Answer:

The graph in the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> the total number of guests

y -----> the amount of meat

we know that

The inequality that represent this situation is equal to

y\geq \frac{1}{3}x-2

Note The inequality is "greater than or equal" because the given statement say "at least"

The solution of this inequality is the shaded area above the solid line y=\frac{1}{3}x-2

The slope of the solid line is positive

The y-intercept of the solid line is -2  

The x-intercept of the solid line is 6

therefore

The graph in the attached figure

Remember that

The values of x an y cannot be a negative number

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

a) 0.75

b) 0.0625

c) 0.1875

d) 0.375

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by first finding the probability a teacher orders 6 boxes. Since it is a four sided dice, the probability of getting a 1 is going to be 0.25.

Similarly, for any other number on the dice, the teacher orders 2 boxes. We can think of this as NOT rolling a 1. Using our previous answer, this comes out to be: 1 - 0.25 = 0.75

It should be remembered in the following answers that teachers ordering 6 or 2 boxes are not influenced by the results of other teachers. These are statistically independent events.

a) As given above, this probability is 0.75

b) The probability that both teachers order 6 boxes will be their individual probabilities multiplied. This comes out to be: 0.25 x 0.25 = 0.0625

c) Like in part (b), this is both of their probabilities multiplied:

   0.25 x 0.75 = 0.1875

d) This is nearly the same as part (c), but with a little twist. The order matters. There are two scenarios:

  1.   First teacher gets 6 boxes, and the second gets 2.
  2.   First teacher gets 2 boxes, and the second gets 2.

Both of these events have a probability of 0.1875, as shown in (c). To get the total probability of this event happening, we must add these together:

0.1875 + 0.1875 = 0.375

Suppose a basketball player has made 184 out of 329 free throws. If the player make the next two free throws, I will pay you $24
Marta_Voda [28]
Given that the player made 184 out of 329 throws, the probability of making the next throw will be:
P(x)=[Number of shots made]/[Total number of throws]
=184/329
=0.559
Thus the expected value of proposition will be:
0.599*24+0.559*12
=20.134
