Answer:

1. 40%

2. The theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Lets define experimental probability first.

Experimental probability is the probability of an event's occurrence when the experiment was conducted.

The number cube is rolled 20 times, so our sample space is 20.

And the number 4 came in result 8 times, so the the event space is 8.

So,

Experimental Probability = 8/20

=> 0.4

Converting into percentage will give:

=> 40%

So the first option is correct.

2. First we have to find the theoretical probability of getting at least one tail when two coins are tossed

The sample space is {HH, HT, TH, TT}

3 out of these 4 outcomes contain at least one tail

So the theoretical probability of getting at least one tail is: 3/4

=> 0.75 or 75%

Now for the experimental probability,

The total sample space is 28+22+34+16 = 100

The number of favorable outcomes are(Which contain at least one tail):

22+34+16 = 72

So, experimental probability of getting at least one tail = 72/100

=> 0.72 or 72%

We can see that the theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability. So second option is correct..

Answer:

1. 40%

2. The theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are informed that a number cube is rolled 20 times and the number 4 is rolled 8 times. The experimental probability of rolling a 4 is;

(the number of times a 4 was rolled)/(total number of rolls)

8/20 = 0.4

0.4*100 = 40%

The experimental probability of obtaining at least one tails, one or more tails, is represented in mathematical notation as;

P(HT or TH or TT)

The above events are mutually exclusive, thus;

P(HT or TH or TT) = P(HT) + P(TH) + P( TT)

                               = (22+34+16)/(28+22+34+16)  

                               = 0.72 = 72%

On the other hand, the theoretical probability of obtaining at least one tails,

P(HT or TH or TT) = 3/4

                              = 75%

This is because there is at least one tail in 3 out of 4 possible outcomes.

Therefore, it is true to say that the theoretical probability is 3% greater than the experimental probability.

The answer she has is not correct.
 All the steps she did are correct, except they forgot to convert the decimal answer into the proper percentage by multiplying it by 100.

The correct answer should be 0.125 * 100 = 12.5%

Ms. Hamm bought a new car for $37,500. It is said that her car depreciates at a rate of 7% each year
Alona [7]

Answer:

This would mean that the next year her car's value would go down by $2,625. The new value of the car would consequently be $34,875.

<h3><u>Step-by-step explanation:</u></h3>

<em>Here is how you can solve this problem:</em>

  • Okay, so first, let's find 7% of $37,500. To do this, the simple way would be to find first 1% of $37,500.

  • 1% of $37,500 is $375. This is because you are moving the decimal point two spaces to the left.

Now that we know that 1% of $37,500 is $375, let's multiply this value by 7.

  • 375 x 7 = 2625.

  • Subtract 2625 from 37,500.

  • You will get $34,875.

Let's say that the next year, her car value goes down by 7% again.

THIS IS THE IMPORTANT PART:

<em>YOU FIND 7% OF THE NEW VALUE, NOT $37,500. YOU WOULD FIND 7% OF $34,875.</em>

<em>Hope this helps! :) </em>

Given the graph of a degree 3 polynomial below, complete the table of values for either the x-value of a zero, or the multiplici
leva [86]

The roots or zeros of a polynomial are the points it crosses the x-axis.

The roots of the polynomial in order from least to greatest are -5, 0 and 5

From the graph (see attachment), we have the following highlights

  • <em>The graph cross the x-axis at x = -5</em>
  • <em>The graph cross the x-axis at x = 0</em>
  • <em>The graph cross the x-axis at x = 5</em>

The points at which the graph crosses the x-axis are the roots of the graph.

So, the roots are: -5, 5 and 5
