We are given chance of winning a game is 1/50.

In decimal form 1/50 could be written as 0.02.

So, for each game, the chance of winning is 0.02.

Therefore, chance of loss would be = 1 -(0.02) = 0.98.

Chance of loss of 50 independent games = 0.98*0.98*0.98*0.98...... upto 50 times, that is (0.98)^50.

The chance of winning at least once = 1 - (0.98)^50.

We got (0.98)^50 = 0.36417

Therefore, 1 - (0.98)^50 = 1 - 0.36417.

We get 0.63583.

Therefore, correct option is c. 0.6358.

Solve the equation for an ellipse for y. Assume that y > 0. y^2/a^2 + x^2/b^2 = 1
In-s [12.5K]
Multiply each term by a^2b^2:-

b^2y^2 + a^2x^2 = a^2b^2
subtract a^2x^2 from both sides
b^2y^2  = a^2b^2  - a^2x^2
Now divide both sides  by b^2

y^2 =  a^2 -  a^2x^2 / b^2  = a^2 (1 - x^2/b^2)

take positive square root ( because y > 0)

y  = a sqrt(1 - x^2/b^2)
