Answer:
4/35 lottery is easier to win.
Step-by-step explanation:
For the 5/48 lottery, the winning probability is 
≈0.1042
For the 4/35 lottery, the winning probability is 
≈ 0.1143
Since > , the lottery where one chooses 4 of the numbers 1 through 35 is easier to win.
Answer:
For #2: It's C. 17 nickels and 15 quarters.
Step-by-step explanation:
17*5= 85
15*25= 375
375+85= 460
add in the decimal:
17* 5 cents= $.85
15* 25 cents= $3.75
$3.75+ $.85= $4.60
The explicit formula for arithmetic sequence is:
an=a+(n-1)d
where:
a=first term
d=common difference
given:
a3=22
a(17)=-20
substituting this in our equation we get:
22=a+(3-1)d
22=a+2d
a=22-2d........i
also:
-20=a+(17-1)d
-20=a+16d.....ii
but substituting i in ii we get:
-20=22-2d+16d
-20-22=14d
-42=14d
d=-3
but:
a=22-2d
a=22-2(-3)
a=28
thus the formula will be:
an=28-3(n-1)
thus the first term will be 28
the 2nd term will be:
a2=28-3(2-1)
a2=25
the 3rd term will be:
a3=28-3(3-1)
a3=28-6
a3=22
a4=28-3(4-1)
a4=28-9
a4=15
a5=28-3(5-1)
a5=28-3(4)
a5=28-12
a5=15
Answer:
t = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
3 months ------ 4500
6 months ------ x
3/6 = 4500/x
cross multiplation:
3x =27000
x = 9000,or we should have just doubled the wages, since the time doubled
3 months ------ 4500
5 months ------ y
3/5 = 4500/y
3y = 22500
y = 7500
3 months ------- 4500
t months -------- 19500
3/t = 4500/19500 = 3/13
3t = 39
t = 13
Answer:
18
Step-by-step explanation:
180-160 = 20 which equals the exterior angle
the sum of exterior angles is 360 so 360/20 = the number of sides as there is an exterior angle for every side
360/20 = 18
