Answer:
15:60, which when simplified is 1:4
The probability that you will guess the first answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the second answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess the third answer correctly = 1/2 = 0.5
The probability that you will guess all three answers correctly is
(0.5) x (0.5) x (0.5) = 0.125 = 12.5% .

Here are all the ways your answer sheet could wind up:
(R = a right answer. W = a wrong answer.)

Number of possible ways to score 0 right out of 3 questions: 1 way
Number of possible ways to score 1 right out of 3 questions: 3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 2 right out of 3 questions: 3 ways
Number of possible ways to score 3 right out of 3 questions: 1 way
Statistically, if your answers are all pure guesses,
then on the average, the score you expect is
(0 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 33-1/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 66-2/3 + 100) / 8
= 400 / 8
= 50% .
If you're happy with that score, great !
Go to the movies the night before the test,
and start guessing.
Answer: y = 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that y varies directly with x
That is, y∝x
Convert y∝x to a full equation by introducing a constant k to the right hand side.
Therefore, y = kx
Given that y = 10 and x = 20
Substitute y and x in the equation above. We have;
10 = k(20)
10 = 20k
20k = 10
k = 10/20
k = 0.5
Since k = 0.5, the equation y = kx becomes y = 0.5x
Now, to find y if x = 15, substitute x in equation y = 0.5x
Therefore, y = 0.5(15)
y = 7.5
Answer:
<D = 100
<E =30
<F =50
Step-by-step explanation
Given that triangles triangle ABC and triangle DEF are similar, this means that their angles are congruent i.e
<A = <D
<B = <E
<C = <F
Given
<A = 100 then <D = 100
<B = 30°, then <E = 30°
To get <F, we will use the expression
<D+<E+<F = 180 (sum of angles in a triangle is 180°)
100+30+<F = 180
130+<F = 180
<F = 180-130
<F = 50°
Hence the measure of <F is 50°
