First, add all of the shirts together (5+3+2) which equals 10 shirts in total.

a) The probability of selecting a red shirt would be 3/10 or 30% chance.

b) The probability that a black shirt would not be selected would be 8/10 or 80% chance.

a) What is the probability of randomly selecting a red shirt?

-> Probability can be solved with wanted outcomes divided by total outcomes

\frac{3}{5+3+2} =\frac{3}{10}

<u>Answer</u>: \frac{3}{10} or 30%

b) What is the probability that a randomly selected shirt is not

black?

-> Probability can be solved with wanted outcomes divided by total outcomes

\frac{(5+3+2)-2}{5+3+2} =\frac{10-2}{10} =\frac{8}{10}=\frac{4}{5}

<u>Answer</u>:  \frac{4}{5} or 80%

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3 of the bedspread is covered in race cars , therefore

1/3 of the bedspread is covered in stripes

2/4 of those 1/3 are red stripes

to find the fraction of the red stripes

2/4 x 1/3 = 2 / 12 = 1/6

Chelsea bought a computer on Monday for $1,300. Its value is predicted to decrease by $250 per year. Her brother George also bou
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. George’s computer is expected to have a value of $25 greater.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Chelsea bought a computer on Monday for $ 1,300, and its value is predicted to decrease by $ 250 per year, while her brother George also bought a computer on Monday, and the function g (x) = 1,100 - 175x predicts how the value of his computer is expected to change after x years, to determine whose computer is expected to have a greater value when it is 3 years old, and how much greater will it be, the following calculation must be performed:

Chelsea:

1,300 - (250 x 3) = X

1,300 - 750 = X

550 = X

George:

1,100 - (175 x 3) = X

1,100 - 525 = X

575 = X

Therefore, George’s computer is expected to have a value of $ 25 greater.

Quadratic Word Problems
Anit [1.1K]
4. Let the numbers be x - 2, x, and x + 2, where x is an odd number.
2(x² - 4) - 4x = (x + 2)² + 21
2x² - 8 - 4x = x² + 4x + 4 + 21
2x² - 4x - 8 = x² + 4x + 25
x² - 8x - 33 = 0
(x - 11)(x + 3) = 0

x = 11, or -3
When x = 11, x - 2 = 9, x + 2 = 13

When x = -3, x - 2 = -5, x + 2 = -1

Explanation: You are on the right track. However, rather than having three unknown variables, try to reduce your working out to one unknown variable. Since you know they are consecutive odd numbers, you can simply let x be the middle term and the other two be + and - 2, provided x is an odd number.

That will reduce your variable issues, and helps as the first and third provide a difference of two squares, and this works out very nicely.

Q5: is essentially the same process. Let your variables be something in the form of one unknown variable, and you should be okay from there. Let me know if you're stuck.
