To solve this problem you must apply the proccedire shown above:

1. You have that the odds against an event E occurring are 12 to 3. Therefore, you have:

total outcomes=12+3=15

2. Then, you have that the probability of the event E occurring is:

1-12/15=1/5

The answer is: 1/5

Find four consecutive even integers whose sum is 84. Find the integers.

mina [271]

Suppose the integers are n , n+2 , n+4 and n+6.
84=n+(n+2)+(n+4)+(n+6)=4n+12.
Subtract 12 from both ends to get.
72=4n.
Divide both ends by 4 to get.
n=18.
So the integers are: 18 , 20 , 22 , 24.

A curve has equation y = x²(x - 2) Work out the gradient of the curve at the point (3,9).

slava [35]

Answer:

y = x^2 (x - 2) = x^3 - 2 x^2

dy/dx = 3 x^2 - 4 x

At x = 3 dy/dx = 3 * 9 - 4 * 3 = 15 The slope (gradient) of the curve
