<h2><em>Result :</em></h2>

  • <em>Won</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>50</em><em>%</em>
  • Won = 50%<em>Draw</em><em> </em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>33</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>/</em><em>3</em><em>%</em>
  • Won = 50%Draw = 33 1/3%<em>Lost</em><em> </em><em>16</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>/</em><em>3</em><em>%</em>

<h2><em>Explanation</em><em> </em><em>:</em></h2>

Express the number of each result as a fraction of the total number of games played and multiply with 100.

  • The percentage of the games won is :

<h3>21/42 × 100 = <u>50</u><u>%</u></h3>

  • The percentage of the draw games is :

<h3>14/42 × 100 = 100/3 = <u>33</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u>/</u><u>3</u><u>%</u></h3>

  • The percentage of the games lost is :

<h3>42-21-14/42 × 100 = 7/42 × 100 = 50/3 = <u>16</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>/</u><u>3</u><u>%</u></h3>

Which statement(s) is (are) correct?
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

<em>statements 3 and 4 are correct.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

(1)

The probability of choosing cured pasta and bear= probability that the card is king.

Hence, The probability of choosing cured pasta and bear=\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}

Probability of choosing baked cucumber and lime mutton=probability that the card is 3.

as there are 4 cards that are '3'.

Hence Probability of choosing baked cucumber and lime mutton=\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}

as both the probabilities are equal.

Hence statement 1 is incorrect.

(2)

The probability of choosing gooseberry & passion fruit cheesecake= Probability taht the card is ace.

as there are 4 cards which are ace out of 52 cards.

Hence, The probability of choosing gooseberry & passion fruit cheesecake=\dfrac{4}{52}=\dfrac{1}{13}

probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=Probability that the card is a face card.

As there are 12 face cards out of 52 cards.

Hence, probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=\dfrac{12}{52}=\dfrac{3}{13}

Hence, the probability of choosing gooseberry and passion fruit cheesecake is smaller than the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator.

Hence statement 2 is false.

(3)

The probability of choosing a praline wafer=probability that the card is a diamond.

as there are 13 diamond cards out of 52 cards.

The probability of choosing a praline wafer=\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}

the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=Probability that the card is a face card.

As there are 12 face cards out of 52 cards.

Hence, probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator=\dfrac{12}{52}=\dfrac{3}{13}

Hence, The probability of choosing a praline wafer is greater than the probability of choosing poached fennel & lemon alligator.

Hence statement 3 is correct.

(4)

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =probability that the card is red.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence,  

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}

probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone =probability that the card is black.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence,  probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone=\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}

Hence, The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken and the probability of choosing an oven-baked apple & lavender calzone are the same.

Hence statement 4 is true.

(5)

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =probability that the card is red.

As there are 26 red cards out of 52 cards.

Hence,  

The probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken =\dfrac{26}{52}=\dfrac{1}{2}

the probability of choosing a praline wafer=probability that the card is a diamond.

as there are 13 diamond cards out of 52 cards.

The probability of choosing a praline wafer=\dfrac{13}{52}=\dfrac{1}{4}

Hence, the probability of choosing pressure-cooked mushroom & garlic chicken and the probability of choosing a praline wafer are not same.

Hence, statement 5 is not correct.

1. The most massive planet in the solar system, Jupiter, has a mass of about 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg. Estimate
UNO [17]

Answer:

D. 2*10^{27} kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Mass of Jupiter is given as 1,898,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg

Estimating this to the nearest whole number would be = 2,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 kg (rounding up the the "1,898")

To express this in scientific notation form, simply count how many zeros we have to the nearest whole number, 2.

We have 27 zeros there.

Therefore, we would multiply the whole number, 2, by 10 raise to the power of 27.

An estimate of the mass of Jupiter = 2*10^{27} kg
