Odds of an event occurring given probability 1/5

Mathematics
1 answer:
umka21 [38]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability = successes / all events

Odds = successes / failures

If the probability is 1/5, then there's 1 success for every 4 failures.

So the odds are 1/4.

First to get the equation you knew to understand one thing about perpendicular lines. The slope of the line is the opposite reciprocal of the perpendicular lines or the new slope is m = 10.

Then you use the formula
y = mx + b
you plug in your values from the point and the new slope.
(1,5) with new slope m
5= 10(1)+b
5-10=b
-5 = b
then make your new equation
y = 10x -5
that's your line that goes through point (1,5) and is perpendicular to the line given

Please help me thanks

Answer:

16.7

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2.

a = 11

c = 20

11^2 + b^2 = 20^2

121 + b^2 = 400

b^2 = 279

b = sqrt(279) = 16.7

MATH HELP!!! 100PTS!!!

Answer:

x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given functions</u>:

  p(x)=2x-4

  r(x)=\dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}

Solve for p(x) = r(x):

\begin{aligned}p(x) & = r(x)\\\implies 2x-4 & = \dfrac{6x-1}{9x+1}\\(2x-4)(9x+1)&=6x-1\\18x^2+2x-36x-4&=6x-1\\18x^2-40x-3&=0\end{aligned}

As the found quadratic equation cannot be factored, use the Quadratic Formula to solve for x:

<u>Quadratic Formula</u>

x=\dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}\quad\textsf{when }\:ax^2+bx+c=0

Therefore:

a=18, \quad b=-40, \quad c=-3

Substitute the values of a, b and c into the <u>quadratic formula</u> and solve for x:

\begin{aligned}\implies x & =\dfrac{-(-40) \pm \sqrt{(-40)^2-4(18)(-3)} }{2(18)}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{1816}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4 \cdot 454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm \sqrt{4}\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{40 \pm2\sqrt{454}}{36}\\\\& =\dfrac{20 \pm\sqrt{454}}{18}\end{aligned}

Therefore, the solutions are:

x =\dfrac{20 +\sqrt{454}}{18}, \quad \dfrac{20 -\sqrt{454}}{18}
