What is the experimental probability of the spinner landing on red?

1 answer:

There’s a spinner with 8 sections in total with different colors. 2 red, 2 green, 2 yellow, and 2 blue.

To find the probability of the spinner landing on any color, simply take
(number of color)/(total)

To find the probability of landing on red, there are 2 reds, and 8 total. So,
2/8 = 1/4

To find the probability of landing on blue, there are 2 blues, and 8 total. So, 2/8 = 1/4. The same as before.

Flipping a coin gives a 50/50 or equal chance between two events. We should pick the answer that has only two events. That would be a true/false test since there are only two choices in this situation.

Cuál es el menor número entero que, disminuido en 8, resulta menor que su triple

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the number

Then 3x = its triple, and the condition is:

x - 8 < 3x

Subtract x from each side

-8 < 2x

Divide each side by 2

-4 < x

Reverse the inequality

x > -4

The smallest integer greater than -4 is -3.

Check:

-3 - 8 < 3(-3)

-11 < -9

It checks.

Which of the following theorems verifies that ABC~WXY?

Bumek [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is option B. AA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two triangle:

$\triangle ABC$ and $\triangle WXY$ .

The dimensions given in $\triangle ABC$ are:

$\angle A = 27^\circ\\\angle B = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle A+\angle B+\angle C = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 27+90+\angle C=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle C = 63^\circ$

The dimensions given in $\triangle WXY$ are:

$\angle Y = 63^\circ\\\angle X = 90^\circ$

We know that the sum of three angles in a triangle is equal to $180^\circ$ .

$\angle W+\angle X+\angle Y = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W+90+63=180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle W = 27^\circ$

Now, if we compare the angles of the two triangles:

$\angle A = \angle W = 27^\circ\\\angle B = \angle X= 90^\circ\\\angle C = \angle Y= 63^\circ$

So, by AA postulate (i.e. Angle - Angle) postulate, the two triangles are similar.

$\triangle ABC \sim \triangle WXY$ by AA theorem.

So, correct answer is option B. AA

Systems of equations, help please?

lord [1]

4x + 3y = 54 (1)
3x + 9y = 108 (2)

Multiply (1) by (-3)
-12x - 9y = -162
3x + 9y = 108
---------------------add
-9x = -54
x = 6

plug x = 6 into (1) to find y
4(6) + 3y = 54
24 + 3y = 54
3y = 30
y = 10

Answer
(6 , 10)

Hope it helps.

What is the solutions of the equation 2 (x+2) ^2-4=28

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

x = 2 x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2 (x+2) ^2-4=28

Add 4 to each side

2 (x+2) ^2-4+4=28+4

2 (x+2) ^2= 32

Divide by 2

2/2 (x+2) ^2=32/2

(x+2)^2 = 16

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x+2)^2) =±sqrt( 16)

x+2 = ±4

Subtract 2 from each side

x+2-2 = -2±4

x = -2±4

x = -2+4 and x = -2-4

x = 2 x = -6
