Answer:

The probability of an eighth grader winning is 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Total no. of students = 42

Number of students in 7th grade = 21

Number of students in 8th grade = 14

Number of students in 9th grade = 7

Probability of event = \frac{\text{Favorable outcomes}}{\text{Total outcomes}}

So,the probability of an eighth grader winning= \frac{14}{42}=\frac{2}{6}=\frac{1}{3}

Hence The probability of an eighth grader winning is 1/3

As you may already be familiar, these functions f(x) and g(x) are piecewise. They consist of multiple functions with different domains.

1. For #1, the given input is f(0). Since 0≤1, you should use the first equation to solve. f(0)=3(0)-1 ➞ f(0)=-1
2. Continue to evaluate the given input for the domains given. 1≤1, therefore f(1)=3(1)-1➞f(1)=2
3. 5>1, therefore f(5)=1-2(5)➞f(5)=-9
4. -4≤1; f(-4)=3(-4)-1➞f(-4)=-13
5. -3<0<1; g(0)=2
6. -3≤-3; g(-3)=3(-3)-1➞g(-3)=-10
7. 1≥1; g(1)=-3(1)➞g(1)=-3
8. 3≥1; g(3)=-3(3)➞g(3)=-9
9. -5≤-3; g(-5)=3(-5)-1➞g(-5)=-16

Hope this helps! Good luck!

You are given the equation 27bx7•cx8•7xd=455x27. If b and c are both integers greater than 1 and b less than cb
jolli1 [7]

Answer:

The question is not so clear and complete

Step-by-step explanation:

But for questions like this, since the equation has been given, what is expected is for us to make comparison, compare the RHS with the LHS or by method of comparing coefficients.

We follow the stated conditions since we are told that b and c are both integers which are greater than 1 and b is less than the product of cb. from these conditions, we can compare and get the values of b , c and d.

Another approach is to assume values, make assumptions with the stated conditions, however, our assumptions must be valid and correct if we substitute the assumed values of b, c and d in the equation, it must arrive at the same answer for the RHS. i.e LHS = RHS

Doss [256]

Answer:

more than 15.40 cm and less than  14.60 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of bolts has a quality control policy that requires it destroy any bolts that are more than 4 standard deviations from the mean.

mean length= 15 cm

standard deviation= 0.10 cm

4 standard deviation from mean= 15±(4×0.10)

therefore, bolts of length more than 15+0.4, and less than 15-0.4 will be destroyed

= 15.40 cm and 14.60 cm
