Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The admission to the fair is $5 and the cost per ride is 50 cents.

Let the number of rides that he can go on be x

If one ride costs 50 cents, x rides will cost 50×x = 50x cents. Converting 50 cents to dollar, it becomes 50/100 = $0.5.

So x rides will cost $0.5x

If his parents gave him $20, he will pay $5 to be admitted into the fair. He would be left with 20- 5 = $15

The equation to find how many rides he can go on will be

0.5x = 15

Since one ride costs $0.5

x rides cost $15

x = 15/0.5 = 30

He can go on 30 rides

Sholpan [36]

Answer and explanation:

Given : A driving exam consists of 29 ​multiple-choice questions. Each of the 29 answers is either right or wrong. Suppose the probability that a student makes fewer than 6 mistakes on the exam is 0.26 and that the probability that a student makes from 6 to 20 ​(inclusive) mistakes is 0.53.

Let X be the number of mistake

P(X

P(6\leq X\leq 20)=0.53

To find : The probability of each of the following outcomes.

a) A student makes more than 20 mistakes

i.e. P(X>20)

P(X>20)=1-P(X\leq 20)

P(X>20)=1-(P(X\leq 5)+P(6\leq X\leq 20))

P(X>20)=1-(0.26+0.53)

P(X>20)=1-(0.79)

P(X>20)=0.21

b. A student makes 6 or more mistakes

i.e. P(X\geq 6)=1-P(X

P(X\geq 6)=1-0.26

P(X\geq 6)=0.74

c. A student makes at most 20 mistakes

i.e. P(X\leq 20)=1-P(X>20)

Using 'a' part  P(X>20)=0.21

P(X\leq 20)=1-0.21

P(X\leq 20)=0.79

d. Which two of these three events are​ complementary?

The complement of an event happening is the exact opposite: the probability of it not happening.

According to definition,

Option a and c are complementary events.

Answer:

The area of the shaded region= 37.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the outer circle= 2* 3.14* 36                 (Area of the circle=2\pir)

                                        =113.04

Area of the inner circle=2*3.14* 12

                                       =75.36

Area of the shaded region= Area of the outer circle- Area of the inner circle

                                             = 113.04- 75.36

                                               =37.68
