Answer:

a) Dice and spinner are different objects, with no relation between themselves, and thus her dice rolls and spinning outcomes are independent.

b) \frac{1}{48} probability of her rolling a 4 and spinning an 8.

c) \frac{1}{8} probability of her rolling an even number and spinning a number less than 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

A) Are her dice rolls and spinning outcomes independent or dependent?

Dice and spinner are different objects, with no relation between themselves, and thus her dice rolls and spinning outcomes are independent.

B) What is the probability of her rolling a 4 and spinning an 8?

Since the events are independent, we find each separate probability and multiply them.

Probability of rolling a 4:

One side out of 6 on the dice. So

P(A) = \frac{1}{6}

Probability of spinning an 8:

One side out of 8 on the spinner. So

P(B) = \frac{1}{8}

Probability of rolling a 4 and spinning an 8:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B) = \frac{1}{6} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{1}{48}

\frac{1}{48} probability of her rolling a 4 and spinning an 8.

C) What is the probability of her rolling an even number and spinning a number less than 3?

Since the events are independent, we find each separate probability and multiply them.

Probability of rolling an even number:

2, 4 or 6(3 sides out of 6). So

P(A) = \frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}

Probability of spinning a number less than 3:

Two numbers(1 or 2) out of 8 on the spinner. So

P(B) = \frac{2}{8} = \frac{1}{4}

Probability of rolling an even number and spinning a number less than 3:

P(A \cap B) = P(A)P(B) = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{8}

\frac{1}{8} probability of her rolling an even number and spinning a number less than 3.

What is the product? (-2d^2+s)(5d^2-6s)
Ulleksa [173]
(-2d^2+s)(5d^2-6s)
= (-2d^2*5d^2 + s*5d^2 -2d^2*-6s + s*-6s
= -10d^4 + 5sd^2 + 12sd^2 - 6s^2
=-10d^2 + 17sd^2 - 6s^2
This is the final result

prohojiy [21]

64% on sale means ( 100-64 = 36) 36% are full price

125 * 0.36 = 45 CDs are full price

Myong is collecting rainwater for the garden in the first week she collected 5 gallons in the second week she collected 12 quart
RUDIKE [14]
1 gallon = 16 cups
1 quart = 4 cups
1 pint = 2 cups
Therefore...

Multiply
5 gallons × 16 cups = 80 cups
12 quarts × 4 cups = 48 cups
7 pints × 2 cups = 14 cups

Then...

Addition
80 cups + 48 cups + 14 cups = 142 cups

Answer
Myong has 142 cups of rainwater after 3 weeks of collecting rainwater.

1. Which number is irrational? <br><br> 3/17<br> Power of 25<br> 0.6<br> Power of 33
Oksana_A [137]
This is what irrational means:
A number that cannot be expressed as a ratio between two integers and is not an imaginary number. If written in decimal notation, an irrational<span> number would have an infinite number of digits to the right of the decimal point, without repetition.

so i think its the 3rd one but im not fully sure. I'm NOT that good at math

Hope this Helps!! :-)
