Answer:

0.4 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

In a day

Miguel is to feed Chester ,

Chester can eat 3/4 of an ounce for each pound of body weight.

Chester weighs 6.8 pounds

Hence:

1 pound = 3/4 ounce

6.8 pounds = x ounces

Cross Multiply

x = 6.8 × (3/4) ounces

x = 5.1 ounces

Chester is to be fed 5.1 ounces of food each day.

The amount of food left after 1 day

= 5.5 ounces - 5.1 ounces

= 0.4 ounces

Hence, 0.4 ounces of food is left after 1 day

Consider a roulette wheel consisting of 38 numbers 1 through 36, 0, and double 0. If Smith always bets that the outcome will be
zimovet [89]

Answer:

0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A roulette wheel consists of 38 numbers 1 to 36, 0, and double 0.

Smith bets that the outcome will be one of the numbers 1 through 12.

To find: probability that Smith will lose his first 5 bets

Solution:

Probability refers to chances of occurrence of some event.

Probability = Number of favourable outcomes/Total number of outcomes

Total number outcomes = 38

As Smith bets that the outcome will be one of the numbers 1 through 12, number of favourable outcomes is equal to 12.

So,

probability that Smith will loss his first bet = \frac{12}{38}=\frac{6}{19}

Therefore,

Probability that Smith will lose his first 5 bets = (\frac{6}{19} )^5=0.003
