<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>The probability of selecting a defective roll followed by another defective roll = \frac{1}{35}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of rolls in a box = 15

The number of defective items = 3

Two rolls are to be selected, one after the other. The probability of selecting a defective roll followed by another defective roll = ?

The probability that the first roll is detective = \frac{3}{15}

The probability that the second roll is detective = \frac{2}{14}

Required probability = (\frac{3}{15} ) (\frac{2}{14} )

= \frac{1}{35}

Which is greater, -9/20 or -0.5?
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

If we put -\frac{9}{20} into decimal form, we get -0.45.

-0.45 is greater than -0.5, so,

<u></u>-\frac{9}{20}<u> is greater than -0.5.</u>

I don’t understand the polynomials
Serhud [2]
Polynomial comes from poly- (meaning "many") and -nomial (in this case meaning "term") ... so it says "many terms"

A polynomial can have:

constants (like 3, −20, or ½)
variables (like x and y)
exponents (like the 2 in y2), but only 0, 1, 2, 3, ... etc are allowed
that can be combined using addition, subtraction, multiplication and division ...

... except ...

... not division by a variable (so something like 2/x is right out)

So:

A polynomial can have constants, variables and exponents,
but never division by a variable.

Also they can have one or more terms, but not an infinite number of terms.

These are polynomials:

3x
x − 2
−6y2 − ( 79 )x
3xyz + 3xy2z − 0.1xz − 200y + 0.5
512v5 + 99w5
5
(Yes, "5" is a polynomial, one term is allowed, and it can be just a constant!)



These are not polynomials

3xy-2 is not, because the exponent is "-2" (exponents can only be 0,1,2,...)
2/(x+2) is not, because dividing by a variable is not allowed
1/x is not either
√x is not, because the exponent is "½" (see fractional exponents)


But these are allowed:

x/2 is allowed, because you can divide by a constant
also 3x/8 for the same reason
√2 is allowed, because it is a constant (= 1.4142...etc)
