Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

sample space

1 blue slice,

2 red slices, and

3 yellow slices

sample size= 1+2+3= 6

Required:

The probability that the dial stops on a blue or red slice

1. The probability that the dial stops on a blue = 1/6

2. The probability that the dial stops on a red= 2/6= 1/3

Hence The probability that the dial stops on a blue or red= 1/6+1/3

= 1+2/6

=3/6

=1/2

Last Question...Please help if you can...(25 points if you answer this)

Answer:

  • Annie- 17 hours, Brian- 3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of hours Annie travelled be a, and same of Brian be b

<u>Then we have</u>

  • a + b = 20
  • a = 5b + 2

<u>Substituting a in the first equation</u>

  • 5b + 2 + b = 20
  • 6b = 20 - 2
  • 6b = 18
  • b = 3

<u>Then finding a</u>

  • a = 20 - 3 = 17

<u>So the answer is:</u>

  • Annie- 17 hours, Brian- 3 hours

Justin's statement would be the best. In order to change 3/5 into 6/10, both sides would need to be multiplied by 2.

I just graphed the table next to the graph of g and compared the two.

The y-intercept of f is (0,8) and the y-intercept of g is (0, -2).  So f is GREATER THAN the y-intercept of g.

Now to do the average rate of change, I see from the interval [-6,-3] that f is decreasing and for g it is increasing.  Thus f is LESS THAN the average rate of change of g.

The average speed of a car during 5 hours is 50 miles per hour. What is the total distance traveled by the car?
Paraphin [41]

Answer:

250 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the time (t) equals 5 hours and that the rate (r) equals 50 mph. So knowing that, we can use the formula t*r=distance. We plug in the numbers and we get 250 miles.

Another way to think about this is, since we go 5 hours and 50 miles per hour, every hour we go 50 miles and we do that for 5 hours, so we go 50, 100, 150, 200, 250.
