Answer: Odds in favor = Number of successes: Number of failures
Step-by-step explanation:
Example
A jewelry box contains 5 white pearl, 2 gold rings and 6 silver rings. What are the odds of drawing a white pearl from the jewelry box?
Number of successes = 5
Number of failures = 2 + 6 = 8
Numbers of ways to draw a white pearl: number of ways to draw another jewelry.
5:8
The odds are 5:8
Problem 23
A = 40
B = 3x+1
C = 3x+1
B and C are congruent, so they have the same angle measure
The three angles of any triangle add to 180 degrees
A+B+C = 180
40+(3x+1)+(3x+1) = 180
6x+42 = 180
6x = 180-42
6x = 138
x = 138/6
x = 23
Answer: B) 23

Problem 24
AB is the midsegment parallel to XY
So AB is half that of XY
AB = (1/2)*XY
AB = (1/2)*28
AB = 14
Answer: B) 14

Problem 25
Note the ratio of the given rectangle's sides: 7/12 = 0.583 roughly
Divide the answer choices in a similar fashion
A) 5/7 = 0.714
B) 14/36 = 0.389
C) 21/36 = 0.583
D) 21/48 = 0.4375
We get the same result in choice C as we did in the original rectangle
Answer: C) 21 ft x 36 ft
Answer:
(x - 8)(2x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor a polynomial of the form
ax² + bx + c,
follow these steps:
1) Multiply ac together.
2) Find 2 factors of ac that add to b. Call these factors p and q.
3) Break up the middle term of the polynomial into px + qx.
4) Factor by grouping.
Now let's follow the steps above with your problem.
You are given the polynomial
2x² - 13x - 24,
so a = 2, b = -13, and c = -24
1) Find ac.ac is the product 2(-24) = -48
2) Now we need to find 2 factors of -48 that add to b, -13.
I know that 48 = 3 × 16, so if we use -16 and 3 for the two numbers, we have
-16 + 3 = -13
and -16 × 3 = -48.
3) Now we break up the middle term of the polynomial, -13x, into -16x + 3x.
The polynomial is now
2x² - 16x + 3x - 24
4) We factor the polynomial by grouping. To factor by grouping, you factor a common factor out of the first 2 terms and factor out a common factor out of the last two terms.
2x² - 16x + 3x - 24 =
= 2x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8)
We now see the common factor of x - 8, so we factor that out.
= (x - 8)(2x + 3)
Answer: (x - 8)(2x + 3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Males proportion 
Females proportion 

(one tailed test for comparison of proportions)
Test statistic = 
=-1.3641
Here p= combined proportion = 
p value = 0.0869
Since p >0.05, accept null hypothesis.
The evidence does not suggest a higher proportion of females are annoyed by this behavior
