Answer in fraction form = 1/20

Answer in decimal form = 0.05

Answer in percent form = 5%

These are three ways to express the same thing

=============================================================

Explanation:

Assume the gumball machine only has 5 gumballs, one of each color. The probability of getting yellow is 1/5 since there is one that is yellow out of 5 total.

The probability of getting a lion rubber band is 1/4 for similar reasoning as above.

Because the two events (getting yellow, getting a lion) are independent, this means we can multiply the two probabilities to get (1/5)*(1/4) = 1/20

Use your calculator to see that 1/20 = 0.05 which converts to 5% when you move the decimal point over 2 spots to the right.

Answer:

{3,-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

m^2 -2m -3=0

Using the zero product property

m-3 = 0  m+1 =0

m=3        m=-1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that Z is a standard normal variate with mean =0, and std dev =1

a) z-score separates the highest 10% from the rest of the scores

= 90th percentile = 1.282

b) z-score separates the lowest 30% from the rest of the scores

= 30th percentile = -0.5244

c) z-score separates the lowest 40% from the rest of the scores

= 40th percentile = -0.2533

d) z-score separates the lowest 20% from the rest of the score

=20th percentile = -0.8416
