How to calculate a probability

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lelu [443]3 years ago
6 0
Probability is calculated by comparing the odds to a certain event occurring to the number of possible events.

P=\frac{possibility-of-an-event-occuring}{number-of-total-outcomes}

For example, take a six-sided dice number 1-6 on each side. The probability of rolling a 4 would be1 in 6 or 1/6. This is because of the six possible outcomes, rolling a 4 is only one of them.

P(4)=1/6

Now take the same dice. The probability of rolling an even number is 3/6. To see why, lets look at the total possible outcomes:

1
2
3
4
5
6

Of the 6 possibilities, 3 are even numbers.

P(even)=3/6 or 1/2

What is the correct interpretation of the point (250, 0)? The average price per ticket is $250. The minimum price per ticket is
Brut [27]

The point (250,0) of the graph represents that the average price per ticket is $250.

Given to us

x is the price the passenger paid

f(x) is the positive percent difference

<h3>What is the correct interpretation of the point (250, 0)?</h3>

We know that a coordinate is written in the form of (x, y), therefore, the point (250, 0) represents that the price of the ticket is 250, while the 0 in the coordinate represents that there is no percentage difference. Since the point (250,0) is the mid-value of the x-axis on the graph, we can say that $250 is the average price of the ticket.

Hence, the point (250,0) of the graph represents that the average price per ticket is $250.

85% of 2500m pls calculate this
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

2,125m

Step-by-step explanation:

85% = 85/100

85/100 = x/2500m

Solve by cross multiplying

85(2500) = 100(x)

212,500 = 100x

Divide by 100 on both sides

x = 2,125m

Hope this helps :)
