Answer: C.) 4/27

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

One out of three cards is a winner :

P(winning) = 1 / 3

Therefore, P(not winning) = P(losing) :

1 - P(winning) = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

Probability that shenice will first win on her third try can be interpreted as:

1st try = lose, 2nd try: lose, 3rd try : win

P(losing) × p(losing) × p(winning)

(2/3) × (2/3) × (1/3)

4 / 27

Probability of first winning on third try = 4/27

Elis [28]

Sammy calculated the total amount that he deposited by <em>adding up the total amount deposited in each account.</em>

  • The Checking account is used to pay for fixed and variable essential expenses.  In this account, Sammy deposited $1,712.

  • The Cash account is used for non-essential expenses, like snacks, etc.  A total of $260 was deposited into this account.

  • The Emergency Savings account is used for both other predictable and unpredictable expenses.  A total of $340 was deposited into the account.

  • For the Vacation Savings account, it is used to carter for other long-term expenses.  A total of $50 was deposited into the account.

  • When these accounts are added up, the total deposit made by Sammy can be calculated to be $2,362 ($1,712 + $260 + $340 + $50).

Data and Calculations:

Accounts             Checking   Cash Account    Emergency     Vacations

                                                                             Savings         Savings

Expenses:

Essential (fixed)       $1,292

Essential (variable)      420

Non-essential                                  $260

Other predictable                                                   $130

Other (unpredictable)                                              210

Other (long-term)                                                                        $50

Total                       $1,712              $260             $340             $50

Thus, Sammy calculated the total amount that he deposited by adding up the total deposit in each account.

Complete the function table below for the function F(x) = x2 + 1.
VMariaS [17]
The answer is true, and let me explain this to you like this:
<span>F(x) = 4x - 6
when x = 1, F(x) = 4 * 1 - 6 = -2
when x = 2, F(x) = 4 * 2 - 6 = 2
when x = 3, F(x) = 4 * 3 - 6 = 6
when x = 4, F(x) = 4 * 4 - 6 = 10
</span><span>second row is: -2, 2, 6, 10
</span><span>differences are: 2 - (-2) = 4; 6 - 2 = 4; 10 - 6 = 4
</span>So, the <span>second row is in arithmetic progression.
Hope this is what you were looking for</span>
