Answer:

The height is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratios are just fractions. That being said, you also have part of a fraction. You know that the colorado flag is in 2:3, and 12 feet long is according to that ratio; it equals each other.

Make the equation.

$\frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{12}$

Now isolate x (in order to solve for it)

$12 * \frac{2}{3} = \frac{x}{12}*12\\8 = x$

x= 8

The height is 8.

8/12 = 2/3 ✅

The game of American roulette involves spinning a wheel with 38 slots: 18 red, 18 black, and 2 green. A ball is spun onto the wh

solong [7]

Answer:

a) $- \frac{1}{19}$

b) SD(x) = 0.9986

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data:

Number of slots 38

slots for red ball 18

slots for black = 18

slots for green 2

outcomes Red Black or Green

Profit 1 -1

P(X) 18/38 20/38

Expected value of wining,

$E(x) = 1. \frac{18}{38} + (-1) \frac{20}{38} = - \frac{2}{38} = - \frac{1}{19}$

B) Standard deviation of winning SD(x)

$SD(x) = \sqrt{(1- (-\frac{1}{19})^2 .\frac{18}{38} + (1- (-\frac{1}{19})^2 .\frac{20}{38}}$

$SD(x) = \sqrt{\frac{360}{361}$

SD(x) = 0.9986

Who would have a difficult time responding to this survey question? Select all that apply.

I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

18 and 65

Step-by-step explanation:

under 18 would be 17 and under, therefore not including 18 year olds. obviously they are not 19 yet either, so they wouldn't fall into either category, therefore they may be unsure of what to answer.

same with 65 year olds; they are more than 64 year old, but not yet /over/ 65, therefore they would not fit into either category either.
