The probability that a region prone to hurricanes will be hit by a hurricane in any single year is one tenth or 0.1

P(at least one) = 1 - P(none in five years)

-----

= 1 - 0.90^5

= 1 - 0.59049

=0.40951 or 0.41.

41% probability that there will be a hurricane at least once in the next 5​ years.

Systems of equations with different slopes and different y-intercepts have one solution?​
Artemon [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The systems of linear equations can have:

1. No solution: When the lines have the same slope but different y-intercept. This means that the lines are parallel and never intersect, therefore, the system of equations has no solution.

2. One solution: When the lines have different slopes and intersect at one point in the plane. The point of intersection will be the solution of the system

3. Infinitely many solutions: When the lines have the same slope and the y-intercepts are equal. This means that the equations represents the same line and there are infinite number of solution.

Therefore, based on the explained above, the conclusion is: Systems of equations with different slopes and different y-intercepts never have more than one solution.

Noah bought 4 tacos and paid $6. At this rate how many tacos could he buy for 15$
disa [49]
Answer: 10 tacos

If Noah could get 4 tacos for $6, that means he got one taco for $1.5. Then you do 15/1.5. This gives you 10.

15 points I need help plz ASAP
Yuri [45]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Linear:</u>

1. During the spring, the grass in Gianna's yard grew \frac{1}{2} inch per week.

Equation: y=\frac{1}{2}x, where x is the number of spring weeks, y inches is the height of the grass after x weeks.

2. Rita babysits. She worked 2 hours and earned $24. She worked 3 hours and earned $36.

Equation: y=12x, where x is the number of hours, y is the amount Rita earned in x hours.

<u>Exponential:</u>

1. The population of the town was 25,000 in 1980. Then the population increased by \frac{1}{2}\% per year.

Equation: y=25,000\cdot (1+0.005)^x, where x is the number of years, y is the population after x years passed since 1980.

2. A car was worth $18,500 when it was new. Then the value decreased 18% per year.

Equation: y=18,500\cdot (1-0.18)^x, where x is the number of years, y is the car price after x years passed.

<u>Neither linear nor exponential:</u>

Albert went on a hike. After 1 hour, he had hiked 4 miles; after 2 hours he had hiked 7 miles; after 3 hours he had hiked 11 miles.

The differences 7 - 4 = 3, 11 - 7 = 4 are different, so the function is not linear. Also it is not exponential, becayse each next number of miles is not multiplied the previous number of miles by some number.
