Answer:

"p," the probability of success, is the chance of winning a prize.  This is equal to 50% (1/2).

1 - p, the probability of failure, is the chance of not winning or losing a prize.  This is equal to 50$ (1 - 0.5).

Step-by-step explanation:

When an outcome is obtained from two events, the probability of the outcome happening is 50% (1/2).

On the other hand, the probability of the intended outcome not happening is the difference between 1 and the probability of obtaining the outcome from the two events.  This is statistically expressed as 1 - p.

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

breadth = 8, length = 32

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2 x (length x breadth)

                = 2 x ((24 + b) + b))

                = 2 x (24 + 2b)

                = 48 + 4 b

48 + 4b meters costs rupees 2400

each meter costs rupees 30

so,

30 x (48 + 4b) = 2400

1440 + 120b    = 2400

           120b    = 960

                 b    = 8

the breadth is 8m, the length is 8 + 24 = 32m

Emily wants to buy a car. She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments o
olga55 [171]

Answer: the cost of the car is $54600

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of the car.

She pays a deposit equal to 20% of the cost of the car. This means that the amount of money that she paid as deposit would be

20/100 × x = 0.2 × x = 0.2x

The remaining balance would be

x - 0.2x = 0.8x

She will pay the balance in 8 equal payments of $5460 each month. This means that

0.8x/8 = 5460

0.1x = 5460

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 0.1, it becomes

0.1x/0.1 = 5460/0.1

x = 54600
