Answer:
a) 0.75
b) 0.0625
c) 0.1875
d) 0.375
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's start by first finding the probability a teacher orders 6 boxes. Since it is a four sided dice, the probability of getting a 1 is going to be 0.25.
Similarly, for any other number on the dice, the teacher orders 2 boxes. We can think of this as NOT rolling a 1. Using our previous answer, this comes out to be: 1 - 0.25 = 0.75
It should be remembered in the following answers that teachers ordering 6 or 2 boxes are not influenced by the results of other teachers. These are statistically independent events.
a) As given above, this probability is 0.75
b) The probability that both teachers order 6 boxes will be their individual probabilities multiplied. This comes out to be: 0.25 x 0.25 = 0.0625
c) Like in part (b), this is both of their probabilities multiplied:
0.25 x 0.75 = 0.1875
d) This is nearly the same as part (c), but with a little twist. The order matters. There are two scenarios:
- First teacher gets 6 boxes, and the second gets 2.
- First teacher gets 2 boxes, and the second gets 2.
Both of these events have a probability of 0.1875, as shown in (c). To get the total probability of this event happening, we must add these together:
0.1875 + 0.1875 = 0.375
Answer:
<em>The correct option is: C. </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
The two angles of the triangle are given as 60° and 60°
As the sum of all three angle in any triangle is always 180°, so the measure of the third angle will be: 180°-(60°+60°) = 180° - 120° = 60°
Now each angle of the triangle is 60°, it means the triangle is equilateral.
The base of the triangle is given as 12. So, the length of each side will be 12.
That means, the value of
Now in the left right triangle.....
So, the value of
14000+7x=35x (x being the number of books) solve for x and you have your answer. 14000=35x-7x=28x therefore x=14000/28=500 so he needs to sell 500 books before he breaks even.
He uses 15 gallons. Because 270/6 = 45. Meaning he drives 45 miles per gallon. So 675/45=15. 15 gallons he will need to use to drive 675 miles.
Answer:
x = 8, y = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Equating corresponding x and y coordinates , then
- y = - x + 5 ( multiply through by - 1 )
y = x - 5 → (1)
2x - 5y = 1 → (2)
Substitute y = x - 5 into (2)
2x - 5(x - 5) = 1 ← distribute and simplify left side
2x - 5x + 25 = 1
- 3x + 25 = 1 ( subtract 25 from both sides )
- 3x = - 24 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
x = 8
Substitute x = 8 into (1) for corresponding value of y
y = 8 - 5 = 3
