Answer:

<u>There are 2,730 ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined in the race</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 15 (number of runners) possibilities to determine the 1st place

There are 14 possibilities (number of runners - 1) to determine the 2nd place

There are 13 possibilities (number of runners - 2) to determine the 3rd place

Number of ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined = 15 * 14 * 13

<u>Number of ways that 1st, 2nd and 3rd place can be determined = 2,730</u>

The legend on a map reads 1.25 inches represents 500 miles. If the measurement on the map between two locations is 3 inches, how
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

These two locations are 1200 miles apart.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using proportions, by a rule of three.

We have that:

1.25 inches represents 500 miles. 3 inches will represent x miles. So

1.25 inches - 500 miles

3 inches - x miles

Applying cross multiplication:

1.25x = 500*3

1.25x = 1500

x = \frac{1500}{1.25}

x = 1200

These two locations are 1200 miles apart.

Find the probability of rolling a sum of 7 or 11. (sum of 7 or 11) = _______________
Ymorist [56]

a. The probability of rolling a sum of 7 or 11. (sum of 7 or 11) is 2/9. b. the probability of not rolling a sum of 7 nor 11. (not sum of 7 nor 11) is 7/9.

<h3>What is the probability?</h3>

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

The probability of getting a total of 7 = 6/36

The probability of getting total of 11 = 2/36

a. The probability of rolling a sum of 7 or 11. (sum of 7 or 11)

= 6/36 + 2/36

= 2/9

b. Find the probability of not rolling a sum of 7 nor 11. (not sum of 7 nor 11)

= 1- 2/ 9

= 7/9

c. Find the odds against rolling a sum of 7 or 11.

= 2/9

d. The money you will win, If you make a $10 bet that you will roll a sum of 7 or 11, and the dice land on a sum of 7 or 11.

10 x  2/9 = 20/9

10 x 7/9 = 70/9

Thus, The money you will win $10.
