Answer:

a)  3.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

The given question mixed up, below is the correct question:

The bumper car ride at the state fair has 2 red cars, 4 green cars, and 2 blue cars. Garth is first in line for the ride and is assigned a car at random.  Patty is next in line and is randomly assigned a car. Find the probability that both events A and B occur. Express your answer as a percent. If necessary, round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Calculation:

Given that the state fair has 2 red cars, 4 green cars and 2 blue cars.

There are therefore 2+4+2 = 8 cars in total.

Probability that Events A occurs P(A) = \frac{2}{8} = 4

Probability that Events B occurs P(B) = \frac{1}{7}

Probability that Events A and B occur P(A ∩ B) = \frac{2}{8} × \frac{1}{7} = \frac{2}{56} = 0.0357 = 3.57%  ≈ 3.6%

Therefore, the probability that both events A and B occur is 3.6%

Solve the quadratic by factoring.<br> x^2-5x-31=5
torisob [31]

Answer:

x =  - 4\: or \: x =  9

Step-by-step explanation:

make one side equal to zero:

{x}^{2}  - 5x - 36 = 0

find two factors that multiply to -36 and add to -5 (-9 & 4)

{x }^{2}  - 9x + 4x - 36 = 0

factorise

x(x - 9) + 4(x - 9) = 0

(x + 4)(x - 9) = 0

solve for x

x =  - 4 \: or \: x = 9

vichka [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is the third option

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if two lines are parallel we must get their slopes if the slopes are equal, the lines are parallel.

Data

A (2,2)

B (3,6)

C(0,5)

D(1,9)

Formula

slope = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1}

Process

1.- Calculate the slope of line 1

slope 1 = \frac{6 - 2}{3 - 2}

slope 1 = \frac{4}{1}

slope 1 = 4

2.- Calculate slope 2

slope 2 = \frac{9 - 5}{1 - 0}

slope 2 = \frac{4}{1}

slope 2 = 4

3.- Compare the slope

slope 1 = 4 and slope 2 = 4, both slope are equals, then the lines are parallel.
