A simulation is a mathematical model used to represent a situation.
- A simulation can be a program or a physical test to "simulate" a situation to predict the outcomes.
When we combine two or more simple events we have a compound event
- "Compound" means to combine, like a compound word would be a combination of two words
A Tree Diagram is a diagram that shows all the possible outcomes of an event
- In a tree diagram, each possible outcome "branches" off the main stem, making the final diagram look like a tree with many separating branches.
All the possible outcomes or results is called the sample space
- The outcomes are each different samples, and a sample space is a space that collects each of these samples
When an event is not affected by a previous outcome we have an independent event
- This event is "independent", not affected by other factors, making it an independent event

-9(c+4)(c-4)
this is the answer to your question
Ed : (0,205)(4,197)
slope(m) = (197 - 205) / (4 - 0) = -8/4 = -2
y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(0,205)...x = 0 and y = 205
time to sub
205 = -2(0) + b
205 = b
equation is : y = -2x + 205...so Ed loses 2 lbs per week
Eric :
y = -1.5x + 200...so Eric loses 1.5 lbs per week
when they started, Ed weighed 205 lbs and Eric weighed 200 lbs
* of the two, Eric loses fewer lbs per week. When the two began their respective weight-loss programs, Ed was heavier by 5 lbs.
