Step-by-step explanation:

since the total number of players is 44, the Universal set will also be 44.

let C be the set for Comedy

let T be the set for Tragedy

let H be the set for Histories

ξ = { 44 }

C = { 11 }

T = { 17 }

H = { 16 }

probability T = (17/44)

odds of selecting T = probability not T

= 1 - probability T

= 1 - ( 17/44)

= 27/44

you need to give the answer as a ratio of odds of selecting T against chances of selecting T;

if out of 44 players, the chances of not selecting T is 27 and the chances of selecting T is 17, then:

odds against selecting random is, 27: 17

that's the answer. hope this helps you!

You have $55,000 in your savings account that pays 2.5% annual interest and the inflation rate is 3.4%. how much buying power in
lianna [129]
Your interest formula is given to you. 

<span>Interest in a year = principal (the amount invested) * rate (the interest rate) * period (the time you're measuring) </span>

<span>Interest = 55,000 * 2% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.02 * 1 = $1,100 </span>

<span>How much would you need to have made for your spending power to keep with inflation? Your interest rate would have needed to match the inflation rate, otherwise, prices are going up faster than you're saving. </span>

<span>Required interest = 55,000 * 3.24% * 1 year = 55,000 * 0.0324 * 1 = $1,782 </span>

<span>How much buying power did you lose? The difference between your required interest and your actual interest. </span>
<span>Buying power lost = 1,782 - 1,100 = $682. You lost this much in buying power. </span>

I need the answer please I don't know it
Vlad1618 [11]
Basically the question is asking you for the area of the triangle.
The formula to find the area of a triangle is base x height divided by 2.
So in this case you would do 27 x 15.5 = 418.5
Now you divide by 2 (209.25)
So the answer is D. Hope this helps!!
