A linear model of this situation contains the values (15, 300.2) and (26, 177.88) where x represents the number of square inches
maw [93]

Answer: Paula starts with 301.5 yarns.

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line passing through two points (a,b) and (c,d) is given by:-

(y-b)=\dfrac{b-d}{a-c}(x-a)

Given: x=  number of square inches knitted on the scarf

y= number of yarns remaining on the ball of yarn

The equation of a line passing through (15, 300.2) and (26, 177.88):

(y-300.2)=\dfrac{26-15}{177.88-300.2}(x-15)\\\\\Rightarrow (y-300.2)=\dfrac{11}{-122.32}(x-15)\\\\\Rightarrow (y-300.2)=\dfrac{11}{-122.32}(x-15)

To find initial point, put x=0

y-300.2=-\dfrac{11}{122.32}(0-15)\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-300.2=\dfrac{375}{278}\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=\dfrac{375}{278}+300.2\\\\\Rightatrrow\ y=301.5  \ \ (approx)

Hence, Paula starts with 301.5 yarns.

A ratio dogs to cats at an animal shelter is 2 : 5. The number of cats is how many times the number of dogs?
Ratling [72]
Since there are 5 cats and 2 dogs, divide cats by dogs for the number.

5/2= 2.5

There are 2.5 times more cats than dogs.

I hope this helps!

Find the probability of winning a lottery by selecting the correct six integers, where the order in which these inte
stich3 [128]

The probability of winning a lottery by selecting the correct six integers, are

\begin{aligned}&(a) 1.68 \times 10^{-6} \\&(b) 5.13 \times 10^{-7} \\& (c) 1.91 \times 10^{-7} \\&(d)8.15 \times 10^{-8}\end{aligned}

<h3>What is binomial distribution?</h3>

The binomial distribution is a type of probability distribution that expresses the probability that, given a certain set of characteristics or assumptions, a value would take one of two distinct values.

Part (a); positive integers not exceeding 30.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the other twenty-four.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{c}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}24 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\6\end{array}\right)}=1.68 \times 10^{-6}

Part (b); positive integers not exceeding 36.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the other thirty.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}30 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\6\end{array}\right)}=5.13 \times 10^{-7}

Part (c); positive integers not exceeding 42.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Pick six of the six accurate integers and none of the 36 other integers.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}36 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\6\end{array}\right)}=1.91 \times 10^{-7}

Part (d); positive integers not exceeding 48.

To calculate the probability, use binomial coefficients. Choose six of the six accurate integers and none of the other 42.

\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}6 \\6\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{c}42 \\0\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{c}48 \\6\end{array}\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(\begin{array}{c}48 \\6\end{array}\right)}=8.15 \times 10^{-8}
