Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The team draws with a probability of 1 = (0.5 + 0.2) = 0.3

If the team does not win then it loses or draws.

Loosing = 0.2

Draw := 0.3

P(not win) = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5

======================

Not lose means wins or draws.

P(not lose) = 0.5 + 0.3 = 0.8

======================

Not Draw means wins or loses

P(not draw) = 0.5 + 0.2 = 0.7

Of course all of these could be done more directly.

P(not win)= (1 - win) = 1- 0.5 = 0.5

P(not lose) =  ( 1 - lose) = 1 - 0.2 = 0.8

P(not draw) = (1 - 0.3) = 0.7

Answer:

8!=40320

Step-by-step explanation:

SInce their are 8 athletes and 8 positions we can assume this: The first sprinter has 8 positions to end in, the next has 7 places to finish in, the third has 6 places and so on... Using this we can multiply these possibilities to find that the possibilities are 8×7×6×5×4×3×2 which results in 40320 (this function is known as a factorial and denoted !).

How can the probability of an event help make predictions
Sliva [168]
The probability of an event can help make predictions by knowing the chance of something happening and using your knowledge to determine the probability of choosing for example blue on a spinner out of 6 with 4 blues. there is 4 blues and 2 red so you predict it will be on red because there is more of it

Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. If
Aleks04 [339]
<span>Each team in the softball league plays each of the other teams exactly once. For every game, there is 2 team playing. The order is not important because  A vs B is same as B vs A
So you just need to makes a combination of 2 that have a result of 21. If there is t number of teams, the number of matches would be:
tC2 = t!/2!(t-2)! = 21
</span>t! / (t-2)! = 21 *2
(t)(t-1)= 42
t^2 -t -42=0
(t-7)(t+6)
t=7 ; t=-6

Excluding the minus result, you got 7 teams.
