Complete question is;

Many states run lotteries to raise money. A website advertises that it knows "how to increase YOUR chances of Winning the Lottery." They offer several systems and criticize others as foolish. One system is called Lucky Numbers. People who play the Lucky Numbers system just pick a "lucky" number to play, but maybe some numbers are luckier than others. Let's use a simulation to see how well this system works. To make the situation manageable, simulate a simple lottery in which a single digit from 0 to 9 is selected as the winning number. Any value can be​ picked, but for this​ exercise, pick 1 as the lucky number. What proportion of the time do you​ win?

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that To make the situation manageable, simulate a simple lottery in which a single digit from 0 to 9 is selected as the winning number.

This means the total number of single digits that could possibly be a winning one is 10.

Since we are told that only 1 can be picked, thus;

Probability of winning is; 1/10 = 0.1 or 10%

Korvikt [17]
This is a permutations problem. There are only 7 comics you can move into different time slots, the 8th one being fixed in that last position. So you can look at it this way:
For the 1st position, you can choose from all 7 people. Once you've picked that one, you have 6 people to choose from for the 2nd position, and similarly for the remaining ones . This gives you 7x6x5x4x3x2x1 = 5040 ways to arrange them. And the last comic stays in the same position all the time so does not change this number. Make sense? If you need to demonstrate it to yourself, use a smaller number of comics, like 3 or 4, and write out the combinations to see that it works.

Jesse has a storage container in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The volume of the container is 43.875 cubic meters, the
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The height is 2.25 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a right rectangular prism is the product of the length, width, and height. So it would be V=w*l*h.

Because you have been given the values of the volume, width, and length, you can plug in those values into the equation to find the height. It should look like this: 43.875=5 * 3.9 * h

Then you can divide both sides of the equation by 5 * 3.9.

So... 43.875/(5*3.9)=h

therefore h= 2.25.

hope this explanation makes sense!

yarga [219]

Answer:

x^3-1

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=g(x)-1 since was shifted down 1 unit                                        x^3-1

f(x)=g(x)+1 would have been a shift up of 1 unit                             x^3+1

f(x)=g(x-1) shifted right 1 unit                                                            (x-1)^3

f(x)=g(x+1) shifted left one unit                                                        (x+1)^3

Anyways the answer is f(x)=x^3-1

Answer:

Option C i.e. 2 and 9, constants have a fixed value is a correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In algebra, a constant is basically a fixed value.

Sometimes, a constant is a number for a letter such as a, b, or c for a fixed number.

For example: in ''2x+7=3'', 7 and 3 are constants.

  • <em>Please note that the number with variable x in the term is a coefficient.</em>

<em />

In our case:

Given the equation

3x+2=9

Therefore, 2 and 9 are constants, having a fixed value.

Thus, option C i.e. 2 and 9, constants have a fixed value is a correct option.
