Answer: 0.476

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A = Event of choosing an even number ball.

B = Event of choosing an 8 .

Given, A lottery game has balls numbered 1 through 21.

Sample space: S= {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...., 21}

n(S) = 21

Then, A= {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)}

i.e. n(A)= 10

B= {8}

n(B) = 1

A∪B = {2,4,6,8, 10,...(20)} = A

n(A∪B)=10

Now, the probability of selecting an even numbered ball or an 8 is

P(A\cup B)=\dfrac{n(A\cup B)}{n(S)}

=\dfrac{10}{21}\approx0.476

Hence, the required probability =0.476

I totally forgot how to do #4. Can you plz explain?
Dahasolnce [82]
The answer is F because you would have to multiply both 4 and 3 to get 12. Then you add both of the exponents for X to get 5. You wouldn't have to do anything for Y because you can't add it to anything.

5x + 2y = 34<br> x= - 4y - 4
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

y = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

So, first you need to plug in -4y-4 for x. So, 5(-4y-4) + 2y=34. Now, use the distributive property and now it will become -20y -20 + 2y = 34. Add like terms which would be -20y + 2y = -18y. Now the equation is -18y - 20 = 34. Now use inverse operations and add 20 to both sides. Then the equation will be -18y = 54. When you divide -18 on both sides, you get y=-3.

Hope this helps :)
