ANSWER

2(s+175)


EXPLANATION

The total amount of garbage thrown away at the school each day is the amount of garbage thrown away by the students plus the amount of garbage thrown away by non-students.


total = lb students + lb non-students


lb students is 2s as each student throws away two pounds a day.

lb non-students is 350. Therefore, the total amount of pounds of garbage thrown away each day is


total = 2s + 350


We can factor out a 2 from this expression as each term is divisible by 2 and that is the greatest common factor. We end up with


total = 2(s+175)

Answer:

x ≈ 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The legs of an isosceles triangle are congruent , both 2x - 4 , then

x + 2x - 4 + 2x - 4 = 24 , that is

5x - 8 = 24 ( add 8 to both sides )

5x = 32 ( divide both sides by 5 )

x = 6.4 ≈ 6 ( to the nearest whole number )

Answer:

14.5 hours/14 hours 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The distance between the two cities is 7.25•100=725 because you multiply the scale distance by the scale.
  • The number hours is 725/50=14.5 hours because you divide the distance by 50 (the miles per hour).

The Law of Large Numbers states that as the number of trials of an experiment increases, the experimental probability of an even
Lena [83]

The law of large number states that , if number of trials increases in an experiment , in a fair trial where each outcome has same chance of occurring or having equal probabilities,when total number of trials  goes higher and higher the probabilities of each single outcome becomes approximately equal.→→In case of Experimental Probability

The Coin Possessed by Jake is a Magic coin.

Now Outcomes received by jake when he tosses the coin certain number of times.He flipped it 100 times, and found that it came up heads 64% of the time. He flipped it another 500 times, and it came up heads 57% of the time. He then flipped it 1000 times, and it came up heads 58% of the time. Then, he flipped it 1500 times, and it came up heads 62% of the time.

Based on the information provided , it appears that coin is not fair . It is  Unbiased.So , if we apply law of large numbers here after number of trials will go higher and higher , the chances of coming head will be more than tail i.e theoretical probability of the magic coin coming up heads is> 50%.

To test my hypothesis i have used the information provided by Jake, which shows that coin is not fair. The probability of head has more than tail i.e by 14%, 7%,8% and 12%.

Find the missing length
jasenka [17]

Answer: 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For this you will have to use pythagoras’ theorem.

The formula for the shorter side of this triangle is u²=c²-b² (or in this case u²=17²-8²).

17²=289

8²=64

The formula becomes u²=289-64 or u²=225

Then to find u on its own you have to square root 225.

The square root of 225 is 15.
