Answer: 31.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Okie dokie, so if something is marked up by 20% it means, it is 120% the original number right?

So we can convert 120% into 1.2 to make solving this problem easier. :)

So if we want to find the original number, all we have to do is divide 37.5 by 1.2.

This gets us 31.25.

Two athletic teams play a series of games; the first team to win 4 games is declared the overall winner. Suppose that one of the
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

  • p=0.7103 (4-game series)
  • p=0.6480 (2-game series)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be the random variable equal the the first 4 straight wins. An overall win for the stronger team implies a negative binomial function with the parameters  n=4, p=0.6:

P(X=4)={{i-1}\choose {4-1}}0.6^40.4^{i-4},\  i=4,5,6,7

#We find probabilities for the different values of i:

P(X=4)={3\choose 3}0.6^4=0.1296\\\\P(X=5)={4\choose 3}0.6^40.4^1=0.2074\\\\P(X=6)={5\choose 3}0.6^40.4^2=0.2074\\\\P(X=4)={6\choose 3}0.6^40.4^3=0.1659

Hence, probability of the stronger team winning overall is:

=P(X=4)+P(X=5)+P(X=6)+P(X=7)\\\\=0.7103

#Define Y as the random variable for winning 2/3 games.:

P(Y=2)={1\choose 1}0.6^2=0.3600\\\\P(Y=3)={2\choose3}0.6^20.4=0.2880\\\\P(win)=0.2880+0.3600=0.6480

Hence, probability of the stronger team winning in 2 out 3 game series is 0.6480

The stronger team has a higher chance of winning in a 4-game series(0.7103>0.6480)

Find the center and radius of the circle described by the equation
Debora [2.8K]
Complete the square fr x and y's sepreatly to get into form
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²
the center is (h,k) and radius is r

so


group x's and y's seperatly
(4x²-10x)+(4y²+24y)+133/4=0
undistribute leading confident from each
4(x²-2.5x)+4(y²+6y)+133/4=0
take 1/2 of each linear confident and square it and add negative and positive inside the parenthasees
-2.5/2=-1.25 (-1.25)²=1.5625
6/2=3, 3²=9
4(x²-2.5x+1.5625-1.5625)+4(y²+6y+9-9)+133/4=0
factor perfect squares
4((x-1.25)²-1.5625)+4((y+3)²-9)+133/4=0
expand
4(x-1.25)²-6.25+4(y+3)²-36+133/4=0
4(x-1.25)²+4(y+3)²-9=0
add 9 to both sides
4(x-1.25)²+4(y+3)²=9
divide both sides by 4
(x-1.25)²+(y+3)²=9/4
(x-1.25)²+(y+3)²=(3/2)²

the center is (1.25,-3) and the radius is 1.5
