Answer: 259/260 or 0.99615 (depending on which answer format your teacher wants)

There are 10 numbers in the set {0, 1, 2, ..., 9}. There are 26 letters in the set {A, B, C, ..., Z}. Multiply those values: 10*26 = 260. So there are 260 ways to pick a number followed by a letter. One example is 7P.

There is only one way Matthew can get the correct answer, and there are 260 - 1 = 259 ways to get the wrong answer. We divide 259 over 260 to get the probability of getting the incorrect answer, which is 259/260.

If you need this fraction in decimal form, then use a calculator to find that 259/260 = 0.99615 approximately

Convert the following to standard form <br><br>y=2/5 x - 1/3​
Afina-wow [57]

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • y = 2/5x - 1/3

<u>To </u><u>Find</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

  • To convert the given equation into standard form.

<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

As we know that the standard form of the line is ,

\sf\longrightarrow ax + by + c = 0

So the given equation is ,

\sf\longrightarrow y = 2/5x -1/3

\sf\longrightarrow y = 6x - 5/15

\sf\longrightarrow 15y = 6x - 5

\sf\longrightarrow 6x -15y -5 = 0

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> required</u><u> </u><u>equation</u><u> of</u><u> the</u><u> line</u><u> is</u><u> </u><u>6</u><u>x</u><u> </u><u>-15y-5=</u><u>0</u><u>.</u>

0.24 times 0.4<br> Equals
Komok [63]

That would be 0.24(0.4). First, estimate the result: 0.24 is about 1/4, and (1/4)(0.4) is about 0.1.

0.24(0.4) = 0.096 (which agrees with the estimated answer, 0.1).
