Answer: Odds in favor = Number of successes: Number of failures

Step-by-step explanation:

Example

A jewelry box contains 5 white pearl, 2 gold rings and 6 silver rings. What are the odds of drawing a white pearl from the jewelry box?

Number of successes = 5

Number of failures = 2 + 6 = 8

Numbers of ways to draw a white pearl: number of ways to draw another jewelry.

5:8

The odds are 5:8

Answer:

B, D, F, and H

Step-by-step explanation:

You substitute in each of the numbers for x and see if it equals one of the values in the range. {-37, -25, -13, -1}

A) -6(1)+11=-5 NO

B) -6(2)+11=-1 YES

C) -6(3)+11=-7 NO

D) -6(4)+11=-13 YES

E) -6(5)+11=-19 NO

F) -6(6)+11=-25 YES

G) -6(7)+11=-31 NO

H) -6(8)+11=-37 YES

So the ones to select are B, D, F, and H.

Suppose that you wanted to predict the price of a house based on where the house was located (northeast, northwest, southeast, o

morpeh [17]

Answer: b. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that , the indicator variable is a dummy variable in regression analysis which is used to denote either presence ( by 1 ) or absence ( by 0 ) of a nominal variable that can be responsible for the change in output.

Number of indicator variables = (all levels in the original variable)-1

Here , the given categories as per the location are northeast, northwest, southeast, or southwest.

i.e. all levels in the original variable = 4

Then, the umber of indicator variables we need = 4-1 =3

Hence, we need 3 indicator variables.

Thus , the correct answer is b. 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1. if a counting number is selected at random from a set of whole number less than or equal to 20 find the probability of getting:

Counting numbers are Natural numbers: $\mathbb{N}$

Also, we have Whole numbers. Despite not having an official symbol, I usually denote the set as $\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$

Whole numbers less than or equal to 20: $A\leq 20, A \subset \mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0} \\\implies A=\{0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20\}$

A. Prime numbers

From the set A, the prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 8 prime numbers, the probability is:

$P=\frac{8}{21} \approx 40\%$

B. Composite numbers

From the set A, the composite numbers are 4, 6, 8, 9, 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 20.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 11 composite numbers, the probability is:

$P=\frac{11}{21} \approx 52\%$

C. Divisible by three

From the set A, the numbers divisible by three are 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18.

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 6 numbers divisible by three, the probability is:

$P=\frac{6}{21} \approx 30\%$

D. Square of 2

From the set A, the numbers square of 2 are 0, 1, 4, 9, 16.

$\sqrt{0} =0$

$\sqrt{1} =1$

$\sqrt{4} =2$

$\sqrt{9} =3$

$\sqrt{16} =4$

Once we have 21 numbers in total and 5 numbers square of 2 , the probability is:

$P=\frac{5}{21} \approx 24\%$

Q2. The opposite angle of acyclic quadrilaterals is in the ratio of 2:3. Find the degree measure of each opposite angle?

Once they're opposite, they add up to 180º

$2x+3x=180 \implies 5x=180 \implies x=36$

The first angle is 72º

The second angle is 108º

Q3. what is the solution set of 9x-4<13x-7 (domain, x e z) ?

$x \in \mathbb{Z}\\$

$x>\frac{3}{4}$

$x\in \left(\frac{3}{4},\infty \right)$

Q4. if three fourth of a number is one tenths, what is the number?

$\frac{3}{4} x =\frac{1}{10} \implies 3x=\frac{4}{10} \implies \boxed{x = \frac{2}{15}}$

Q5. which one is the equation of the line passing through the origin and having a slope 4?

$y=mx+b$

$m: \text{slope}$

$b: \text{y-intercept}$

B. Y= 4x

Find the 9th term of the geometric sequence whose common ratio is 1/3 and whose first term is 2.

raketka [301]

Answer:

2/6561

Step-by-step explanation:

Geometric sequence formula : $a_n=a_1(r)^n^-^1$

where an = nth term, a1 = first term , r = common ratio and n = term position

given ratio : 1/3 , first term : 2 , given this we want to find the 9th term

to do so we simply plug in what we are given into the formula

recall formula : $a_n=a_1(r)^n^-^1$

define variables : a1 = 2 , r = 1/3 , n = 9

plug in values

a9 = 2(1/3)^(9-1)

subtract exponents

a9 = 2(1/3)^8

evaluate exponent

a9 = 2 (1/6561)

multiply 2 and 1/6561

a9 = 2/6561

The quotient of 794.1 divided by 7.61, expressed to two decimal places, is A. 104.35. B. 95.83. C. 786.49. D. 1,043.50.

AysviL [449]

The question asks us to find the quotient of 794.1 by 7.61, expressed to two decimal places. First we will divide those two numbers: 794.1 : 7.61 = 104.34954. Then we have to round the result to the 2 decimal places. After 104.34 is 9 so we have to round the number to 104.35. Answer: The quotient is 104.35.
