Answer: The absolute value of -6 is 6 because it is 6 units away from zero on the number line

Mrrafil [7]

The answer is B.

you add up all of the coins (all colors) and get thirty. which mean you have
?/30
if he draws 8 that is your numerator so you now have
8/30
after you get this you simplify so in this case you can simplify by 2. (simplifying is divine the top and bottom by the same number equally)
after you simply you get 4/15 (8÷2=4. 30÷2=15)

Fofino [41]

Answer:

S = $900\pi in^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

$V = 4\pi r^3 /3\\\\\\13500\pi = 4\pi r^3\\\\\\r^3 = \frac{13500\pi }{4\pi } \\\\\\r^3 = 3375\\\\\\r = 15 in\\\\\\S = 4\pi r^2\\\\S = 4\pi 15^2\\\\S = 900 \pi in^2$

Exclude leap years from the following calculations. (a) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a

Scrat [10]

Answer:

a) 99.73% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

b) 96.71% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

c) 98.08% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

d) 92.33% probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

A non-leap year has 365 days.

(a) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

There are 365-1 = 364 days that are not March 14. So

364/365 = 0.9973

99.73% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on March 14.

(b) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

There are 12 months, so there are 12 2nds of a month.

(365-12)/365 = 0.9671

96.71% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 2 nd day of a month.

(c) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

The following months have 31 days: January, March, May, July, August, October, December.

So there are 7 31st days of a month during a year.

Then

(365-7)/365 = 0.9808

98.08% probability that a randomly selected person does not have a birthday on the 31 st day of a month.

(d) Compute the probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

During a non-leap year, February has 28 days. So

(365-28)/365 = 0.9233

92.33% probability that a randomly selected person was not born in February.

Dima020 [189]

2/5 is close to 1/2, and it is easy to find 1/2 of 7 mentally. Half of 7 is 3.5, so Martin gave away about 3.5 pounds.
