Four teams A,B,C, and D compete in a tournament, and exactly one of them will win the tournament. Teams A and B have the same ch

ance of winning the tournament. Team C is twice as likely to win the tournament as team D. The probability that either team A or team C wins the tournament is 0.6. Find the probabilities of each team winning the tournament.

Answer:

A= 0,2

B= 0,2

C= 0,4

D=0,2

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that only one team can win, so the sum of each probability of wining  is one

P(A)+P(B)+P(C)+P(D)=1

then we Know that the probability of Team A and B are the same, so

P(A)=P(B)

And that the  the probability that either team A or team C wins the tournament is 0.6, so P(A)+Pc)= 0,6, then P(C)= 0.6-P(A)

Also, we know that team C is twice as likely to win the tournament as team D, so P(C)= 2 P(D) so P(D) = P(C)/2= (0.6-P(A))/2

Now if we use the first formula:

P(A)+P(B)+P(C)+P(D)=1

P(A)+P(A)+0.6-P(A)+(0.6-P(A))/2=1

0,5 P(A)+0.9=1

0,5 P(A)= 0,1

P(A)= 0,2

P(B)= 0,2

P(C)=0,4

P(D)=0,2

The quadratic function below has an axis of symmetry through x = -4; a vertex at (-4, -9) and zeroes at x = -7 and x = 0.
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

True

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a parabola in vertex form is

y = a(x - h)² + k

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier

Here (h, k) = (- 4, - 9), thus

y = a(x + 4)² - 9

To find a substitute the coordinates of the zero (- 7, 0) into the equation.

0 = a(- 7 + 4)² - 9, that is

0 = 9a - 9 ( add 9 to both sides )

9a = 9 ( divide both sides by 9 )

a = 1, thus

y = (x + 4)² - 9 ← expand factor using FOIL

y = x² + 8x + 16 - 9

y = x² + 8x + 7

I’m not sure how to slove this problem it’s a equilateral triangle and I’m trying to find out what the side is equal to.
Lerok [7]

Answer:

AB = 5/4 y - 1  = 5/4 (12/13) -1 = 2/13

AC= 7/3 y - 2 = 7/3 (12/13) -2 = 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Because it is a equilateral triangle, it means all sides have the same length.

AB = AC

5/4 y - 1 = 7/3 y - 2

5/4 y - 7/3 y = -2 +1

-13/12 y = -1

y = 12/13

input y to the equation.

AB = 5/4 y - 1  = 5/4 (12/13) -1 = 2/13

AC= 7/3 y - 2 = 7/3 (12/13) -2 = 2/13

Which statement is modeled by the expression?
Afina-wow [57]
A librarian has 150 books to be placed on shelves with an equal number of books on each shelf. If k is the number of shelves to be used, then 150/k is the number of books on each shelf.

Example : lets say there are 10 shelves.....so k = 10
150/10 = 15 books on each shelf.
