1. a b c
2. a b c
3. a b c
4. a b c
5. a b c

then she eliminated 1 choice in 1 and 2, say as follows

1.    b c
2. a b 
3. a b c
4. a b c
5. a b c

Probability of answering correctly the first 2, and at least 2 or the remaining 3 is 
P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)+P(answering 1,2 and also 3,4,5 )

P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)=
P(1,2,3,4 correct, 5 wrong)+P(1,2,3,5 correct, 4 wrong)+P(1,2,4,5 correct, 3 wrong)
also P(1,2,3,4 c, 5w)=P(1,2,3,5 c 4w)=P(1,2,4,5 c 3w )
so  
P(answering 1,2 and exactly 2 of 3.4.or 5.)=3*P(1,2,3,4)=3*1/2*1/2*1/3*1/3*2/3=1/4*2/9=2/36=1/18

note: P(1 correct)=1/2
         P(2 correct)=1/2
         P(3 correct)=1/3
         P(4 correct)=1/3
         P(5 wrong) = 2/3

P(answering 1,2 and also 3,4,5 )=1/2*1/2*1/3*1/3*1/3=1/108

Ans: P= 1/18+1/108=(6+1)/108=7/108

P(> or =70) =0.65
P(Collins inside) =0.80
P(not 70) = 1-P(70) =>0.35
P(Collins inside) = 0.1
Then P(70 AND Collin inside) .65 x .8 =0.52
P( not 70 AND Collin Outside = 0.35 x 0.1=0.035
TOTAL Possibility [(70 AND Inside) OR (not 70 AND Outside):

Points (−6, 3) and (−6, −3) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two dogs at a park: A coordinate plane is shown.
Nostrana [21]

Question:

Points (−6, 3) and (−6, −3) on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two dogs at a park.There is a point at (−6, 3) labeled Dog 1. There is a point at (−6, −3) labeled Dog 2.

Which statement best describes the relationship between the positions of the two players?

A.Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

B.Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

C.Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

D. Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

Answer:

Option B: Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

Explanation:

The position of the Dog 1 is (−6, 3).

The position of the Dog 2 is (−6, -3).

From the graph, we can see that the image of Dog 1 is reflected over x-axis. Because to reflect an image over x-axis, the signs of y-coordinate must be changed.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Thus, Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

You decide to play roulette 200 times each time betting the same amount on red. you will loe money if you win on fewer than 100
Arturiano [62]
First off, your chances of red are not really 50-50. You are overlooking the 0 slot or the 00 slot which are green. So, chances of red are 18 in 37 (0 slot) or 38 (0 and 00 slots). With a betting machine, the odds does not change no trouble what has occurred before. Think through the simplest circumstance, a coin toss. If I toss heads 10 times one after the other, the chances of tails about to happen on the next toss are still on a 50-50. A betting machine has no ability, no plan, and no past. 
Chances (0 slot) that you success on red are 18 out of 37 (18 red slots), but likelihoods of losing are 19 out of 37 (18 black plus 0). For the wheel with both a 0 and 0-0 slot, the odds are poorer. You chances of red are 18 out of 38 (18 red slots win), and down are 20 out of 38 (18 black plus 0 and 00). It does not really matter on how long you play there, the probabilities would always continue the same on every spin. The lengthier you play, the more thoroughly you will tie the chances with a total net loss of that portion of a percent in accord of the house. 18 winning red slots and either 19 or 20 losing slots.
