15 POINTS AND WILL MARK BRAINLIEST Help?? Pleasee
Rom4ik [11]

The <em>experimental probability</em> is calculated based on the results of the experiment; since the name Ted was chosen 26 times out of 123, the experimental probability is \boxed{\frac{26}{123}}.

Typically, the <em>theoretical probability </em>assumes that events are chosen randomly; since the name Ted is one of the 6 in the hat, the theoretical probability is \boxed{\frac{1}{6}}.

If we <em>increased</em> the number of names in the hat, we would expect both the experimental and theoretical probability to decrease, since there are now more names to choose from. Similarly, if we <em>decreased</em> the number of names in the hat, the experimental and theoretical probability would increase.

21r-7-r+5=-52 solve for r
malfutka [58]

Answer:

r = - 2.5

r=-2\frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

21r - 7 - r + 5 = - 52

20r - 2 = - 52

20r - 2 + 2 = - 52 + 2

20r = - 50

20r ÷ 20 = - 50 ÷ 20

r = - 2.5

Solve the system of equations and choose the correct answer from the list of options.
Igoryamba

Answer:

x = -6/5

y = -8/5

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = -4

Y = 3x + 2

Substitute the second equation into the first equation

2x + 3x+2 = -4

Combine like terms

5x +2 = -4

Subtract 2 from each side

5x+2-2=-4-2

5x = -6

Divide by 5

5x/5 = -6/5

x = -6/5

Now we need to find y

y = 3x+2

y = 3(-6/5)+2

y = -18/5 + 10/5

y = -8/5

What is the solution to this inequality: -4(3x-5)&lt;2(3x+4)​
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

x > 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

-4(3x - 5) < 2(3x + 4)​

Divide both sides by 2.

-2(3x - 5) < 3x + 4

Distribute on the left side.

-6x + 10 < 3x + 4

Subtract 3x from both sides.

-9x + 10 < 4

Subtract 10 from both sides.

-9x < - 6

Divide both sides by -9. Remember that when you divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, the inequality sign changes direction.

x > (-6)/(-9)

x > 6/9

x > 2/3
