Answer:
This is the same as writing (n-m)/n
Don't forget about the parenthesis if you go with the second option.
==================================================
Explanation:
The probability that she wins is m/n, where m,n are placeholders for positive whole numbers.
For instance, m = 2 and n = 5 leads to m/n = 2/5. This would mean that out of n = 5 chances, she wins m = 2 times.
The probability of her not winning is 1 - (m/n). We subtract the probability of winning from 1 to get the probability of losing.
We could leave the answer like this, but your teacher says that the answer must be "in the form of a combined single fraction".
Doing a bit of algebra would have these steps
and now the expression is one single fraction.
Answer:
In the equation of a straight line (when the equation is written as "y = mx + b"), the slope is the number "m" that is multiplied on the x, and "b" is the y-intercept (that is, the point where the line crosses the vertical y-axis).
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a system of equations,
This will translate into a 2x2 matrix of coefficients (because 2 equations and 2 unknowns),
The matrix will then be applied to the vector (lower dimensions on top),
And the result vector will be whats on the other side of equals sign,
So to put everything together,
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
50/50. there is no outside force that decides otherwise
