Answer:

The probability is 0.27

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, we have that:

Odds of a win are 27 to 73.

This means that for each 27 games that you are expcted to win, you are also expected to lose 73.

So

Desired outcomes:

27 wins

Total outcomes:

27 + 73 = 100 games

Probability

P = \frac{27}{100} = 0.27

Answer:

The probability is 0.27

PLEASE HELP WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST the number of students at north middle school is 1240 and is decreasing by 25 students per year
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

-88

Step-by-step explanation:

Let N(x) be the number of students at NMS for a certain number of years.

Let S(x) be the number of students at SMS for a certain number of years.

Let x be the number of years.

N(x)=1240-25x

S(x)=800-30x

When # of students is equal, N(x)=S(x). Therefore, we are looking for the value of x (# of years) when 1240-25x=800-30x

Subtract 1240 from each side

-25x=-440-30x

Add 30x

5x=-400

x=-88 years

Check your numbers.

The diameter of the Sun is about 1.4 x 106 km. The diameter of the planet
den301095 [7]

Answer:

1.17*10²

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of the sun is about 1.4 × 10⁶ km

1.4*10⁶ km = 1,400,000

Diameter of the planet venus is about 12000 km

12000 km = 1.2 × 10⁴

Ratio of the diameters

Sun : Venus

1.4 × 10⁶ km : 1.2 × 10⁴

1.4 × 10⁶ km / 1.2 × 10⁴

1.4 / 1.2 × 10^6-4

1.166 × 10²

Approximately

1.17 × 10²

You can use a number line to adds the numbers

-8+5=-3°F

therefore

The temperature at noon was -3°F

Part b) we know that

the temperature increased by another 5 degrees

You can use a number line to adds the numbers

-3+5=+2°F

therefore

The temperature at 3:00 pm was +2°F

Part c) we know that
