Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Because you are only receiving $1500 and in exchange you would have to cover for this accident damage in the next year, which could be up to hundred of thousands of dollar. Sure there's a chance the your neighbor might drive safely, but the odds are far more in his favor than yours.
b) The insurance company collect payments from hundred of thousands buyers, making their cash flow up to tens of million dollar. Sure the expected value of accidents might be high but as a company they surely have capital to cover a handful of cases, if their calculation done right.
Tigers: 1 - 2/3 = .3333
Redbirds: 1 - 4/5 = .2
Bulldogs: 1 - 3/8 = .625
Titans: 1 - 1/2 = .5
The Redbirds likelyhood is lowest, therefore, they're least likely to play I'm the championship.
B is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
I find it convenient to let a graphing calculator draw the graph (attached).

If you're drawing the graph by hand, there are a couple of strategies that can be useful.
The first equation is almost in slope-intercept form. Dividing it by 2 will put it in that form:
y = 2x -4
This tells you that the y-intercept, (0, -4) is a point on the graph, as is the point that is up 2 and right 1 from there: (1, -2). A line through those points completes the graph.
__
The second equation is in standard form, so the x- and y-intercepts are easily found. One way to do that is to divide by the constant on the right to get ...
x/2 +y/3 = 1
The denominators of the x-term and the y-term are the x-intercept and the y-intercept, respectively. If that is too mind-bending, you can simply set x=0 to find the y-intercept:
0 +2y = 6
y = 6/2 = 3
and set y=0 to find the x-intercept
3x +0 = 6
x = 6/3 = 2
Plot the intercepts and draw the line through them for the graph of this equation.
___
Here, we have suggested graphing strategies that don't involve a lot of manipulation of the equations. The idea is to get there as quickly as possible with a minimum of mistakes.
Answer:
Carmen had the largest red to green apple ratio of 5 : 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Red apples : Green apples
Carmen = 20 red apples : 12 green apples
= 20 / 12
= 5 / 3 = 1.67
= 5 : 3
Dylan = 12 red apples : 10 green apples
= 12 / 10
= 6 / 5 = 1.2
= 6 : 5
Eli = 16 red apples : 20 green apples
= 16 / 20
= 4 / 5 = 0.8
= 4 : 5
Carmen had the largest red to green apple ratio of 5 : 3
The game costs 25 dollars. If 6/5 = 30 then 5/5 would be 25
