g During winter, red foxes hunt small rodents by jumping into thick snow cover, without any visual clue. Researchers examined th

e compass direction of hundreds of such jumps. They found that 73% of jumps in the northeast direction were successful, compared with 60% of jumps in the southwest direction and only 18% of jumps in all other directions. True or False: Jumping direction and jump outcome are independent.

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation:

Events can be classed as being dependent or independent depending on whether the outcome of a certain event affects the outcome of another. In the scenario above, the success rate of jumps in the Northeast direction is higher than in the southwest direction and even much than in other directions. With these uneven rate of success, the probability that a fox will have a successful jump will depend on the direction in which the fox is jumping. With an high expected success probability in the Northeast and southwest than in other directions

I'll give you more points but you have to answer all the parts to the question. I need this plsssss ty lol. Show all work too pl
alexira [117]

Answer:

a) 34mi

b) 10mi

c) 44mi

d) by Calculating the amount of miles it would take John to go to school plus the amount of miles it would take Sara to go to school. Then add the sum of the amount of miles it took for both to go to school.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) explanation:

a^{2} +b^2=c^2

16^2+30^2=c^2

256 + 900 = c^2

c^2=1156

\sqrt{1156}=34mi

b) explanation:

a^{2} +b^2=c^2

6^2+8^2=c^2

36+64=c^2

c^2=100

\sqrt{100} =10mi

c) explanation: we already have all the data from John's house to Sara's House.

John's House to Sara's House = John's House to School + Sara's House to School.

Sara's House to School (Question #1) = 34mi

John's House to School (Question #2) = 10mi

34(mi) + 10(mi) = 44(mi)

Determine the value of a, b, and c for the quadratic equation: 4x2- 8x = 3
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

B. a = 4, b = -8, c = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation given is:

4x^2- 8x = 3

The general form of a quadratic equation is given as:

ax^2 + bx +c = 0

Let us put the given equation in this form and then compare with the general form of the quadratic equation.

4x^2- 8x = 3\\\\4x^2 - 8x - 3 = 0

Therefore, by comparing:

a = 4

b = -8

c = -3

The correct option is B

Which equation is in point-slope form for the given point and slope?
faust18 [17]

Answer: y-7 = 4(x+3), choice B

============================================

Point slope form is generally

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

we have m as the slope and (x1,y1) as the point this line goes through. In this case,

m = 4

(x1,y1) = (-3,7) so x1 = -3 and y1 = 7

So,

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y - 7 = 4(x - (-3))

y - 7 = 4(x + 3)

which is why choice B is the answer

Consider the rates 4/5 miles in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 2/5 mile
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure exactly what's the question, but here's what I found. Lets first put it in our own words.

Consider the speed 4/5 miles in 12 minutes to travel 2/8.

8 + 4 = 12, so you can replace that with 12 minutes.

Now, you can absolutely guess your question.

Time = 12 minutes.

Distance = x (Let x be distance)

Speed = 4/5.

Now, you find distance.

Distance Formula: You can use the equivalent formula d = st which means distance equals rate times time.

So 4/5 × 12, is 9.6.

In fraction, if you have 1 numbers after the decimal point, multiply both numerator and denominator by 10. So 9.6 = (9.6 × 10) × 10 = 960.

Here is a pattern I found

2/5 divided by 4 is 1/10

4/5 divided by 8 is 1/10
