Answer:

Consider the complete question is,

'The odds in favor of frank McKinney winning a hot dog eating contest are 2:9,

  • Determine the probability that Frank will win the contest,
  • Determine the probability that Frank will not win the contest'

Solution :

We know that,

Odds in favor : the ratio of the number of ways that an outcome can occur compared to how many ways it cannot occur.

We have,

\frac{\text{Number of ways of winning the contest}}{\text{Number of ways of not wining the contest}}=\frac{2}{9}

So, total outcomes = 2 + 9 = 11,

\text{Probability}=\frac{\text{Favourable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Thus, the probability that Frank will win the contest = \frac{2}{11}

And,

The probability that Frank will win the contest = \frac{9}{11}

Answer:

1. 18.2 %

2. 81.8 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information is missing:

  1. <em>Determine the probability that Frank will win the contest</em>
  2. <em>Determine the probability that Frank will not win the contest</em>

The odds are 2:9, that means 2 favorable outcomes and 9 unfavorable outcomes, which means that the total possible outcomes are 9+2 = 11

To probability of winning is: favorable outcomes/total possible outcomes  = 2/11 = 0.182 or 18.2%

To probability of not winning is: unfavorable outcomes/total possible outcomes  = 9/11 = 0.818 or 81.8%

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

2^3·2^2 = 2^3+2 = 2^5  

Step-by-step explanation:

Diego was trying to write 2^3 · 2^2

He wrote  2^3·2^2 = 2^3*2 = 2^6  

But this is wrong because when bases are same exponents are added.

This is the law of exponents.

The correct form would be

2^3·2^2 = 2^3+2 = 2^5  

For understanding it better we can write it like this

2^3·2^2 =

There are 3 two and 2 twos .When totaled there are 5 two not 6 twos.

sergey [27]

Answer: 2, 2, 2, 5, 13, 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the math in order to find the prime factorization

6760 ÷ 2 = 3380

3380 ÷ 2 = 1690

1690 ÷ 2 = 845

845 ÷ 5 = 169

169 ÷ 13 = 13

13 ÷ 13 = 1

Svet_ta [14]
A semicircle's perimeter is half the perimeter of the complete circle.

The perimeter of the complete circle is its circumference which is found by the equation: πD.

Then the equation of the perimeter of the semicircle is πD/2

In this case D = 24 in, then the perimeteir is π (24in/2) = 12π in ≈ 37.7 in

Answer: The exact length is 12π inches and the approximate length is 37.7 inches
