Answer: the probability is 0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
We have 10 numbers:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9
Of those, the odd ones are:
1, 3, 5, 7, 9
So we have 5 odd numbers.
The probability that the outcome is an odd number is equal to the number of odd numbers divided the total number of numbers:
p = 5/10 = 0.5
For the second spin the probability is the same, p = 5/10, because the first outcome does not affect the results of the second spin.
The probability of spining an odd number both times, then is the joint probability for two times this same event:
P = (5/10)(5/10) = 0.5*0.5 = 0.25
or 25% in percent form
Answer:
<em>You would need 10 yards of fabric</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
A
evaluate f(5) and f(2)
f(5) = 5m + b and f(2) = 2m + b, hence
f(5) - f(2) = 5m + b - 2m - b = 3m
the expression simplifies to
= 2 ( cross- multiply )
3m = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )
m = 2 → A
Answer:
So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or 2.88%
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Let P(A) = Probability of irs auditing
P(A) = 2.8%
Let n = number of those who earn above 100,000
To get the odds that taxpayer would be audited, we need to first calculated the proportion of those that will be audited and those that won't.
If the probability is 2.8% then 2.8 out of 100 will be audited. That doesn't make a lot of sense since you can't have 2.8 people; we multiply the by 10/10
i.e.
Proportion, P = 2.8/100 * 10/10
P = 28/1000
The proportion of those that would not be audited is calculated as follows;
Q = 1000 - P
By substituton
Q = 1000 - 28
Q = 972
So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or P/Q
P/Q = 28/972
= 0.0288065844
= 2.88% --- Approximately
Degree of ploynominal is the largest exponent you find, which is here the 4x to the 6th. there are only two terms here.
