Using the probability concept, we have that:

a) The experimental probability is of 0.75 = 75%.

b) The theoretical probability is of 0.5 = 50%.

c) As the number of trials increases, the probabilities are expected to get closer, though they might not be equal.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>. For an experimental probability, these number of outcomes are taken from previous trials. A theoretical probability is calculated before any trial, and as the number of trials increase, the experimental and theoretical probabilities get closer.

From the table, there were 20 trials, and 2 + 3 + 4 + 4 + 2 = 15 resulted in even numbers, hence the experimental probability is:

p = 15/20 = 0.75 = 75%.

For a fair machine, even and odd numbers should be equally as likely, hence the theoretical probability is of 0.5 = 50%.

For item c, we have that as the number of trials increases, the probabilities are expected to get closer, though they might not be equal.

Product rule<br> G(x)=(2x+1)(x^3-1)
Andrej [43]

Answer:

2x^4 + x^3 - 2x -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Do each one at a time and add them after you are done is necessary, first multiply 2x times x^3 this gives 2x^4. Then multiply 1 times x^3 to get x^3. Then multiply 2x times -1 to get -2x. Then multiply -1 and +1 to get -1. Then combine them together. None of the terms are like terms so you don't need to worry about combining them further but keep that in mind for other problems. The final answer becomes 2x^4 + X^3 - 2x -1 because none of the terms are the same power.

5) A farmer raises turkeys and pigs. There are 15 animals all together. The farmer
nika2105 [10]

Answer:

2 pigs, 13 turkeys

Step-by-step explanation:

34=2t+4p (equation for legs)

t+p=15 (equation for total # of animals) --> t=15-p

substitution:

34=2(15-p)+4p

p=2

plug back in to other equation

t=15-(2)

t= 13
