wlad13 [49]

Answer: 76.28 approximately 76

Step-by-step explanation:

Ryan bought fishing gear for 51.50, 14.99 and 5.79.

Total fishing gear bought will be the addition of the 3 fishing gear.

51.50 + 14.99 + 5.79= 72.28

The sales tax is the multiplication of the total fishing gear by 0.05

= 72.28 × 0.05

= 3.614 which is approximately 4

Amount paid by Ryan will be

Total fishing gear + Sales tax

= 72.28 + 4

= 76.28 approximately 76.

Which describes a non-uniform probability model? A) heads or tails from a coin flip B) the sum result of rolling two dice C) sel
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

The non-uniform probability is when the event is not same in the occurring of event.

Option A is uniform because there will be equal chance of getting   head or tail.

Option B is non-uniform because sum can be any number  if we get(3,4) it will be 7 and if we have (2,3) then it will be 5.

Option C is uniform because we have equal number of red and green balls so, selecting a ball from both will be same.

Option D is uniform because chance of 1,2,,3,4,5 or 6 will be equal chance from rolling a die that is 1/6 in all cases.

Therefore, Option B is correct

Suppose that 5 cards are drawn from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability that all 5 are not black?
lions [1.4K]
Here's the way I see it:  5 cards are drawn, one by one, without replacement.  Half (or 26) of the original deck are black and half (26) are white.

P(5 are not black) = P(5 are red)

P(5 are not black) = P(first card is red) * P(second card is red) * P(third card is red)*P(fourth card is red)*P(fifth card is red) =

(26/52) * (25/51) * (24/50) * (23/49) * (22/48) = 0.025   (answer)

We start with 52 cards.  We draw one, leaving 51 cards, 25 of which are red.  And so on.

Write a vector equation of the line that passes through p(–1 6) and is parallel to a = (3, -1).
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

(x,y) = p + t(a)

(x,y) = (-1,6) + t(3,-1)

(x,y) - (-1,6) = t(3,-1)

(x + 1, y - 6) = t(3, -1)
