In New York State's Quick Draw lottery, players choose between one and ten numbers that range from 1 to 80. A total of 20 winnin

g numbers are randomly selected and displayed on a screen. If you choose a single number, your probability of selecting a winning number is 2080, or 0.25. Suppose Lester plays the Quick Draw lottery 6 times. Each time, Lester only chooses a single number. What is the probability that he loses all 6 of his lottery games?

Answer:

The probability that he loses all 6 of his lottery games is 17.798% or 0.17798.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

It is given that the probability of winning is 0.25.

That means the probability of losing is 1-0.25 = 0.75.

Suppose Lester plays the Quick Draw lottery 6 times. Each time, Lester only chooses a single number.

The probability that he loses all 6 of his lottery games

0.75^6 = 0.17798=17.798%

Hence, the probability that he loses all 6 of his lottery games is 17.798% or 0.17798.

Answer:

60°, 120°

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{ {tan}^{2}x }{2}  - 2 {cos}^{2}x = 1 \\   \\  \frac{ {tan}^{2}x  - 4{cos}^{2}x }{2} = 1 \\  \\ {tan}^{2}x  - 4{cos}^{2}x = 2 \\  \\  \frac{{sin}^{2}x}{{cos}^{2}x} - 4{cos}^{2}x = 2 \\  \\ \frac{{sin}^{2}x - 4{cos}^{4}x}{{cos}^{2}x}  = 2 \\  \\ {sin}^{2}x - 4{cos}^{4}x = 2{cos}^{2}x \\  \\ 4{cos}^{4}x  + 2{cos}^{2}x - {sin}^{2}x = 0  \\  \\ 4{cos}^{4}x  + 2{cos}^{2}x  +  {cos}^{2}x  - 1= 0  \\  \\ 4{cos}^{4}x  + 3{cos}^{2}x   - 1= 0  \\  \\ 4{cos}^{4}x  + 4{cos}^{2}x -   {cos}^{2}x - 1= 0  \\  \\4{cos}^{2}x({cos}^{2}x + 1) - 1({cos}^{2}x + 1) = 0 \\  \\ ({cos}^{2}x + 1)(4{cos}^{2}x - 1) = 0 \\  \\ ({cos}^{2}x + 1) = 0 \: or \: (4{cos}^{2}x - 1) = 0 \\  \\ {cos}^{2}x =  - 1 \: or \: 4{cos}^{2}x = 1 \\  \\ {cos}x = \sqrt{ - 1}  \: which \: is \: not \: possible \\  \therefore \: {cos}^{2}x =  \frac{1}{4}  \\  \\ \therefore \: {cos}x =   \pm\frac{1}{2} \\  \\ \therefore \: {cos}x =   \frac{1}{2}  \: or \: {cos}x =    - \frac{1}{2}  \\  \\ \therefore \: {cos}x =   {cos}60 \degree \: or \: {cos}x =     {cos}120 \degree \\  \\ \therefore \:x = 60 \degree \:  \: or  \: \: x  = 120 \degree

Answer:

  m∠B ≈ 51.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle solver can find this answer simply by entering the data. If you do this "by hand," you need to first find length BC using the Law of Cosines. Then angle B can be found using the Law of Sines.

<h3>Length BC</h3>

The Law of Cosines tells us ...

  a² = b² +c² -2bc·cos(A)

  a² = 21² +13² -2(21)(13)cos(91°) ≈ 619.529

  a ≈ 24.8903

<h3>Angle B</h3>

The Law of Sines tells us ...

  sin(B)/b = sin(A)/a

  B = arcsin(sin(A)×b/a) = arcsin(sin(91°)×21/24.8903)

  B ≈ 57.519°

The measure of angle B is about 57.5°.

Rick took his family out for dinner. He planned to leave a 15% gratuity on the bill. What is the total cost of the bill is 123.5
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

142.03 would be your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

You can multiply 123.50 by 15, which gets you $1852.50. Divide that by 100 and you are left with $18.525, which you can round to $18.53. Add that to what the cost of the bill was and you are left with $142.03

Researchers are studying the distribution of subscribers to a certain streaming service in different populations. From a random
Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

(0.17 - 0.27) \pm 1.65\sqrt{\frac{0.17*0.83 + 0.27*0.73}{200}}, that is, option C

Step-by-step explanation:

From a random sample of 200 people in City C, 34 were found to subscribe to the streaming service. From a random sample of 200 people in City K, 54 were found to subscribe to the streaming service.

This means that the proportions are:

p_C = \frac{34}{200} = 0.17

p_K = \frac{54}{200} = 0.27

Subtraction of proportions:

In the confidence interval, we subtract the proportions. So:

p = p_C - p_K = 0.17 - 0.27

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

Standard error:

For a subtraction, as the standard deviation of the distribution is the square root of the sum of the variances, we have that:

\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = \sqrt{\frac{0.17*0.83 + 0.27*0.73}{200}}

90% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.1, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95, so Z = 1.645.

So the confidence interval is:

(0.17 - 0.27) \pm 1.65\sqrt{\frac{0.17*0.83 + 0.27*0.73}{200}}, that is, option C
