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.

The equation of the graphed line is 2x – 3y = 12.
bearhunter [10]

Hello there! The x-intercept is 6.

The x-intercept is when the y value id equal to zero, and the line crosses the x axis. In this example, you can see that the line passes through x at the value of 6, making that your answer.

I hope this was helpful and have a great rest of your day!

What is the smallest angle of rotational symmetry for a square
mars1129 [50]

When we rotate a figure and there is no change in the shape of the figure then it has rotational symmetry.

We know that the order of rotation for a square is 4.

Hence, we have \frac{360}{4} =90^{\circ}

Thus, the angle of rotational symmetry of square are

90^{\circ}, 180^{\circ}, 270^{\circ}

Hence, the minimum angle  of rotational symmetry is  90^{\circ}

Therefore, the minimum angle of rotational symmetry for a square is 90 degrees.
