Answer:

Denominator = 69090840

Explanation:

In a Fantasy Five lottery game, we have to correctly guesses the five numbered balls to win the game.

So we have to select five balls, there are total 39 balls.

The probability of correctly selecting a ball is

P(ball) = 1/total no. of balls

The probability of correctly selecting 1st ball is

P(1st ball) = 1/39

Now there are 38 balls remaining

The probability of correctly selecting 2nd ball is

P(2nd ball) = 1/38

Now there are 37 balls remaining

The probability of correctly selecting 3rd ball is

P(3rd ball) = 1/37

Now there are 36 balls remaining

The probability of correctly selecting 4th ball is

P(4th ball) = 1/36

Now there are 35 balls remaining

The probability of correctly selecting 5th ball is

P(5th ball) = 1/35

The probability of selecting all 5 balls correctly is

P(5 balls) = P(1st ball)*P(2nd ball)*P(3rd ball)*P(4th ball)*P(5th ball)

P(5 balls) = 1/39*1/38*1/37*1/36*1/35

P(5 balls) = 1/69090840

Therefore, the denominator of the reduced fraction representing the probability of winning Fantasy Five lottery game is 69090840.

Find an equation of the plane that is parallel to the xz-plane and is located 11 units to the right of the xz-plane in standard
mina [271]

Answer:

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our plane is parallel to the xz plane, the x and z are independent of each other, i.e. they could be anything. So xz plane has an equation of y = 0. So if this plane is located 11 units to the right of the xz plane then its equation must be y = 11.

Do any of you know how to easily and properly convert a mixed fraction to a decimal?​
arlik [135]

Answer:

Here's a 2 step conversion.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide the numerator by the denominator

2. Add this decimal number to the whole number part of the mixed number

A mixed number is a whole number plus a fraction. To find the decimal form of a fraction just divide the numerator by the denominator using a calculator or long division. Then add the decimal number to the whole number.

Example: Convert the mixed number 7 1/4 to a decimal

Convert the fraction to a decimal: Divide 1 by 4

1 ÷ 4 = 0.25

Add 0.25 to the whole number 7:

7 + 0.25 = 7.25

A bowling ball is pushed with a force of 22.0 N and accelerates at 5.5 m/s2. What is the mass of the bowling ball? Ik the answer
KiRa [710]

Step-by-step explanation:

You should always use the least number of significant figures.  The exception is exact numbers or constants.

For example, there are 60 minutes in an hour.  Even though this number has one significant figure, it is an exact number.  So 15 minutes converted to hours would be 0.25 hr.

One inlet pipe can fill an empty pool in 6 hours, and a drain can empty the pool in 12 hours. How long will it take the pipe to
Ainat [17]

Answer: 12 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = time it takes to fill the pool if the inlet pipe and drain pipe are both open

1/6 = portion of pool filled per hour by the inlet pipe

1/12 = portion of pool emptied per hour by the drain

1/x = portion of pool filled per hour if the inlet pipe and drain are both open

Then, 1/6 - 1/12 = 1/x

Multiply by the LCD, 12x, to obtain

2x - x = 12

x = 12 hours
