Mariah has a spinner that has 10 equal sections, each containing a different number from 1 to 10. Mariah determines about how ma

ny times the spinner will land on a number that is greater than 7 in 250 spins, and her work is shown below.
P(number greater than 7)= Numbers greater than 7/ Total number of sections times number of spins = 4/10 (250) = 100

What mistake did Mariah make, if any?

She wrote a 4 instead of a 3.

There are only 3 numbers that are greater than 7. They are 8, 9, and 10. Mariah must have include 7 in her list. That is how she got 4 instead of 3.

Answer and step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 numbers greater than 7 on this spinner:  8, 9 and 10.  Mariah wrote 4 instead of 3, which makes her probability higher.  

She should have:

3/10(250) = 750/10 = 75

Mark draws a card 50 times from a standard deck of 52 cards and gets a Heart 8 times. What is the experimental probability that
Inessa [10]
<span>Experimental probability is defined as the ratio of the number of times an event occurs to the total number of trials the activity is performed

In this case the number that the event occurred is 8 and the number of trials is 50, so the ratio is 8/50 = 4/25.

Then the answer is option B: 4/25

The rectangle is three times its width.
Airida [17]

Answer:

Length= 30 in

Width= 10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x in.

Length of rectangle

= 3 (width)

= 3x

Perimeter of rectangle= 2(length) +2(width)

80= 2(3x) +2(x)

80= 6x +2x

8x= 80 <em>(</em><em>simplify</em><em>)</em>

x= 80 ÷8 <em>(</em><em>÷</em><em>8</em><em> </em><em>on</em><em> </em><em>both</em><em> </em><em>sides</em><em>)</em>

x= 10

Thus width of rectangle= 10 in

Length of rectangle

= 3(10)

= 30 in

Need help please on Pre Calculus!!! Directions: verify each identity
Juliette [100K]
You first simplify

tan(x) = cos(x)/sin(x) and cot(x) = sin(x)/cos(x)

Then you plug that in and then you simplify even more
