h correct answer and -10 for each wrong answer. No marks are deducted for not attempting a question. Which team won the game, if:
a. Team A gave 3 correct and 2 wrong answers?

b. Team B gave 2 correct, 2 wrong answers and they didn’t attempt one question?

From the given scenarios, the positions of winning of each team is; Team C came first, Team A came second and Team B came third

<h3>How to find probability of winning?</h3>

From the question, we can derive the following;

Marks gained by team A = 3 × 20 = 60 marks

Marks deducted = 2 × 10 = 20 marks

Hence;

Total marks for Team A = 60 - 20 = 40 marks

Marks gained by team B = 2 × 20 = 40 marks

Marks deducted = 2 × 10 = 20 marks

Hence, total marks of team B = 40 - 20 = 20 marks

Marks gained by team C = 3 × 20 = 60 marks

Marks deducted = 1 × 10 = 10 marks

Hence, total marks of team C = 60 - 10 = 50 marks

Thus, we can conclude that;

Team C came first, Team A came second and Team B came third

Math question down below

Kipish [7]

Answer: 6928

----------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

We have two areas we need to find: The area of the trapezoid and the area of the rectangle. Let's call these areas A1 and A2.

Area of Trapezoid = (height)*(base1+base2)/2
A1 = h*(b1+b2)/2
A1 = 80*(150+100)/2
A1 = 80*250/2
A1 = 20000
A1 = 10000

Area of Rectangle = (length)*(width)
A2 = L*W
A2 = 48*64
A2 = 3072

Subtract the two areas (A1-A2) to get the difference D
D = A1 - A2
D = 10000 - 3072
D = 6928

This difference D is exactly equal to the shaded area.

vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a). Mean of the given data set = $\frac{32+28+18+40+22}{5}$

= 28

b). x $x-\overline{x}$ $(x-\overline{x})^2$

32 32-28 = 4 16

28 28 - 28 = 0 0

18 18 - 28 = -10 100

40 40 - 28 = 12 144

22 22 - 28 = -6 36

$\sum({x-\overline x})^2$ = 296

c). Standard deviation = $\sqrt{\frac{\sum (x-\overline{x})^2}{n}}$

= $\sqrt{\frac{296}{5} }$

= 7.69

d). Mean of the new set of weights = $\frac{32+33+34+35+36}{5}$

= 34

Since mean of the data set is more close to each data, standard deviation will be less than the deviation given in part (c).
