Answer:
The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Odd numbered tickets:
Probability of one is 1/5 plus half of 1/5.
Probability of 3 is half of 1/5.
Probability of 5 is 1/5. So
Probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket:
0.6*100% = 60%
The probability of drawing an odd numbered ticket is 60%.
So the numerator of your fraction (the top number) is the amount that was cut. The denominator (the bottom number) is the total amount of rope. So, your fraction would be 2/12. You can still simplify that by dividing both the numerator and denominator by 2 and end up with 1/6. Does that make sense? If you need any more help, go ahead and message me :)
Answer:
C. 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
The graph descends from the left so the coefficient of the leading term is negative. It is also a cubic equation with zeros of -20, about 6.5 and about 13. so we can write the equation as below. The last 2 values can only be guessed because the x axis only shows values which are multiples of 5.
f(x) = a(x + 20)(x - 6.5)(x - 13) where a is a negative constant.
(This is only an approximation).
By the Remainder theorem, when the expression is divided by (x + 10):
f(-10) = -20 so we have
-20 = a (-10 + 20)(-10-6.5)(-10 - 13)
(10)(-16.5)(-23)a = -20
a = -20 / (10)(-16.5)(-23)
a = -0.0053
When the equation is divided by (x - 10) then f(10) is the remainder so substituting we have as the remainder:
-0.0053(10+20)(10-6.5)(10 -13)
-0.0053 * 30 * 3.5 * -3
= 1.7 approximately.
Looks like the answer is 2.
