What is the probability of randomly selecting a month pf year and not getting a month that ends in y?

Umnica [9.8K]2 years ago

Answer:

2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The months whose names end in 'y' include Jan, Feb, May, Jul.  The probability of randomly selecting a month whose name ends in 'y' is 4/12 (remember that there are 12 months in a year), or 1/3.

Thus, the probability of selecting a month whose name does NOT end in 'y' is 8/12, or 2/3.  Note that this event is the 'complement' of the first event:  

P(name does not end in 'y') = 1 - P(name does not end in 'y') = 1 - 1/3 = 2/3

Multiply everything in the parenthesis by 3.

9x - 24 = 4x + 6

Add 24 to both sides.

9x = 4x + 30

Subtract 4x from both sides.

5x = 30

Divide both sides by 5.

x = 6

Can someone please help me answer number 6!?! please!!

Hello there! Your answers would be:

a. 600 - 75x = y

b. 8 months

Need an Explanation?:


Part a:

Okay, so she has 600 dollars, and she has a monthly bill, but no income. This means she is not earning any money, only loosing some.

This equation will model your situation: 600 - 75x = y

This is because:

  • The 600 remains constant, you are taking away from it. The 75 x represents the amount from the total taken away after each month.
  • Again, she does not earn money, only spends it on her bill.
  • Y represents the total amount of money she has left after each month.

Part b:

This is asking us to see how many months it'll take for her to have $0. The question is telling us to have g(x) = 0. (This is just another way of saying y = 0, which translates to her having no money left)

So, plug 0 into the equation in place of y and solve for x.

600 - 75x = 0

<em>Start by subtracting 600 from both sides to work to isolate x.</em>

-75x = -600

<em>Next, divide -600 by -75 to finish isolating x and get your answer. </em>

X = 8

This means it will be 8 months before her checking account reaches 0.

<em>So, these are your final answers. I hope this helps, and have a great day! Please don't hesitate to ask if you need more help with this specific question! </em>
