Answer:

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Odds in favor of event = 2 : 9 or 2/9

Let,

These odds are out of 1.

The odds against the event would be

Odds against = 1 - 2/9

Odds against = \frac{9-2}{9}

Odds against = \frac{7}{9}

Therefore,

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Find a linear equation whose graph is the straight line with the given property.
jeka57 [31]

Answer:

y = 3/4x - 9/8

Then read explanation and see here with 2 coordinates would make

if 3/4 = -6 then 1 = -8

y = -6x + c

-6 / 3/4  + 9/8 / - 0.5  = -2.25

therefore c = -2.25

y = -6x - 2.25

y = -6x - 9/4  and again 9/4 can be found easily if round up fraction decimal to 225/100 and divide by 4

Step-by-step explanation:

C1)    (0.5 , -0.75)

C2)   ( 1. -3.75)

y = mx + c

-3.75 - - 0.75  /   1 - 0.5  = -3.75 + 0.75 / 0.5

= -3 / 0.5 = m

m = -6

y = -6x + c

then this works given just one coordinate to solve for 1 or 2 sets given points

y - y1 = mx+c

y - - 0.75 =  0.75 (x - x1)

y + 0.75 = 0.75 (x - 0.5)

y + 0.75 = 0.75x - 0.375

y = 0.75 - 0.75   =  0.75x( - 0.375 - 0.75)

y = 0.75x -1.125

y = 3/4x - 9/8    as common denominators of 1125/1000 is 9/8 as we divide by  125 into the fraction as we start at 250 and check its half just like when finding common denominators we 1/4 the lower number and see if we can find its half or its double etc with the other num er as first step for 3sf numbers.

At a strawberry stand Luisa paid $4.50 for 2 pounds of strawberries. How much would you expect to pay for five pounds or strawbe
Daniel [21]

<u>Half</u> of 4.50 is 2.25, so for <u>one</u> pound it would be <u>$2.25</u>.

To calculate five pounds, you need to add 2.25+2.25+2.25+2.25+2.25 = <u>11.25</u>.

For <u>five</u> pounds of strawberry's, it would cost <u>$11.25</u>.

Hope this helped !

What’s the value of y?
ratelena [41]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Since BD and AE are parallel lines, then

∠BDC = ∠AED ( corresponding angles ), thus

4x - 5 = 97 - 2x ( add 2x to both sides )

6x - 5 = 97 ( add 5 to both sides )

6x = 102 ( divide both sides by 6 )

x = 17, hence

∠AED = 97 - 2x = 97 - (2 × 17) = 97 - 34 = 63°

∠BDE and ∠AED are same side interior angles and are supplementary, thus

10y - 3 + 63 = 180

10y + 60 = 180 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

10y = 120 ( divide both sides by 10 )

y = 12 → D

On a windy day, a 90 foot rope tightly secures a hot air balloon to a stake in the ground. From the balloon, the angle of depres
Alborosie

Answer:

  • 79 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Balloon - B, stake - S, point at ground - G

<u>Given:</u>

  • BS = 90 ft
  • m∠BSG = 62°
  • BG = x

<u>Use sine and solve for x:</u>

  • BG/BS = sin ∠BSG
  • sin 62° = x / 90
  • x = 90 sin 62 deg
  • x = 79 ft (rounded)
