The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

Step-by-step explanation:

The probabilities of occurrence and non-occurrence of an event add up to one.

If p is the probability that an even will happen and q is the probability that it will not happen

Then

$p+q=1$

Here,

Probability of surviving = p = 0.097

Probability of not surviving = q = ?

$0.097 + q = 1\\q = 1 - 0.097\\q = 0.903$

The probability of not surviving a head-on car accident is: 0.903

At which points does the graph of f(x)=2x−4 cross the x-axis and y-axis?

blagie [28]

crosses x-axis at (2, 0 ) and y-axis at (0, - 4 )

To find where the graph crosses the x and y axes ( intercepts )

• let x = 0, in the equation for y- intercept

• let y = 0, in the equation for x- intercept

x = 0 : y = 0 - 4 = - 4 ⇒ (0, - 4 )

y = 0 : 2x - 4 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 4 ⇒ x = 2 ⇒ (2, 0 )

8.1 liters to meters

Wittaler [7]

The US equivalent of "liters to meters" would be something like
"quarts to yards", which is equally meaningless.

Liters and meters don't even measure the same thing. Liters describe
volume, whereas meters describe length or distance. They don't convert
to each other .

If volume units could be converted to length units, then you (or somebody
with a slightly better grasp of his math) would be able to figure out how many
inches of gas he put into his car last week, and the cost of a foot of milk.
