Answer:

option C 4&5

Step-by-step explanation:

From the word consecutive, it means the two number follow each other

Hence from the given options, we can see that only option C which has 4and 5 will add up to 9 and is consecutive

Hence the answer is option C 4&5

5. A survey of student pizza preferences showed that 43 students preferred cheese, 56 preferred sausage, 39 preferred pepperoni,

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

P (Cheese) = 0.199, P (Sausage) = 0.259, P (Pepperoni) = 0.181,

P (Supreme) = 0.130, P (Another Kind) = 0.144

and P (Does not like any kind) = 0.088

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of students who prefer cheese = 43

Number of students who prefer sausage = 56

Number of students who prefer pepperoni = 39

Number of students who prefer supreme = 28

Number of students who prefer another kind = 31

Number of students who did not like any kind = 19

∴ The total number of students surveyed = $43+56+39+28+31+19=216$ The number of students who prefer pizza = $43+56+39+28+31=197$

The probability that a students likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{197}{216} \\=0.912$

The probability that a students does not likes pizza is,

$P(Student\ does\ not\ likes\ pizza)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ does\ not\ prefer\ pizza}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{19}{216} \\=0.088$

The probability distribution of students who prefer different kinds of pizza is:

The probability that a student likes cheese:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ cheese)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ cheese}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{43}{216}\\=0.199$

The probability that a student likes sausage:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ sausage)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ sausage}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{56}{216}\\=0.259$

The probability that a student likes pepperoni:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ pepperoni)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ pepperoni}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{39}{216}\\=0.181$

The probability that a student likes supreme:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ supreme)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ supreme}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{28}{216}\\=0.130$

The probability that a student likes another kind:

$P(A\ Student\ prefers\ another\ kind)=\frac{No.\ of\ students\ who\ prefer\ another\ kind}{Total\ no.\ of\ students\ surveyed}$

$=\frac{31}{216}\\=0.144$

Thus, the probability distribution table is displayed below:

Solve this quadratic equation using the quadratic formula. 5 - 10x - 3x2 = 0

horsena [70]

Answer:

x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3

Step-by-step explanation:

5 − 10x − 3x² = 0

Write in standard form:

-3x² − 10x + 5 = 0

Solve with quadratic formula:

x = [ -b ± √(b² − 4ac) ] / 2a

x = [ -(-10) ± √((-10)² − 4(-3)(5)) ] / 2(-3)

x = [ 10 ± √(100 + 60) ] / -6

x = (10 ± 4√10) / -6

x = (-5 ± 2√10) / 3

How do you find the equation to 1/3 of 27?

NeX [460]

To find 1/3 of 27 divide 27 by the denominator (which in this case would be 3) then multiply by the numerator (which is one) so you'd do 27 divided by 3 then multiply by 1

If a square block is 17 centimeters on one side.what is the perimeter of the block?

emmasim [6.3K]

If a shape is a square, this mean that each side has the same length. This means that each side of the square has a length of 17cm. Perimeter is the length of the outer boundary of a shape or the summation (addition) of all the sides. This means that the perimeter of this square is 17+17+17+17 or 17×4 which is equal to 68cm.
I hope this helps!
