All these cases represent experiments whose outcomes are all equaly likely. What we mean is that the cards have all the same probability of being dealt (1/52), and all the spaces of the spinner have the same probability of being landed into (1/5).
These probabilities are computed as 1 over all the possible outcomes.
(a) If you want a heart card and a five, you want the 5 of hearts. So, only one card would satisfy your request, and thus you have probability 1/52 of dealing the 5 of hearts.
(b) There are four 10s and four Jacks in the deck, so 8 cards satisfy your request. With probability 8/52, you'll be dealt a Jack or a 10.
(c) You have two "good" outcomes out of 5, so your probability is 2/5.
Answer:
- (b) Her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches because the dimensions are not proportional to the scale.
Explanation:
(a) What is the length of the garden in her model? Show your work, including your proportion
<u>1. Scale</u>:
- model length / real length = 1 inch / 2 feet
<u>2. Proportion</u>:
Naming x the model length:
- 1 inch / 2 feet = x / 6 feet
Cross multiply:
- 1 inch × 6 feet = 2 feet × x
Divide both sides by x:
- x = 1 inch × 6 feet / 2 feet = 3 inch.
Answer: 3 inches
(b) If the width is 5 inches for the scale model and the scale is still 1 inch to 2 feet, will her scale model drawing fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches? Why or why not?
Both the width and the length must use the same scale, thus the corresponding sides of the scale model and the drawing must be proportional.
In the model the ratio of the length to the width is 3 inch / 5 inch
In the paper the ratio of the length to the width is 8.5 inch / 7 inch
Hence, you can see that in the model the length (mumerator of the fraction) is less than the width (denominator) while in the paper it is the opposite. Bieng the two ratios different, they are not proportional, and you conclude that her scale model drawing will not fit on a piece of paper that is 8.5 inches by 7 inches.
Answer:
X = 97.45 - 42
Step-by-step explanation:
If 42 + X = 97.45, X needs to be 97.45 - 42
you can do the same thing with smaller numbers, for example:
5 + X = 7
7 - 5= 2 and you can check for sure that this is the answer by adding them together 5 + 2= 7 so it's definitely the right answer
so for this question, 97.45- 42 = 55.45 so that's X
you can check that by 55.45 + 42 and if the answer is 97.45 that's the right answer!
I hope that makes sense
20/3 - Take the 6 2/3, multiply the 6 and the 3 (6 x 3 = 18), then add the 2 (18 + 2 = 20). Put that number over the original 3 and you've got yourself a mixed number.
The answer is b. 1/27
3^-3=1/27 and 3^4=81. 1/27×81=3. 3×3=9. 3^-5=1/243. 1/243×9= 1/27. The answer is b. 1/27.
