Stacy uses a spinner with six equal sections numbered 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 to play a game. Stacy spins the pointer 120 times and

records the results. The pointer lands 30 times on a section numbered 2, 19 times on 3, 25 times on 4, 29 times on 5, and 17 times on 6. How does the theoretical probability compare with the experimental probability of landing on an even number? Use the drop-down menus to explain your answer.
The probability is greater than the probability of landing on an even number. The probability is 72120 and the probability is 80120.

Answer:

Even numbers are 2,4,6 for this case and the experimental probability of being even is given by:

p = \frac{30+25+17}{120}= \frac{72}{120}= 0.6

Now we can find the theorical probability since we have 6 possible outcomes 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 we have 4 even numbers in the sample space and the theorical probability is given by:

p= \frac{4}{6}= 0.667

Then we can conclude that the empirical probability is lower than the theorical probability (0.6<0.667)  for this experiment

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we wan find the probability associated to the experiment we know that. The pointer lands 30 times on a section numbered 2, 19 times on 3, 25 times on 4, 29 times on 5, and 17 times on 6.

Even numbers are 2,4,6 for this case and the experimental probability of being even is given by:

p = \frac{30+25+17}{120}= \frac{72}{120}= 0.6

Now we can find the theorical probability since we have 6 possible outcomes 2, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 we have 4 even numbers in the sample space and the theorical probability is given by:

p= \frac{4}{6}= 0.667

Then we can conclude that the empirical probability is lower than the theorical probability (0.6<0.667)  for this experiment

The graph shows the functions f(x), p(x), and g(x):
Kruka [31]
Two functions have equal values where their graphs cross.

A) The solution to the pair of equations
.. y = p(x)
.. y = f(x)
will be where the graphs intersect, at (x, y) = (-3, -3).


B) We already know that (-3, -3) is one solution to y=f(x). The graph also appears to go through the point (0, 0).


C) p(x) = g(x) where their graphs cross, at x = -6. Both functions have the value 1 for that value of x.

Which equations represents a line that passes through (4, 1/3) and has a slope of 3/4
docker41 [41]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 3/4x + b

1/3 = 3/4(4) + b

1/3 = 3 + b

-8/3 = b

The perimeter of square JKLM is 48 units.
Mashcka [7]
Perimeter = 4 x sides
48 = 4 (x + 3)
48 = 4x + 12
36 = 4x
x = 9

Check:
x + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12
12 x 4 = 48
