Dave is taking a algebra ii test and comes across this question: you have two die that you will roll. you will sum up the face v

alues and record the sum in a chart. you need to complete 250 trials and find the probability of rolling a sum of 8. unfortunately, he does not have enough time to complete all 250 trials so he is going to make an educated guess. what is his guess and how did he use the law of large numbers to help him

Answer:  B.)   Dave guessed 0.14. The law of large numbers states that as the number of trials increases the experimental probability approaches the theoretical probability. He determined the theoretical probability would be  

5

36

. With 250 trials he could use the law of large numbers and expect the experimental probability to be near there.

He should guess about 34 times. 

When you are rolling two dice there are 36 probabilities. In order to get an 8, there are 5 possibilities.

2 + 6, 3 + 5, 4 + 4, 5, + 3, 6 + 2

Therefore, the chances of an 8 are 5/36. Multiplying this by 250 gives us about 34.

The law of large numbers helps because it says the more rolls that take place, the more likely we are to get close to the expected value. With 250 rolls we should get pretty close.

Which set of ordered pairs and equation for a best fit line represents data from the table?. a. (x1, y1) = (64, 135), (x2, y2) =
Marrrta [24]
Just comparing your (x, y) points to the values on the table, it looks like b) would be the quick answer. Since it states under the table to use average values within each range.
So for x=62 (the weight), we have y=122 (the iron count) which would be the average of the range between 115 and 129.

Similiarly, x=70 corresponds to y=146, which is the average of 139 and 153.
You could take the average values of your highest and lowest iron count ranges compare them to the max-min weight to get your slope. Looks like it would be (155-112)/(73-58)= 43/15= 2.8666 repeating. That would make sense with the slope in the equation listed in b) as well. <span>

HELP PLEASE SHOW STEPS I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT BUT I CAN’T.

Answer: x^{2} +23x+49

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the shaded region, you must find the area of the larger rectangle [(x+10)×(2x+5)] and subtract the area of the smaller rectangle [(x+1)×(x+1)] from it.

First, you simplify the larger rectangle's area:

(x+10)×(2x+5) = 2x^{2} +25x+50

Then, simplify the smaller rectangle's area:

(x+1)×(x+1) = x^{2} +2x+1

Finally, subtract the smaller rectangle's area from the larger rectangle's area:

(2x^{2} +25x+50) - (x^{2} +2x+1) = x^{2} +23x+49

Therefore, the final answer is x^{2} +23x+49.

I hope this helps!
