Answer:

hypergeometric

Step-by-step explanation:

For each winning ticket, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is held by a men, or it is not.

There is a set number of X, and as the number of winning tickets decrease, the probability of a winning ticket being held by a men can decrease or increase. This is a characteristic of the hypergeometric distribution.

Emily and Sarah had a total of $80. after Sarah spent 1/3 of her money and Emily spent $17, Emily had twice as much money as Sar
Phoenix [80]
<span> SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80 dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by 3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33</span>

Amanda is making pastry dough. She mixes of a 1/3cup of flour and of a 1/5 cup of sugar. If she wants to mix flour and sugar in
mr_godi [17]

Flour : sugar = (1/3) : (1/5) = 5 : 3 . . . . . . . . multiply the first ratio by 15 to eliminate fractions

The total of ratio units in the last representation is 5+3=8, so for a recipe of 16 cups, each ratio unit will stand for 16/8 = 2 cups.

Multiplying the ratio by 2 cups, we find Amanda will need

... 10 cups flour : 6 cups sugar

for her recipe.

And an electronics warehouse ships TVs and DVD players to retailers all throughout the United States. The weight of three televi
vodomira [7]
X= weight of TV
y= weight of CD

3x+5y= 62.5
3x+ 2y= 52
You can either solve for a variable, or eliminate a variable by subtracting the second equation from the first:

3x + 5y = 62.5
-(3x+2y = 52)
0 + 3y = 10.5, so y = 10.5/3 or 3.5.

Now plug y= 3.5 back into any equation to get x:

3x + 5(3.5) = 62.5
3x + 17.5 = 62.5
3x = 45
x = 15
Always check work. Both equations should be true for x=15, y= 3.5
