Answer:

1) 0.1667

2) 0.8333

3) 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that 3 is observed on the first trial.

Let B be the event that at least two trials are required to observe a 3

a) A six-sided die has 6 possible outcomes of 1,2,3,4,5,6

3 is one of the six possible outcomes

P(A) = no of favourable outcomes /no of possible outcomes

P(A) = 1/6 = 0.1667

b) The event of requiring at least two trials to observe a 3 is the event of not observing a 3 on the first trial.

P(B) = P(A')

P(A')= 1 - P(A)

P(B) = 1 - 1/6

= 5/6 = 0.8333

c) P(AnB) = P(A) + P(B)

= 1/6 + 5/6

= 6/6 = 1

Annaliza's car is stopped at a stoplight. She gradually increases her speed until she reaches the speed limit. She travels at th
Hoochie [10]

Every time that she stopped, the value of the speed is 0, the speed limit is the maximum represented in the graph and when she travels at this speed for a while the graph is a horizontal line.

So she starts at 0, then increases her speed until a limit then she drives at this speed for a while which is represented by a horizontal line. then, she has to slow to a stop, which means she goes back to 0, later increases her speed until the limit, drives a while until she finds a stop sign, represented by a horizontal line, and then goes to 0.

In conclusion, the graph that represents the journy is the fourth graph.

Train a And train b leave Central Station at the same time they travel the same speed but in opposite direction with a train a h
kramer

Answer:

Both trains are traveling at 90 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the rate is the same for both trains, and we know that the distance traveled by train a plus the distance traveled by train b equals 585 miles.

We will use Distance=Rate* Time formula to solve this problem.

Train A: D_a=R*2.5 (Using 2.5 instead of 2 and 1/2)

Train B: D_b=R*4

We can set an equation to solve for rate R of trains as:

D_a+D_b=585

2.5R+4R=585

6.5 R=585

R=\frac{585}{6.5}

R=90

Therefore, rate of both train a and train b is 90 miles per hour.

Which of these numbers can be classified as both a real number and a rational
sergeinik [125]
A rational number is a number that has a decimal place that does end:
1/2 = 0.5
√5 = 2.23606...

A real number is a number with a decimal place, so...
1/2 fits both categories

Hope this helps! :)
