We know, Probability = Favorable outcome / Total Outcome
Here, P = 1/20
Total Outcome = 500

Substitute their values, 
1/20 = x / 500
x = 500/20
x = 25

In short, Your Answer would be 25 Tickets

Hope this helps!

The two-way table shows the number of books of each type in Eliza's home ​what is the probability that a randomly selected refer
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

B. 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the definition of the probability

Pr=\dfrac{\text{Number of all favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of all possible outcomes}}

You have to find the probability that a randomly selected reference book is hard cover. Hence, from the table

  • Number of all possible outcomes = Number of Reference books = 25
  • Number of all favorable outcomes = Number of Hardcover Reference books = 10

So, the probability is

Pr=\dfrac{10}{25}=\dfrac{40}{100}=0.4

A rock is launched from a cannon. After 1 second, the rock is 58 feet in the air; after 2 seconds, it is 112 feet in the air. Us
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: This is the quadratic function:

h(x)=ax²+bx+c

We have two points:

(1,58)

(2,112)

Now, we calculate this quadratic funtion.

we assume that h(0)=0

Therefore:

a(0)²+b(0)+c=0

c=0

(1,58)

a(1)²+b(1)=58

a+b=58  (1)

(2,112)

a(2)²+b(2)=112

4a+2b=112

2a+b=56  (1)

With the equations (1) and (2) we make a system of equations:

a+b=58

2a+b=56

we can solve this system of equations by reduction method.

-(a+b=58)

2a+b=56

---------------------

a=-2

-2(a+b=58)

2a+b=56

-------------------

      -b=-60  ⇒  b=60

The function is:

h(x)=ax²+bx+c

h(x)=-2x²+60x

Now find the height, in feet, of the rock after 10 seconds in the air.

h(10)=-2(10)²+60(10)

h(10)=-200+600=400

Answer: 400 ft.
