Answer:

12.67 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Time taken is given by distance divided by speed

Given distance of 228, 000, 000 km and speed of light as 300, 000 km/s then time will be

Time=228, 000, 000/300, 000=760 seconds

Conversion

60 seconds make up 1 minute

760 seconds will be 760/60

Time=760/60=12.666666666666

Rounded off, this is 12.67 minutes

How does the Counting Principle help when determining the sample space for a probability distribution?
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

This is also known as the Counting rule.

The Fundamental Counting Principle is used in determining all the possible outcomes and the total possible ways different events can be combined with each other. It is usually done by multiplying all the events together to get the total possible outcome. Doing this also helps in determining the sample space of a probability.

For example there are events a, b and c. The total sample space or possible outcome will be a*b*c.

In a lottery game, a player picks six numbers from 1 to 22. If the player matches all six numbers, they win 20,000 dollars. Othe
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

Total possible number of outcomes = C(24,6) [24 choose 6]

=24!/(6!18!)

= 134596

Out of which there is only one winning combination.

Therefore we conclude:

P(win 20000)=1/134596

P(lose 1)=134595/134596

and hence the expected value is:

20000*(1/134596)+(-1)*(134595/134596)

=-114595/134596

=-0.8514 (rounded to four places after decimal)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helped!

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

(x+2)^2+1

Step-by-step explanation:

G is shifted 2 to the left and one up. 2 to the left is represented by changing the input by adding 2 to it (as the original is 2 more than the edited), and adding 1 to the end of it adds 1, so our answer is (x+2)^2+1
