Answer:

D.1/64

B.1 in 12

A.64%

Step-by-step explanation:

Each dial has 4 letters and only one of them is correct; the probability to choose the correct one is then 1/4. Selecting a letter in each dial is independent, then the probability of guessing the right combination in one try is 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/64

8% means a probability of 8/100 or an odds of 8 in 100. Dividing each term by 8 we get 8/8 = 1 in 100/8 = 12.5, which can be rounded to 1 in 12

80% means a probability of 80/100 = 0.8. Given that the 2 free-throws are independent, the probability that he makes both is 0.8*0.8 = 0.64 or 64%

Answer:

x > -6

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x - 4 > 8

collect like terms

-2x > 8 + 4

-2x > 12

Divide both sides by -2, we will have

x > 12/-2

x > -6

Whole page for 81! Good luck!
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

Prime number: A prime number has factor of only 1 and itself.

Ex: 3: 1 and 3 are the only ways to compose 3.

A whole number that has factors other than 1 and itself is called a composite number.

Ex: 8: the factors of 8 include 1,2,4,8

Circle 5,7,2,19,3,11

Box 18,20,22,16,15,30,26,38,45,10,21,6,14

To determine the prime factorization of a number, you must break down a number into its factors. (im not sure?)

Continute until all of the factors are (im not sure)

Prime factorization is written exponential form (im not quite sure)

30= 2x3x5

30= 2^1 3^1 5^1

24=2 × 2 × 2 × 3

24= 2^3 x 3

sorry idrk if they are all right

vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

After adding 88 red marbles, there are 50 blue marbles out of the 204 marbles total.

Let the number of blue marbles to be added be x.

\frac{50+x}{204+x}=\frac{5}{12} \\ \\ 600+12x=1020+5x \\ \\ 420=7x \\ \\ x=60

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This graph represents the inequality x < 2. you may be confused as to why the answer is not x ≤ 2, but the circle at the start of the line is not shaded in. This tells us that an answer to this inequality cannot be x
