Answer:

The probability that neither player gets on base is 0.4824

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Both players get to base. <em>Just multiply the two probabilities together</em>:

= (<em>probability first batter gets on base</em>) x (<em>probability second batter gets on base, if the first batter gets on base</em>)

= 0.23 x 0.38

= 0.0874

2. One player gets to base. The formula here is P(A+B) =P(A) + P(B) - P(A) x P(B)

= (<em>probability first batter gets on base</em>) + (<em>probability second batter gets on base, if the first batter does not</em>) - (0.23 x 0.26)

= 0.23 + 0.26 - (0.23 x 0.26)

= 0.49 - 0.0598

= 0.4302

3. Neither player gets to base =<em> 1 - addition of the previous two cases</em>.

= 1 - (0.0874 + 0.4302)

= 1 - 0.5176

= 0.4824

What two numbers multiply to get -42 and add to 11
nataly862011 [7]
To find out the answer, let's factor out -42 (as if it's a positive number).

42: 1 x 42, 2 x 21, 3 x 14, 6 x 7.

With these given factors and due to the product being negative, we will go on and off with them being negative to find which sum up to 11.

Let's try 1 and 42.

-1 + 42 = 41
-42 + 1 = -41.

1 x 41 is not our answer.

Let's try 2 and 21.

2 - 21 = -19
-2 + 21 = 19

2 x 21 is not our answer.

Let's try 3 and 14.

-3 + 14 = 11
3 - 14 = -11.

Your answer is:

-3 and 14 sum up to 11 and make a product of -42.

-3 and 14 are your numbers.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

The scatter plot for the provided data is attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

A scatter plot is a graphical representation of the relationship between two variables. It displays how one variable affects the other variable.

The data for the average pain level, on the scale of 1 to 10, and the amount of dosages of pain medication provided to the volunteers is as follows:

Average pain level    Dosage (mg)

          6.0                             0

          5.8                           50

          5.2                          100

          4.9                          150

          3.9                         200

          3.6                         250

          3.5                         300

The scatter plot for the provided data is attached below.
