Adrawer contains 12 identical white socks, 18 identical black socks and 14 identical brown socks. what is the least number of socks you must choose, without looking, to be certain that you have chosen two brown socks?

The only time you can be so certain that you have picked 2 brown socks is when there are no more white socks and black socks. This means that to be 100% sure that you have picked 2 brown socks, you must pick all 12 white socks and all 18 black socks and only then you can pick 2 brown socks without looking. Therefore the total number of socks that should be picked is:

Total number of socks = 12 white socks + 18 black socks + 2 brown socks

Total number of socks = 32 socks

A total picking of 32 socks is required to be certain without looking that 2 brown have already been chosen.

the red lines denote the population of the bacteria after 35 hours. that would be 2,409.24. the y-intercept is the blue line which is 800 because that is the starting point. the equation used to make the graph is 800(1.032)^h, where h is the number of hours.

step-by-step explanation:

(1, –1), (16, –4), (36, –6)

step-by-step explanation:

given that the function is

this can also be written as

we have to graph this function and check which list of points lie on the graph

see attachment for graph:

we find that the points lying are (1,-1) (16,-4) and (36,-6)

since square root is there we find that x can only be posiitve but y can be since square root both positive and negative.
