#1

The uniforms are numbered 0, 1, 2, ..., 99. That's 100 numbers. Half of them are odd and half of them are even. So the probability that any one of the uniforms is odd is 1/2 just like the probability that any one uniform is even is 1/2.

(a) The numbers on the uniforms are independent of one another. That is, the number of her cross-country uniform does not in any way determine the number on her basketball uniform and vice versa. This means that we can find the probability that each is odd and multiply these together using what is called the counting principle. The probability that all are odd is:
(1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8

(b) This is done the same way we did part (a). Since the probability of any one uniform being odd is the same as it being even (1/2), the answer here is the same: (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8

(c) This problem differs from that in (a) and (b). There is only one way for all three uniforms to be odd numbers: (odd, odd, odd) or all even (even, even, even). However, there are multiple ways for the uniforms to be two odd and one even. If the uniforms are listed in order: cross-country, basketball, softball we can get exactly one even in any of three ways:
even, odd, odd
odd, even, odd
odd, odd, even
The probability for any one of these possibilities is (1/2)(1/2)(1/2)=1/8 but since there are three way the probability that we get even exactly once is equal to (3)(1/8) = 3/8

Which equation represents a line which is perpendicular to the line 2x + y = -5?
Gnesinka [82]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given expression;

   2x + y  = -5;

  The given equation must be written in a form where the slope is the negative inverse of the given one.

A line perpendicular to another will have a negative inverse slope.

   2x + y  = -5

  Equation of a straight line is generally written as;

       y  = mx + c

y and x are the coordinates

m is the slope

c is y - intercept

          2x + y  = -5

                 y  = -2x -5

 The slope of the perpendicular = \frac{1}{2}

So,

the new line;

            y  =  \frac{1}{2}x  -5

Any line with slope of  \frac{1}{2} will be perpendicular

8/x=14/7 what does x equal
Veronika [31]

Answer:

when you have two fractions that equal each other you want to solve by using cross multiply

What cross multiply is, is when you multiply diagonally so:

8/x=14/7

you would take 14*x and 8*7

14x=56 (you would then divide each side by 14)

x=4 (14/14=1, 56/14=4)

8/4=14/7

To check your work you could simplify

8/4=2

14/7=2

2=2, which is true

x=4

Hope this helps ;)
