The sum of probability for an event happening and not happening must be equal to 1 because there is a 100% chance that one or the other will occur.

So the probability on not drawing a quarter:

P(!Q)=1-4/5

P(!Q)=5/5-4/5

P(!Q)=1/5

As a percentage:

p/100=1/5

p=100/5

p=20%

Can someone please help with this problem
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

f(x)=-3(x+2)^2-2

Step-by-step explanation: the the FX graph the -3 in my equation represents the decrease(for being negative) in the graph, the positive 2 represents the x axis if that number is positive the negative 3 is going to change the x axis then will end up being negative which is why the x starts off in negative 2, the last number represents the y axis if the y axis is negative 2 the y will start off at -2

A horse ran 800 meters in 40 seconds , 1200 meters in 60 seconds , and 480 meters in 24 seconds . Is this a proportional relatio
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

This is a proportional relationship, the constant of proportionality is 20m/s and it represents that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  

Equation:  d = 20s, where d=distance and s=number of seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out whether this relationship is proportional, you need to see if the rate at which the horse runs is constant (the same).  If you look at the three sets of data (24, 480), (40, 800) and (60, 1200) where the pair is (seconds, meters), you can see that for any two sets of data the change in meters divided by the change in seconds is consistently 20m/s.  For example:

\frac{1200-800}{60-40}=\frac{400}{20}=20

Since the constant is 20, we know that the horse can run 20 meters every second.  To find the horse's total distance, we need to multiply the rate by the number of seconds that it runs:

d = 20s

Step-by-step explanation: divide 2/3x by 2 and do that to both sides to get 1/3x = 3 then multiply by 3 to get the whole x. multiply on both sides to get x = 9.
