Whether the answer is positive or negative depends on whether the exponent is odd or even. An odd exponent results in a negative value. An even exponent results in a positive value.

One person is selected at random from a class of 20 males and 13 females. Find the odds against selecting a male and a female
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

Odds for male= 1.538

Odds for female =  0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking for odds, not a probability. A probability shows how much the chance for the event to happen, so it can be expressed as a percentage. Odds show how the event more likely to happen compared to the chance it did not happen. If an event has a 90% probability, the odds will be 90:10= 9

In this case, the odds of selecting a male will be:  

number of male : number of female= 20:13 = 1.538

The odds of selecting a female will be

number of female : number of male = 13/20 = 0.65

Find the measure of b. (Explain how you found it please!)
Allisa [31]

Answer:

125 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep these three rules in mind:

1) A central angle (vertex is the center of the circle) has the same measure as the arc it intercepts.

2) The measure of an inscribed angle (vertex is point on circle) is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

3) Opposite angles of a rectangle inscribed in a circle are supplementary.

110 deg is a central angle.

By rule 1), the arc intercepted by the central angle 110 deg also measures 110 deg.

a is an inscribed angle that intercepts an arc of 110 deg.

By rule 2), the measure of an inscribed angle is half the measure of the intercepted arc.

angle a measures 55 deg.

Rule 3) Angles a and b are supplementary.

a + b = 180

55 + b = 180

b = 125
