Answer:

28/57

Step-by-step explanation:

odds in favor of event occurring = (probability event occurs)/(probability event does not occur)

Let p = probability event occurs.

Then the probability the event does not occur is 1 - p.

Let the odds = a/b.

a/b = p/(1 - p)

a(1 - p) = bp

a - ap = bp

bp + ap = a

p(a + b) = a

p = a/(a + b)

p = 28/(28 + 29)

p = 28/57

<h3>Answer:  28/57</h3>

Explanation:

The odds in favor of 28 to 29 means there are 28 ways the event E could occur and 29 ways it doesn't occur.

So there are 28 instances out of 28+29 = 57 ways total.

It leads to the fraction 28/57 which cannot be reduced further.

Two quantities are related, as shown in the table:
Rashid [163]

Answer:

y = \frac{1}{2} x + 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given table it is clear that x and y are linearly related.

Now, any two points that satisfy the relation between x and y are sufficient to express the equation.

The first two given points are (2,3), and (4,4).

Therefore, the equation is \frac{y - 4}{4 - 3} = \frac{x - 4}{4 - 2}

⇒ y - 4 = \frac{1}{2} (x - 4)

⇒ y - 4 = \frac{1}{2} x - 2

⇒ y = \frac{1}{2} x + 2. (Answer)

2x + y = 3 is the blue boundary line...the shading is below the line which means 2x + y is less than or equal to 3

y - x = 2 is the red boundary line... the shading is above the line which means
y - x is greater than or equal to 2

ANSWER: 2x + y is less than or equal to 3 and y - x is greater than or equal to 2
