we are given

$\frac{x}{7.25} =4$

Since, we have to solve for x

so, we will isolate x on anyone side

Since, 7.25 is in denominator of x

so, we will get rid of 7.25 from denominator

that's why we will multiply both sides 7.25 to get rid of denominator

so, we get

$7.25*\frac{x}{7.25} =7.25*4$

$x =29$

so,

Answer is 7.25

Answer:

The probability that Julia makes at least one successful throw is 90%

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to help Julia to answer the question correctly:

Probability that Julia misses the first shot = 50%

Probability that Julia makes the first shot = 50%

When she misses on the first shot, she misses the second shot 20% of the time. Therefore after missing the first shot, she makes the second shot 80% of the time.

Probability that Julia misses both shots = 50% * 20% = 0.5 * 0.2 = 0.1 = 10%

2. What is the probability of making at least one successful throw?

Probability of making at least one successful throw = 1 - (Probability that Julia misses both shots)

Probability of making at least one successful throw = 100% - 10%

The probability that Julia makes at least one successful throw is 90%

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

P=0.0899.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that are 5 black balls and 9 red balls in an urn. If 4 balls are drawn without replacement. We calculate the probability that exactly 3 black balls are drawn.

Therefore, we have 14 balls in an urn.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

$C_4^{14}=\frac{14!}{4!(14-4)!}=1001\\$
