Answer:
1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of selecting a red counter :
Number of red counter / total number of counters
5 / (5 + 3) = 5 /8 = 0.625
Probability of selecting a blue counter = 0.375
Let number of red counters :
0, 1 or 2
0 red counters :
Expected value = x * p(x)
0 + (0.625*1) + (0.390625 * 2)
0 + 0.625 + 0.78125 = 1.40625
Expected number of red counters = 1.4
Answer:
C) -9.6
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 55 by 5. get 11 times that by 4. you're welcome
First question:
1. Set equations equal to each other so 5x-9=2x+6
2. Put x's on one side so that 3x=15
3. Divide by 3 so that x=15
4. Substitute 15 in for x so that y=2(15)+6
5. Solve for y so that y=36
6. Thus the equations intersect at (15,36)
Second question:
1. Since for lines y=mx+b, and m=slope=3 you only need to write an equation with slope 3
2. y=3x+b, b can be any number
