<h3>
Answer: Choice B) 3:1</h3>
=============================================================
Explanation:
Consider a very small town of only 4 people.
If 1 person bikes to work, then 1/4 = 0.25 = 25% of the population commutes by bicycle. We see that the remaining 4-1 = 3 people don't travel by bike.
The odds against selecting someone who uses their bike to get to work is 3:1 which is why the answer is choice B
We list the number of people we don't want first, and then the number of people we do want (those who use a bike). A colon separates the two values to form the odds ratio.
We can say "3:1" as "3 to 1". It means we're 3 times more likely to select someone we don't want vs someone we do want. The odds are against the bike person which is why the value we don't want is listed first.
In contrast, if your teacher asked "what are the odds in favor of selecting someone who commutes by bicycle?" then the answer would be 1:3. We simply swap the positions of what we set up earlier.
Answer: {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}
Step-by-step explanation:
Presented symbolically, we have:
x^3 - 2x^2 - 5x + 6
Synthetic division is very useful for determining roots of polynomials. Once we have roots, we can easily write the corresponding factors.
Write out possible factors of 6: {±1, ±2, ±3, ±6}
Let's determine whether or not -2 is a root. Set up synthetic division as follows:
-2 / 1 -2 -5 6
-2 8 -6
-----------------------
1 -4 3 0
since the remainder is zero, we know for sure that -2 is a root and (x + 2) is a factor of the given polynomial. The coefficients of the product of the remaining two factors are {1, -4, 3}. This trinomial factors easily into {(x -1), (x - 3)}.
Thus, the three factors of the given polynomial are {(x + 2), (x - 1), (x - 3)}
Answer: yes
A prime factor is number that can only divided by itself and one
Since, 17 can only be divided by 17 and 1, the student is correct
Step-by-step explanation:
When you see the symbol "△", this denotes a triangle. Now combine the symbol with the letters FGH, this becomes △FGH, meaning a triangle FGH, with F, G, and H as the three points.
Now, the symbol "∠" means angle and "m∠" means the measure of an angle. So m∠F means the angle at the point F, m∠G means the angle at the point G, and m∠H means the angle at the point H. (I'll attach a diagram of this triangle).
Now we have to determine m∠H, which is the angle at point H. To do that, we have to find the value of 
. To do that, we have to use one of the laws of a triangle, which is:
The sum of angles in a triangle = 180°. This means when we add all the angles in a triangle, it sums up to 180°. Let's do that.
Now that we have found the value of x as 18°, we can substitute its value to determine the angle H.
I hope you understand the explanation.
Step-by-step explanation:
= (15 − 3) ÷ (2 + 1) × (8 − 6)
BODMAS rule
= (12) ÷ (3) × (2)
= (12/3) × (2)
= 4 × 2
= 8
