Answer:

The correct answer are given by (A) \frac{1}{175000} ; (B) \frac{429}{175000}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of entries to the sweepstakes offered by Gemini Paper Products = 175,000.

Total number of prizes to be awarded includes 1 grand prize, 3 first prizes, 25 second prizes and 400 third prizes = 1 + 3 + 25 + 400 = 429.

(A) Required Probability for a person who has put one entry to win the grand prize is given by the fraction \frac{1}{175000}.

(B) Required Probability for a person who has put one entry to win any prize offered is given by \frac{429}{175000}.

(will mark brainliest ) Which of the following best describes the expression 5(x + 2)? (5 points)
Lunna [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The only one of these possible answers that could be correct is the fourth one:

The product of a constant factor 5 and a 2-term factor x + 2.  That '5' in front of (x+2) multiplies (x+2), and so the result is a product.

Describe the sequence of transformations that demonstrates the congruence between triangle ABC and triangle A´B´C´.
Shtirlitz [24]

Reflecting over the x axis means to perform the following tranformation:

(x,y) \to (x,-y)

So, you maintain the x coordinate, and change the sign of the y coordinate. The vertices become

A=(-4, 4)\to \hat{A} = (-4,-4),\quad B=(-2, 3)\to \hat{B} = (-2,-3),\quad C=(0, 7) \to \hat{C}=(0,-7)

Translating 3 units to the left means to perform the following transformation:

(x,y) \to (x-3,y)

So, you maintain the y coordinate, and decrease the x coordinate by 3. The vertices become

\hat{A} = (-4,-4) \to (-7,-4),\quad \hat{B} = (-2,-3)\to (-5,-3),\quad \hat{C}=(0,-7)\to (-3,-7)

So, as you can see, after these two transformation, the vertices A, B and C become A', B' and C'.

Can someone help geometry is confusing
NikAS [45]

<LMP and <NMP are supplementary angles so sum = 180

<LMP +  <NMP = 180

(-16x + 13) + ( - 20x + 23) = 180

-16x + 13  - 20x + 23 = 180

-36x + 36 = 180

-36x = 144

    x = -4

<LMP = -16x + 13 = -16(-4) + 13 = 77

<NMP = - 20x + 23 = - 20(-4)  + 23 = 103

Answer

<LMP  = 77°

<NMP  = 103°
