There are 50 tickets in a raffle bag, and 10 of the tickets belong to Gary. A ticket is chosen at random, and the ticket owner's

name is read. The ticket is mixed back into the bag. Another ticket is chosen, and the ticket owner's name is read.
What is the probability that Gary's name was read both times?

Answer:

The answer is 4%

Step-by-step explanation:

In the prompt, it says that there are 50 tickets in a raffle bag, and 10 of those tickets belong to Gary. It then says that a ticket at random, is chosen, the owner's name is read, and the ticket is mixed back into the bag. And so there are still 10/50 tickets that belong to Gary and there are still a total of 50 tickets in the raffle bag (since it was replaced). The prompt then says that another ticket was is chosen and the ticket owner's name is read. The question is asking us what is the probability of Gary's name being read twice. Now a general probability rule is that for events A and B, where A occurs before B,

 if there is a replacement,  then

P(A and B) = P(A) • P(B).  And so we'd take the original 10/50 tickets and multiply them by another 10/50 tickets, which equals 1/25, or 0.04. To convert this into a percent, you'd multiply 0.04 by 100 to get 4% our final answer.

An inequality can be formed by simply translating the problem statement to numerical expressions.

From the problem we know that 3w added with 52 hours should be equal or greater than 90 (helpful insight from the keyword "at least"). Therefore, it's inequality would look like:

3w+52>=90 (>= is used instead of ≥ for constraints in formatting)

The inequality above best models the situation.

what is the slope of the line through (1,0)(1,0)left parenthesis, 1, comma, 0, right parenthesis and (3,8)(3,8)
77julia77 [94]

The slope of the line passing through (1 , 0) and (3 , 8) is 4.

Slope, commonly represented by the letter m, is a value that describes the steepness and direction of a line. The slope of a line is also called its gradient or rate of change.

It is the vertical change in y divided by the horizontal change in x, sometimes called rise over run. The slope formula uses two points, (x_{1}, y_{1} ) and (x_{2}, y_{2} ), to calculate the change in y over the change in x.

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1} }     where

x_{1} = 1

y_{1} = 0

x_{2} = 3

y_{2} = 8

Substituting the values,

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1} } =\frac{8-0}{3-1} =\frac{8}{2}=4

Hence, he slope of the line passing through (1 , 0) and (3 , 8) is 4.

Find the length of the missing side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.
svetlana [45]

The pythagorean theorem states that the sum of the squares of two legs of a right triangle is equivalent to the hypotenuse.

So:

35^2 + b^2 = 40^2

1225 + b^2 = 1600

b^2 = 375

b = \sqrt{375}

b = 19.3649

<u>The missing side's length rounded to the nearest tenth is Option C, 19.4</u>
