prisoha [69]

Answer:

For this question, the options are written the wrong way. In each of the answers below, the correct form of the question will be added.

The answers are:

1. e) 4/9

2. a) 1/16

3. 980 girls

4. c) 2/3

5. d) 1/13

6. a) 42 boys

7. d) 1/21

8. b) 1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1. What is the probability of getting a number greater than 2 on two rolls of a six-sided die both times?

a) 4/3

b) 2/6

c) 4/6

d) 3/6

e) 4/9

The correct answer is e) 4/9 because the probability of getting a number greater than 2 in two rolls is 4/6 * 4/6 =16/36 = 4/9

2. A fair coin is tossed four times. What is the probability that it will be heads every time?

a) 1/16

b) 4/2

c) 2

d) 4/16

e) 1

The correct answer is a) 1/16 because the probability of each time that the coin is tossed is 1/2, and for 4 tosses is 1/2*1/2*1/2*1/2 = 1/16

3. The ratio of the number of girls to the number of boys was 2 to 5. If 2,450 students were present, how many were girls and how many were boys?

The correct answer is 980 girls, because 2450*2/5 = 980

4. A die is rolled twice. What is the probability of rolling a 5 or getting an even number?

a) 3/1

b) 1/12

c) 2/3

d) 1/3

If the die is rolled twice there are 12 possible outcomes and 8 of those outcomes can be 5 or an even number. The probability is 8/12 = 2/3

5. If one card is drawn from a standard deck, what is the probability of getting a jack?

a) 4/13

b) 1/52

c) 52

d) 1/13

e) 4

In a standard deck, there are 13 jack cards, the probability of getting a jack the first time is 1/13

6. There are 210 boys trying out for football. If 20% made the team, how many were chosen?

a) 42

b) 10

c) 4200

d) 105

e) 20

The number of boys that will be picked for the team is 210*20% = 42

7. From 42 boys who made the team, one will be chosen as kicker and one will be chosen as quarterback. What is the probability of being chosen as the kicker or the quarterback?

a) 2/21

b) 1/42

c) 2

d) 1/21

e) 42

The probability of getting picked for one of the 2 positions is 2/42 = 1/21

8. Two dice are rolled. There are 36 possible outcomes of rolling two dice. What is the probability of getting a total of seven on one roll?

a) 7

b) 1/6

c) 0

d) 7/36

e) 1/36

There are 6 ways of getting a sum of 7 tossing 2 dice, 1+6, 6+1, 2+5, 5+2, 3+4, 4+3. The probability is 6/36 = 1/6

Find the area of the trapezoid to the nearest tenth.

erica [24]

Answer:

2.2 metres squared

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the area of this trapezoid.

The area of a trapezoid is denoted by:

$A=\frac{(b_1+b_2)h}{2}$ , where $b_1$ and $b_2$ are the parallel bases and h is the height

Here, we already know the lengths of the two bases; they are 0.9 metres and 2.3 metres. However, we need to find the length of the height.

Notice that one of the angles is marked 45 degrees. Let's draw a perpendicular line from top endpoint of the segment labelled 0.9 to the side labelled 2.3. We now have a 45-45-90 triangle with hypotenuse 2.0 metres. As one of such a triangle's properties, we can divide 2.0 by √2 to get the length of both legs:

2.0 ÷ √2 = √2 ≈ 1.414 ≈ 1.4

Thus, the height is h = 1.4 metres. Now plug all these values we know into the equation to find the area:

$A=\frac{(b_1+b_2)h}{2}$

$A=\frac{(0.9+2.3)*1.4}{2}=2.2$

The answer is thus 2.2 metres squared.

Please help i am very confused

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

$\sqrt{80}$

80 is the number in the square root

Step-by-step explanation:

$d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1} )^{2} +(y_{2}-y_{1} )^{2} } \\d = \sqrt{(4-(-4) )^{2} +(5- 1 )^{2} }\\d = \sqrt{(4+4 )^{2} +4^{2}\\d = \sqrt{8^{2} +4^{2} }\\d=\sqrt{64 +16}\\d=\sqrt{80}$
