4 books make 1 foot since there are 12 inches in a foot so 4 * 5 is 20

There are 20 books in the stack

A caterpillar crawling in a straight line across a coordinate plane starts at point (-3,

Irina18 [472]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In vector form, the equation of point p on the line can be written as ...

p = (-3, -4) +t(25 -(-3), 38 -(-4)) . . . . . for some scalar t

p = (-3, -4) +t(28, 42)

p = (-3, -4) +14t(2, 3)

where t takes on any value between 0 and 1.

If we let t = n/14 for some integer 0 ≤ n ≤ 14, then the coordinates of point p will be integers.

There are 15 values that n can have in the allowed range.

The caterpillar touches 15 points with integer coordinates.

A bag contains tickets numbered 1 through 5. Use the probability distribution to determine the probability of drawing an odd num

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Odd numbered tickets:

Probability of one is 1/5 plus half of 1/5.

$P(X = 1) = \frac{1}{5} + \frac{1}{10} = \frac{3}{10}$

Probability of 3 is half of 1/5.

$P(X = 3) = \frac{1}{10}$

Probability of 5 is 1/5. So

$P(X = 5) = \frac{1}{5}$

Probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket:

$p = P(X = 1) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 5) = \frac{3}{10} + \frac{1}{10} + \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{10} + \frac{2}{10} = \frac{6}{10} = 0.6$

0.6*100% = 60%

The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.
