let x be the first integer
x+ 2 the second integer ( two consecutive even )
smaller integer added to three times the larger <span>x + 3 ( x+2)
</span>two less than five times the smaller <span>5x - 2</span>
x + 3 ( x+2) = 5x - 2
x+3x +6 = 5x -2
x=8
the first integer = 8
the second is x+2 =10
Answer:
We need to do difference so we can have how many numbers differ between the 2 numbers
Step-by-step explanation:
For example: 5-2=? We want to know what is the difference between the number which is 3 hope I explained it the best I can!!
Answer:
15/30 0r 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply the fractions
Complete question is;
Multiple-choice questions each have 5 possible answers, one of which is correct. Assume that you guess the answers to 5 such questions.
Use the multiplication rule to find the probability that the first four guesses are wrong and the fifth is correct. That is, find P(WWWWC), where C denotes a correct answer and W denotes a wrong answer.
P(WWWWC) =
Answer:
P(WWWWC) = 0.0819
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that each question has 5 possible answers and only 1 is correct. Thus, the probability of getting the right answer in any question is =
(number of correct choices)/(total number of choices) = 1/5
Meanwhile,since only 1 of the possible answers is correct, then there will be 4 incorrect answers. Thus, the probability of choosing the wrong answer would be;
(number of incorrect choices)/(total number of choices) = 4/5
Now, we want to find the probability of getting the 1st 4 guesses wrong and the 5th one correct. To do this we will simply multiply the probabilities of each individual event by each other.
Thus;
P(WWWWC) = (4/5) × (4/5) × (4/5) × (4/5) × (1/5) = 256/3125 ≈ 0.0819
P(WWWWC) = 0.0819
