Answer:

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Paper = 20 slips

Word: PENNSYLVANIA

Required

Determine P(Multiple of 4 and V)

The sample size of the 20 slips is:

n(S) = 20

The outcomes of multiples of 4 is:

M4= \{4,8,12,16,20\}

n(M4) = 5

So, the probability of multiples of 4 is:

Pr(M4) = \frac{5}{20}

Pr(M4) = \frac{1}{4}

The sample size of PENNSYLVANIA is:

n(S) = 12

The outcome of V is:

n(V) = 1

So, the probability of V is:

P(V) = \frac{1}{12}

So, the required probability is: P(Multiple of 4 and V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = P(M4) * P(V)

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{4} * \frac{1}{12}

P(M4\ n\ V) = \frac{1}{48}

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083

Express as percentage

P(M4\ n\ V) = 0.02083 * 100\%

P(M4\ n\ V) = 2.083\%

Two friends argue about the calculated probability of flipping a coin to show heads three times in a row. steve mentions that ea
den301095 [7]

Solution:

A coin is flipped three times,resulting three heads in a row.

Since Steve has mentioned that ,  each flip  of a coin is unconnected to the previous flip.

Two or more events are said to be independent if occurrence of one of them is not affected by the Occurrence of other.

This is an example of independent events.

In terms of probability, P (A∩B∩C)= P(A)×P(B)×P(C)

-9.b = 45<br> b =<br> What is the answer I need to know the answe
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

b=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide by -9 to eliminate the -9 on -9b

(Since -9b is the same thing as -9 times b we can use the inverse of multiplication which is division to eliminate the -9 from b but we need to do it on both sides to make it balance)

-9b/-9=45/-9

b=-5

Determine the measure of the missing angles. Show your work! Be ready to discuss your answer.
soldier1979 [14.2K]

For a.

Since there are already two angles given for the triangle, we can measure the last angle using this formula:

90 + 55 + a = 180

Now solve for "a".

90 + 55 + a = 180

145 + a = 180

a = 180 - 145

a = 35°

For b.

From the picture above, the two triangle's tip are touching and having to form <em>vertical angles. </em>This means that the angles are congruent to each other.

Now that we have two angles in the second triangle(35 and 120), we can use the same formula:

35 + 120 + b = 180

Now solve for "b":

35 + 120 + b = 180

155 + b = 180

b = 180 - 155

b = 25°

Can anyone please help me to find the area of this please
valentinak56 [21]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  √35 +3√7 -6 . . . square units

Step-by-step explanation:

The area can be figured a number of ways. The figure can be divided into parts, and the areas of those parts added.

Or, the area of the enclosing rectangle can be found, and the rectangle at upper right that is not shaded can be subtracted from that. We choose the latter.

The overall width is the sum of the given partial widths:

  width = (√7 -2) + (2) = √7

Then the area of the bounding rectangle is ...

  A = LW = (√5 +3)(√7) = √35 +3√7

The area of the upper right empty-space is ...

  A = LW = (3)(2) = 6

Then The area of the shaded figure is ...

  √35 +3√7 -6
