Answer:
Consider the complete question is,
'The odds in favor of frank McKinney winning a hot dog eating contest are 2:9,
- Determine the probability that Frank will win the contest,
- Determine the probability that Frank will not win the contest'
Solution :
We know that,
Odds in favor : the ratio of the number of ways that an outcome can occur compared to how many ways it cannot occur.
We have,

So, total outcomes = 2 + 9 = 11,

Thus, the probability that Frank will win the contest = 
And,
The probability that Frank will win the contest = 
Answer:
It depends, Y or X have to be set up to get an actual number because you can simply plug any numbers.
Answer:
Option D. Marcelina spends less that the intended amount of money and buy less than enough corn
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> is the amount of white corn she buys
y ---> is the amount of yellow corn she buys
we know that
She needs to buy 50 kg of corn in total
so
----> equation A
She wants to spend $12 dollars total
so
----> equation B
The solution of the system of equations is the intersection point both graphs
The solution is the point (30,20)
That means
Marcelina needs to buy 30 kg of white corn and 20 kg of yellow corn
we have the ordered pair F(15.15)
That means
15 kg of white corn and 15 kg of yellow corn
therefore
Total kg of corn bought is


Total spend is


therefore
Marcelina spends less that the intended amount of money and buy less than enough corn
If other tickmarks are labeled, then you could do some detective work (of sorts) to figure out the unlabeled tickmarks.
For example, let's say we had a number line with 1,2,3,... and let's say that 7 was covered up or erased or smudged. So we have 1,2,3,4,5,6,__,8,9. We could then easily determine that 7 must go in that blank spot. This is just one example of course.
Another example could be that if we had a tickmark right in the middle of two whole numbers, say 0 and 1. This unlabeled tickmark would most likely be 1/2 = 0.5 as its at the halfway point between 0 and 1.
