−1

Explanation:

Let's say the set of downs starts at the 20 yard line (maybe the kicking team kicked deep, the receiving team took a knee and so play starts at the 20).

Ok - we're at the 20. First down - they advance 5 yards. So we're now at the 25. We can write that mathematically as:

20 + 5= 25

So the second play they get sacked deep and lose 6 yards. So we subtract 6:

25 − 6=19

So what's the change in yardage for the 2 plays? We are on the 19 and started at the 20, so we can write:

19 − 20= −1

and this makes sense because we know we advanced 5 and fell back 6:

+5 −6 = −1

A teacher plans a simulation to estimate the probability that a student will pick a vowel out of a bag of 26 tiles, each with a
OleMash [197]

Answer:

No, because the probabilities of drawing a vowel versus a constant are not equally likely.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each number in a random number generator is equally likely.  If she assigns only the number 1 to vowels and only the number 2 to consonants, she will get results showing that they are equally likely.

In reality, 5 of the 26 letters are vowels (not including y).  The teacher should assign numbers 1 through 5 to vowels, and numbers 6 through 26 to consonants.  This will be a fair representation.

8+12+4= 24

This is the total amount of marbles. You’ll divide the green marbles by the total amount since you want the probability of green marbles.
