When you first pick a ticket, there are 2 winning tickets and 40 total tickets. This means that there is a 2/40 chance of your ticket being a winning one. This fraction can be reduced to 1/20.
After this, there will be 1 winning ticket left and 39 total tickets. There is a 1/39 chance of the next ticket being a winning one. We multiply these two fractions together to get our answer. 1/20 * 1/39 = 1/780, so there is a 1/780 chance of having 2 winning tickets.
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
In option c, the first block is divided into 3 pieces where 2 parts are shaded whereas the second block is divided into 6 pieces where 3 parts are shaded
For both to be equivalent, both of them should be the same
2/3 = x/6
x = 4
4 pieces should be shaded in in the second block to be equal to the first one, in the diagram only 3 parts are shaded thus the answer is c
Basically, you are looking for the ARC SINE of .994 which is
83.72 Degrees

Answers: Angle A is 36 degrees, angle C is 54 degrees
=================================================================
Work Shown:
The angles A and C are complementary, meaning they add to 90 degrees.
(Angle A) + (Angle C) = 90
(2x-4) + (2x+14) = 90
(2x+2x)+(-4+14) = 90
4x+10 = 90
4x+10-10 = 90-10 .... subtract 10 from both sides
4x = 80
4x/4 = 80/4 ..... divide both sides by 4
x = 20
If x = 20, then,
angle A = 2x-4 = 2*20-4 = 40-4 = 36 degrees
angle C = 2x+14 = 2*20+14 = 40+14 = 54 degrees
Note how A+C = 36+54 = 90 which helps confirm our answers.
Answer:
The number of students who liked the book was 64.
Step-by-step explanation:
After reading a book for English class, 100 students were asked whether or not they enjoyed it.
Now, given that nine twenty-fifths of the class did not like the book.
So, 
of the whole class did not like the book.
Then, the fraction of the class who did like the book was 
.
Therefore, the number of students who liked the book was 
. (Answer)
