To find the answer you need to find the square root of e^2 to get e so what you do to one side of the equation you do to the other side of the equation so find the square root of 0.36.
e=positive or negative 0.6
Answer: 0.62
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : A recent Harris Poll survey of 1010 U.S. adults selected at random showed that 627 consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige.
i.e. The sample size of U.S. adults : n= 1010
The number of U.S. adults consider the occupation of firefighter to have very great prestige : x= 627
Now , the probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige will be :
[ To the nearest hundredth]
Hence, the estimated probability that a U.S adult selected at random thinks the occupation of firefighters has very great prestige = 0.62
Well I don't know.
Let's think about it:
-- There are 6 possibilities for each role.
So 36 possibilities for 2 rolls.
Doesn't take us anywhere.
New direction:
-- If the first roll is odd, then you need another odd on the second one.
-- If the first roll is even, then you need another even on the second one.
This may be the key, right here !
-- The die has 3 odds and 3 evens.
-- Probability of an odd followed by another odd = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
-- Probability of an even followed by another even = (1/2) x (1/2) = 1/4
I'm sure this is it. I'm a little shaky on how to combine those 2 probs.
Ah hah !
Try this:
Probability of either 1 sequence or the other one is (1/4) + (1/4) = 1/2 .
That means ... Regardless of what the first roll is, the probability of
the second roll matching it in oddness or evenness is 1/2 .
So the probability of 2 rolls that sum to an even number is 1/2 = 50% .
Is this reasonable, or sleazy ?
Use pythagorean’s theorem
as you can see it’s a right isosceles triangle
so your equation is adapted to this:
p^2 + p^2=44^2
add like terms and simplify
2p^2=1936
divide by 2
p^2=968
square root
p= √968
simplify
p=22√2
the answer would be your second option
