Answer: 199: 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

The odds against any event is the ratio of the unfavorable outcomes to the favorable outcomes.

Given , The winner of a raffle will receive a​ 21-foot outboard boat.

Total raffle tickets were sold  = 6000

Number of tickets you have = 30

We assume that the lottery was fair , then, the number of possible outcome that you will win = 30

and the number of possible outcomes that one of the others wins = 6000-30= 5970

Then, the odds against your winning the​ boat = Number of possible outcomes that one of the others wins : Number of possible outcome that you will win

= 5970: 30 = 199:1   [∵\dfrac{5970}{30}=\dfrac{199}{1}]

Hence, the odds against your winning the​ boat = 199: 1.

If you are given the following stem and leaf display and asked to construct a frequency distribution chart, what would be the wi
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

Width of intervals: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

We first look at how data is represented in a stem-leaf diagram.

Any number of the left (before -) is the stem and all numbers on right (after -) are the leaves. Each combination of stem and leaf represents one number. For example: 1 - 332 represents: 13, 13, 12.

Our data is as follows:

13, 13, 12, 24, 25, 31, 31, 35, 37, 42, 43, 41, 52, 51, 51, 52

To calculate the width of the frequency distribution chart, we have the following formula:

Class\ width = \frac{Range}{Number\ of\ classes}

The range of any data set = Maximum value in the data set - Minimum value in the data set

Maximum value in this case as seen from the data is 52 and minimum is 12.

Range = 52 - 12 = 40

Since we had only 5 stems in the data, we shall use that as the number of classes required in the frequency distribution chart.

Class\ width = \frac{40}{5}  = 8

Hence, the class width in this data set will be 8.

To make the intervals, we begin from the minimum value and add 8 to it. The intervals will be:

12 - 20

20 - 28

28 - 36

36 - 44

44 - 52

Observe, that all the values of the stem lie within each interval.

For example, there are 3 values for stem 1: 12, 13, 13 and each lie in the first interval 12 - 20.

Next, the values of stem 2 are 24 and 25. Each of these value lie in the second interval 20 - 28; and henceforth.

(HELP) What is the domain and range of this parabola?
Stels [109]

Answer:

D: [0,8]

R: [0,3]

Step-by-step explanation:

The domain is the x-values covered by the graph, while the range is the y-values. So to find each, find the lowest and highest x and y value; since this graph is continuous the domain and range will include all values between these points. In this case, the lowest x is 0 and the highest is 8; the lowest y is 0 and the highest is 3. Then to write the answer write is from least to greatest, finally, surround the point by a parenthesis or bracket. The difference is that parenthesis means the value is not included while a bracket means it is. On this graph all points are included, therefore brackets should be used.
