There are 45 numbers out of which 5 numbers are required to win an enormous sum of money

No of ways  in which 5 numbers can be selected out of 45 numbers.

C_{45}^5=\frac{45!}{40!5!} =1221759

out of which there is only combination foe contest winning

P=\frac{1}{1221759}

When 100 different tickets are bought then

Probability of winning: \frac{100}{1221759}

Probably of winning≈0,000082

Which linear inequality is represented by the graph? (A)y ≤1/3 x − 1 (B)y ≥ x − 1 (C)y < 3x − 1 (D)y > 3x − 1
lubasha [3.4K]

The equation of the line is \boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.

Further explanation:

The linear equation with slope m and intercept c is given as follows.

\boxed{y = mx + c}

The formula for slope of line with points \left( {{x_1},{y_1}} \right) and \left( {{x_2},{y_2}} \right) can be expressed as,

\boxed{m = \frac{{{y_2} - {y_1}}}{{{x_2} - {x_1}}}}

Given:

Explanation:

The line intersects y-axis at \left( {0, - 1} \right). Therefore, the y-intercept is -1.

The line passes through the points \left( {0, - 1} \right) and \left( {3,0} \right).

The slope can be obtained as follows,

\begin{aligned}m&= \frac{{0- \left( {- 1} \right)}}{{3 - 0}}\\&= \frac{1}{3}\\\end{aligned}

Substitute \dfrac{1}{3} for m, 3 for x and 0 for y in equation y = mx + c to obtain the value of c.

\begin{aligned}0& \frac{1}{3} \cdot 3 + c\\- 1&=c\\\end{aligned}

To check whether the equation includes origin substitute 0 for x and 0 for y in equation y \geqslant \dfrac{1}{3}x - 1.

\begin{aligned}0&\geqslant \frac{1}{3} \times 0 - 1 \\0&\geqslant - 1\\\end{gathered}

The statement is true. The equation contains origin.

The equation of the line is \boxed{y \geqslant \frac{1}{3}x - 1}.

Write the number below as a fraction in its simplest form 0.˙49˙9 (more clearer picture is attached here)
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

499/999

Step-by-step explanation:

The decimal number written is:

0.499...

Such that these 3 decimals are repeated as:

0.499499499...

Let's define this number as k

k = 0.499...

Let's multiply this number by 1000 (the same number of zeros as important decimals after the decimal point)

we get:

1000*k = (1000)*(0.499...) = 499.499...

Now we can subtract the original number k, so we get:

1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...

In this way, we remove the part after the decimal point:

1000*k - k = 499.499... - 0.499...

(1000 - 1)*k = 499

999*k = 499

Now we can divide both sides by 999

(999*k)/999 = 499/999

k = 499/999

The fraction notation of our number is 499/999 (and this is the simplest form)

Find the surface area of the following triangular prism. surface area=_________ ft²
Scorpion4ik [409]
  • Answer:

<em>312 ft²</em>

  • Step-by-step explanation:

<em>3 rectangles </em>

<em>2 triangles</em>

<em>4 yd = 12 ft</em>

<em>A = 4ft×12ft + 8ft×12ft + 10ft×12ft + 2×6ft×8ft/2</em>

<em>= 48ft² + 96ft² + 120ft² + 48ft²</em>

<em>= 312 ft²</em>
