number of gloves for the given conditions, we start with the worst condition.

a) To get at least one matching pair, we first consider no matching pair, which is (5 +3+2) gloves of only left only or right only hand of each colour.

Now to make one pair, we need to select only one glove of the opposite hand of any colour.

Therefore to get atleast one matching pair, smallest number of gloves to be selected = 5 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 11 gloves

b) In this case also we start with worst case.

   For no matching pair of each colour we have to take 10 black gloves, 6 brown gloves and  2 gray gloves of any one hand.

Therefore to get matching pair of each colour, we have to take one more gray glove.

Therefore to get atleast one matching pair of each colour, smallest number of gloves to be selected = 10 + 6 + 2 + 1 = 19 gloves.

A white cylindrical silo has a diameter of 30 feet and a height of 80 feet. A red stripe with a horizontal width of 3 feet is painted on the silo, as shown, making two complete revolutions around it. What is the area of the stripe in square feet
The provided solution says that
The cylinder can be "unwrapped" into a rectangle, to get a stripe that is a parallelogram with base 3 and height 80.
However, I don't understand how the height of the stripe can be eighty. The distance from the top of the cylinder to the bottom is 80 feet as given, so how can a winded stripe that goes around be also 80 feet? Isn't the shortest distance, 80 ft, simply from the top to the bottom? How does a winded spiral also become 80 feet ?

Answers

The stripe's area in square feet is 240 square units.

What is area?

The size of a region on a surface is measured in area. Surface area refers to the area of an open surface or the border of a three-dimensional object, whereas area of a plane region or plane area refers to the area of a form or planar lamina. The total space occupied by a flat (2-D) surface or the form of an item is defined as its area. Draw a square on a sheet of paper using a pencil. It is a two-dimensional figure. The area of the form on the paper is referred to as its Area. Consider your square to be made up of smaller unit squares.

What is Proportionality?

When two quantities have some dependence in their values they can be said proportional to each other.

It can be of two types such as direct and indirect.

The direct proportionality means the values of both the quantities are increasing or decreasing at the same time while the indirect proportionality implies value of one quantity is increasing while the other is decreasing.

The table for the given case can be written as follows,

Packages of Golf Balls                                     Cost

        1                                                                  $15

        2                                                                 $30

        4                                                                 $60

The relation for proportionality can be obtained as,

15/1 = 30/2 = 45/3 = 60/4 = 15

(A) Suppose n be the number of packages.

Then, the cost is given as 15n.

(B) The cost of 7 packages is as below,

Answer:

[tex] \sf \: x = {20}^{o} [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's take the value of y as,

→ y = 90°

(Because, it is a right angle)

Forming the equation,

→ x + y + 70° = 180°

Now the value of x will be,

→ x + y + 70° = 180°

→ x + 90° + 70° = 180°

→ x + 160° = 180°

→ x = 180° - 160°

→ [ x = 20° ]

Hence, the value of x is 20°.

Answers

In the given diagram beside a coffee, the value of x is 38.

What is diagram?

A diagram is a visual, symbolic representation of data. Diagrams have been used on cave walls since prehistoric times, but they became more common during the Enlightenment. The method occasionally employs the projection of a three-dimensional visualisation onto a two-dimensional surface. Sometimes the word "graph" is used in place of the word "diagram."

We know that all angles here add up to 360°

And with the vertical angles theorem we get the equation

2(36°) + 2(78 - x)° + 2(3x - 10) = 360°

2(36 + 78 - x + 3x - 10) = 360°

2(104 + 2x) = 360°

208 + 4x = 360°

4x = 360 - 208

4x = 152

x = 152/4

x = 38

Thus, In the given diagram beside a coffee, the value of x is 38.

The area of the fairway between two streams on a golf course cannot be determined without additional details such as the dimensions or measurements of the fairway and the streams.

Question 2

A. Triangle

THE FAIRWAY

To find the area of the fairway, you could separate it into figures whose areas you can find using formulas.

Step 1: Draw a diagram of the fairway, including the two streams and any other relevant features such as bunkers or trees.

Step 2: Divide the fairway into two sections, one on either side of the streams.

Step 3: Measure the width and length of each section of the fairway.

Step 4: Use the formula for the area of a rectangle to find the area of each section. (Area = width x length)

Step 5: Add the areas of the two sections together to find the total area of the fairway between the two streams.

THE TRAPEZOID

The base of the trapezoid would be the width of the fairway and the width of the stream, and the height would be the distance between the fairway and the stream. The area of a trapezoid is (a+b)h÷2, where a and b are the lengths of the bases and h is the height. The triangle would be formed by the side of the trapezoid that is the distance between the fairway and the stream, and the width of the stream. The area of a triangle is base×height÷2.

A principal randomly chose 40 students from grade 7. Of these students, 9 were wearing watches. Based on this information, what is the most reasonable prediction of the number of students wearing watches in a group of 480 students from grade 7?

Answers

Answer:

108 students

Step-by-step explanation:

We can just multiply each value by a k value, or a constant of variation, since we would expect them to be proportional. To find it, we take our two known variables and divide them. 480/40 = 12. Now we multiply that number by 9 to find the projected amount of students wearing watches in the whole grade. 12*9 = 108.
