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.

The measure of an angle in standard position is given. Find two positive angles and two negative angles that are coterminal with
Pani-rosa [81]
Notice the picture below

negative angles, are just angles that go "clockwise", namely, the same direction a clock hands move hmmm so....  and one revolution is just 2π

now, you can have angles bigger than 2π of course, by simply keep going around, so, if you go around 3 times on the circle, say "counter-clockwise", or from right-to-left, counter as a clock goes, 3 times or 3 revolutions will give you an angle of 6π, because 2π+2π+2π is 6π

now... say... you have this angle here... let us find another that lands on that same spot

by simply just add 2π to it :)  

\bf \cfrac{7}{6}+2=\cfrac{19}{6}\qquad thus\qquad \cfrac{7\pi} {6}+2\pi =\cfrac{19\pi }{6}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{19\pi }{6}\impliedby co-terminal\ angle

now, that's a positive one
and  \bf \cfrac{7}{6}-2=-\cfrac{5}{6}\qquad thus\qquad \cfrac{7\pi} {6}-2\pi =-\cfrac{5\pi }{6}
\\\\\\
-\cfrac{5\pi }{6}\impliedby \textit{is also a co-terminal angle}

to get more, just keep on subtracting or adding 2π

7,16,8,27,9 what number continues this pattern
Aloiza [94]
The sequence seems to be that you add 1 and then multiply by 2, and then add 1 and multiply by 3, so I would assume you do 9 + 1 = 10, and then multiply by 4 to get 40 as your next number. I hope this helps!
