Mr. Garcia notes that in 84% of the papers his former students have turned in, they cited their sources incorrectly. He plans to

go through these papers at random to find one with incorrect citations for a lesson on citing with his current students. Assume that incorrect citations are independent between papers. Let NNN be the number of papers Mr. Garcia selects until he finds one with the sources cited incorrectly. Find the probability that the 3^{\text{rd}}3 rd 3, start superscript, start text, r, d, end text, end superscript paper Mr. Garcia selects will be the first with the sources cited incorrectly. You may round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Louis bought a burger and soda for $8. Kate purchased a slice of pizza and soda for $9. Biff purchased a burger, a slice of pizz
Arte-miy333 [17]

The equation for Louis's purchase is: x+y=8

The equation for Kate's purchase is: y+z=9

The equation for Biff's purchase is: x+y+z=13.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to define variables for each item involved in the purchase

Let x represent burger

y represent soda

z be the slice of pizza

Then

"Louis bought a burger and soda for $8"

x+y=8

"Kate purchased a slice of pizza and soda for $9"

y+z=9

"Biff purchased a burger, a slice of pizza and a soda for $13.50"

x+y+z=13.50

The equation for Louis's purchase is: x+y=8

The equation for Kate's purchase is: y+z=9

The equation for Biff's purchase is: x+y+z=13.50

A 13?-foot board is cut into two pieces. The longer piece is 7.5 feet longer than the shorter piece. What is the length of each?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The smaller board would be 2.75 feet and the longer one would be 10.25 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, assume the shorter board is equal to x. Next, we would know that the longer board would be equal to x + 7.5. Using these two assumptions, we can add the lengths together, set equal to 13 and then solve for x.

x + (x + 7.5) = 13

2x + 7.5 = 13

2x = 5.5

x = 2.75

Now that we have the length of the shorter board, we can add 7.5 to it to get the larger one.

2.75 + 7.5 = 10.25

She used a graphing tool to display the data in a scatter plot, with x representing the number of ice cubes and y representing t
azamat

The glass will contain <u>89.086 milliliters</u> of juice with 7 ice cubes, using the equation of the line of best fit, y =  -29.202x + 293.5.

In the question, we are informed that the equation of the line of best fit, for the, scatter plot with x representing the number of ice cubes and y representing the milliliters of juice is given as y =  -29.202x + 293.5.

We are asked to tell how many milliliters of juice will be in a glass with 7 ice cubes based on the line of best fit.

To find the milliliters of juice in the glass with 7 ice cubes, we substitute x = 7, in the equation of the line of best fit, to get a value of y, representing the milliliters of juice in the glass.

Thus,

y =  -29.202x + 293.5,

or, y =  -29.202(7) + 293.5 {Substituting x = 7},

or, y = -204.414 + 293.5,

or, y = 89.086.

Thus, the glass will contain <u>89.086 milliliters</u> of juice with 7 ice cubes, using the equation of the line of best fit, y =  -29.202x + 293.5.

Two fair coins are flipped. Given that at least one coin lands on a head, calculate the probability of one head and one tail. Wr
Greeley [361]

The probability of one head and one tail is 2/3.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The possibilities for flipping two fair coins are {T,T}, {H,H}, {H,T}, {T,H}
  • Given the case that at least one coin lands on a head, So the total possibilities are {H,H}, {H,T}, {T,H} = 3 possibilities
  • Required event is 1 head and 1 tail= {H,T}, {T,H} = 2 possibilities

To calculate the probability of one head and one tail,

Probability = required events / Total events

Probability = 2/3
