Case 1: Probabilities cannot add up to a number greater (or less) than 1. This would mean there is greater than a 100% chance of something happening which just doesn't make sense. 0.4 + 0.4 + 0.3 = 1,1
Case 2: You cannot have a negative probability. That is claiming that there is a -10% chance of an event happening, there is at the very least a 0%. Despite them "adding" up to 1, the negative probability makes no sense.
Hope I helped!
What we know:
Football field is 100 yards in length
End zones are 10 yards each in length
Perimeter between pylons is 306 2/3 yards
What we need to find:
a. Perimeter and area of one end zone
b. Perimeter and area of without end zones
c. Perimeter and area of playing field with end zones
First we need to find the measurements of the field between pylons using the perimeter of 306 2/3 yards. We already know the length is 100 yards so we need to find width (w).
P=2l + 2w
306 2/3=2 (100) + 2w
306 2/3= 200 + 2w
300 2/3-200=200-200+2w
106 2/3=2w
106 2/3/2=2/2w
53 1/3=w
a. Perimeter=2 (10)+2 (53 1/3)=126 2/3 yards
Area=10×53 1/3=533 1/3 yd²
b. Perimeter=2 (100)+2 (53 1/3)=306 2/3 yards
Area=100×53 1/3=5333 1/3 yd²
c. Perimeter=2 (120) + 2 (53 1/3)=346 2/3 yards
Area=120×53 1/3=6400 yd²
It is Constant. The cost per pound is 2.50 dollars. two would be on the x-axis, and 5 dollars would be on the y-axis. likewise, 3 would be on the x-axis, and 7.50 dollars is on the y-axis. 5 pounds would cost : $12.50
(-3,2)(1,2)...notice that the y values are the same.....when the y values are the same u have a horizontal line with a 0 slope.
IF the x values would have been the same (instead of the y values), then u would have had a vertical line with an undefined slope.
