Answer:

Probability of the teacher or other staff is 0.7143

Step-by-step explanation:

pr(teacher or other staff) = pr(teacher) + pr(other staff) - pr(teacher and other staff)

Total number of tickets = 1050

Number of tickets sold to teachers = 515

Number of tickets sold to other staff = 235

pr(teacher) = \frac{515}{1050}

                 = 103 \frac{2}{10}

                 = 0.4905

pr(other staff) = \frac{235}{1050}

                    = 47 \frac{2}{10}

                  = 0.2238

Since the picking of the wining ticket is mutually exclusive, then;

pr(teacher and other staff) = 0

Thus,

pr(teacher or other staff) = 0.4905 + 0.2238 - 0

                                         = 0.7143

Find the value of n<br><br> 6/n = 5/120
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

n = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

          6 / n = 5/120

         6 * 120 = 5*n

               5n = 6*120

               5n = 720

                 n = 720/5

                 n = 144

Solve for x.<br> A) -7<br> C) 6<br> B) 9<br> D) 10
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The segment BC  joining the midpoints of 2 sides of the triangle is

Half the length of the third side, that is

x + 31 = 2(x + 19)

x + 31 = 2x + 38 ( subtract x from both sides )

31 = x + 38 ( subtract 38 from both sides )

- 7 = x → A

How do I find the absolute value
pychu [463]

Absolute value of function = - 9 / 3 .

The absolute value or modulus of a real number x, denoted by |x|, is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign. Namely, |x|=x if x is a positive number, and |x|=-x if x is negative (in which case negating x makes -x positive) , and |0|=0.

For example, the absolute value of 3 is 3, and the absolute value of −3 is also 3. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero.

x ≥ 1.52 / 3 x - 1 = 2 / 3 x + 4⇒ -1 = 4 which is not possible .Now for all x ≤ 1.5- 2 /3 x + 1 = 2 / 3 x + 4⇒ 4 / 3 x = -3  x = - 9 /4 Hence absolute value = - 9 / 3 .
