there are 8 letters
2/8 to get i on the first draw
1/7 to get i on the second draw (no replacement)
2/8 * 1/7 = 2/56
1/28
The probability is 1/28
Answer:
The probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery is 0.00005.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the events be denoted as:
<em>X</em> = the stock goes up
<em>Y</em> = Joe wins the lottery
Given:
P (X) = 0.50
P (Y) = 0.0001
The events of the stock going up is not dependent on the the event of Joe winning the lottery.
So the events <em>X</em> and <em>Y</em> are independent of each other.
Independent events are those events that can occur together at the same time.
The joint probability of two independent events <em>A</em> and <em>B </em>is,

Compute the value of P (<em>X ∩ Y</em>) as follows:

Thus, the probability that Joe's stock will go up and he will win in the lottery is 0.00005.
Answer:
x= 0.78 (rounded to the hundredth)
Step-by-step explanation:
-5.5x + 0.46 = -3.94
You need to isolate x so the easiest thing to do is subtract 0.46 and move it to the other side of the equal sign.
-5.5x= -3.84 - 0.46
-5.5x = -4.3
divide -5.5 to get x alone
x= -4.3/-5.5
x= 0.78
Answer:
-3
Step-by-step explanation:
complete operations and rearrange to y = mx + b format
y + 1 = -3(x-5)
y + 1 = -3x + 15
y = -3x + 14
slope is -3
