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.

Answer:

418.6

Step-by-step explanation:

you set the price to equal 300 dollars, so marking up 40% would equal taking 300 x 1.4

this equals 420, however you need to substract 1.4 because you rounded 299 to 300 giving 418.6

Answer:

-39

Step-by-step explanation:

$\left(-3\right)^3-\sqrt[3]{27}-4^3\left(\sqrt[3]{64}-\left(2\right)\left(2\right)\right)-\frac{\left(3\right)^3\left(2\right)}{6}$

$-27-3-64\left(4-4\right)-\frac{54}{6}$

$-27-3-\frac{54}{6}$

$-27-3-9$

Which gives us -39.

Lisa takes a night walk after dinner every night. She walks 1/4 mile in 2 minutes. How how does she walk in 10 minutes? (write-i

castortr0y [4]

Answer:

1.25 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Lisa takes a night walk after dinner every night.

She walks 1/4 mile in 2 minutes.

Distance = 1/4 mile

Time, t = 2 minutes

For covering 1 mile,

1/4 mile = 2 minutes

In 1 minute she will cover $\dfrac{1}{8}\ \text{mile}$

For 10 minutes, she will cover $\dfrac{10}{8}\ \text{mile}\ or\ 1.25\ \text{miles}$

So, she will cover 1.25 miles.
