The rate of separation = 25 + 15 = 40 mph

speed = distance / time

40 = 30 / t

t = 30/40 hour = 45 minutes

Its C.

Answer:

The change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)

Step-by-step explanation:

Analysing the question one statement at a time.

Before the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space is:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3\}$

And the probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{6}$

$P(1) = \frac{1}{3}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(2) = \frac{1}{2}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{6}$

P(Odd Number) is then calculated as:

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{6}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{6}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$

After the face with 3 is loaded to be twice likely to come up.

The sample space becomes:

$S = \{1,1,2,2,2,3,3\}$

The probability of each is:

$P(1) = \frac{n(1)}{n(s)}$

$P(1) = \frac{2}{7}$

$P(2) = \frac{n(2)}{n(s)}$

$P(2) = \frac{3}{7}$

$P(3) = \frac{n(3)}{n(s)}$

$P(3) = \frac{1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = P(1) + P(3)$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2}{7} + \frac{1}{7}$

Take LCM

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{2+1}{7}$

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$

Comparing P(Odd Number) before and after

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{1}{2}$ --- Before

$P(Odd\ Number) = \frac{3}{7}$ --- After

<em>We can conclude that the change to the face 3 affects the value of P(Odd Number)</em>

maria [59]

40 players multiplied by 30 teams = 1,200 players in the MLB
53 players multiplied by 32 teams = 1,696 players in the NFL.
1,696 - 1,200 = 496

There are 496 more players in the NFL then in the MLB.

A group of 25 students want to see a drake concert. Tickets for members of drakes fan club cost $20 and tickets for no members c

Gwar [14]

<span>If you would like to know how many of each type of ticket were sold, you can calculate this using the following two equations:

a ... the number of drakes fan club tickets
s ... the number of no members tickets

$550 = a * $20 + s * $25 ... 550 = 20 * a + 25 * s
a + s = 25 ... a = 25 - s
__________________
</span>550 = 20 * a + 25 * s

<span> 550 = 20 * (25 - s) + 25 * s</span>

550 = 20 * 25 - 20 * s + 25 * s

550 - 20 * 25 = 5 * s

550 - 500 = 5 * s /5

s = 50 / 5

s = 10 tickets

<span>a = 25 - s = 25 - 10 = 15 tickets</span>

<span>Result: There were 15 drakes fan club and 10 no members tickets sold.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

please let me know if I'm wrong

but I learned that you don't do 4×2 you have to multiply 4 twice by itself so it would be 16 because 4×4=16
