Answer:

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

of the 50 participants 20 of them will get drink A. This probability is 20/50 which simplified is 2/5. The other 30 participants will get drinks B, C, or D. As a fraction this is equal to 30/50 or 3/5. Therefore the probability of a participant not sampling drink A is 3/5.

Answer:

20 out of the 50 participants are assigned to consume Drink A.

However, it is asking us the probability that a participant did NOT consume Drink A, so there are 30 participants that consumed another drink.

The probability is 30/50, or 60%, that a participant did not sample Drink A.

A company is testing and comparing two candle designs. The box plots show the number of hours that each candle design lasts befo

Natalija [7]

Since these are box plots, they're based on a lot of data, and we cannot say for certain whether something will be true, but it can give us a good idea. So this means that options A & B are out, since they say 'will always', but we can never say for sure with box plots.

The boxes of the box plot represent basically the average of the data. The beginning of the box is the first quartile, the end of the box is the third quartile, and the line in the middle is the median, which is the middle of the data. Since the box in the box plot of Design A is greater than the box in the box plot of Design B, we can say it's likely that candle Design A will last longer than candle Design B, or option C.

Find the equation of a line that goes through the points (-3,5) and (5,-11)

Rasek [7]

$(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{-11}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{-11}-\stackrel{y1}{5}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{5}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{-16}{5+3}\implies \cfrac{-16}{8}\implies -2$

$\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{5}=\stackrel{m}{-2}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}) \\\\\\ y-5-2(x+3)\implies y-5=-2x-6\implies y=-2x-1$
