At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

a) Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

Odds are always expressed as ratios after calculating. Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

b) Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.

The probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question above has to do with odds and probability.

It is important to note that odds are expressed in the form of ratios while probabilities are expressed as fractions.

a) At a certain charity fundraiser, some guests will be randomly selected to receive a gift. The probability of receiving a gift is 3/25. Find the odds in favor of receiving a gift.(I got 3/28)

The formula for calculating odds from probability is Odds = Probability / (1 - Probability).

Probability = 3/25

Odds =(3/25)/(1 - 3/25)

= (3/25)/22/25

= 3/25 ÷ 22/25

= 3/25 × 25/22

= 3/22

Note that odds are always expressed as ratios.

Therefore, the odds in favour of receiving a gift = 3:22

Your answer for part a (I got 3/28) is wrong.

The correct answer is 3:22

b) A child has a box of candies which might have a toy inside. The odds against the box having a toy are 7/2. What is the probability of the box having a toy? I got 7/9.

The formula for calculating probability from odds is P = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Odds = 7/2 or 7:2

We convert the odds to fraction when calculating

Probability = Odds / (Odds + 1).

Probability = (7/2)/ (7/2 + 1)

Probability = (7/2)/9/2

Probability = 7/2 ÷ 9/2

= 7/2 × 2/9

= 7/9

Probability is always expressed as a fraction.

Therefore, the probability of the box having a toy is 7/9.

Your answer in part b(I got 7/9) is correct.

Miss Berk has 8 pairs of pajama pants and 3 pairs of slippers. Three pairs of the pajama pants are Harry Potter themed and one p

shusha [124]

The probability that both items will be Harry Potter themed is 1/8.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Total Number of pajama pants n(P) =8

Total number of slippers n(S)= 3

Number of Harry Potter themed Pajama pants n(H.P)=3

Number of Harry Potter themed slippers n(H.S)=1

We have to determine the probability of selecting pants and slippers that are both Harry Potter themed.

If two events A and B are independent, then the probability of A and B is given by

P(A and B)=P(A)*P(B)

Here the events selecting Harry potter themed pants and selecting harry Potter themed slippers are independent.

$P(Harry\ Potter\ pants)=\frac{n(H.P)}{n(P)}$

$=\frac{3}{8}$

$P(Harry\ Potter\ slippers)=\frac{n(H.S)}{n(S)} \\ =1/3$

$P(Harry\ Potter\ pants\ and\ Harry\ Potter\ slippers)=P(Harry Potter pants)\times P(Harry potter slippers)$

$=\frac{3}{8}\times \frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{8}$

Hence probability of selecting Harry potter themed pants and Harry potter themed slippers is 1/8

What is the answer Timothy curtain company is making curtains for a local hotel he wants each certain to be 48 inches long at th

Travka [436]

Answer:

180 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of each curtain = 48 inches. Let the length of the curtain in feet be represented by x.

But,

1 inch = 12 feet

So that,

48 inches = x feet

⇒ x = $\frac{48}{12}$

= 4

Thus,

48 inches = 4 feet

The number of feet of fabric needed for 45 curtains can be determined as:

45 x 4 feet = 180 feet

Therefore, 180 feet of fabric would be needed to make 45 curtains.
