Answer: Odds in favor = Number of successes: Number of failures
Step-by-step explanation:
Example
A jewelry box contains 5 white pearl, 2 gold rings and 6 silver rings. What are the odds of drawing a white pearl from the jewelry box?
Number of successes = 5
Number of failures = 2 + 6 = 8
Numbers of ways to draw a white pearl: number of ways to draw another jewelry.
5:8
The odds are 5:8

Peter leaves Mitchell's house traveling 30 mph. Mitchell leaves 15 min later, trying to catch up to peter, going 40 mph. if they drive along the same route, how long will it take Mitchell to catch Peter?
Answer:
45 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
At 30 mph for 1/4 hour, Peter has a 7.5 mile head start. After he leaves, Mitchell closes that gap at the rate of 40-30 = 10 miles per hour. It will take him ...
t = d/s
t = (7.5 mi)/(10 mi/h) = 0.75 h
to catch Peter.
Mitchell will catch Peter in 45 minutes.
__
Alternate Solution
Another way to look at it is that Mitchell's 10 mph advantage is 1/3 of Peter's speed, so it will take 1/(1/3) = 3 times the period of Peter's head start:
3 × 15 minutes = 45 minutes . . . for Mitchell to catch Peter
_____
You can write equations involving time and distance and see where the distances traveled become the same. You need to be careful choosing the time reference, since you're concerned with Mitchell's travel time. I personally prefer to work "head start" problems by considering the differences in time and speed, as above. This is where you end up using the equations approach, anyway.
If a multiple choice test consists of questions, each of which with of which only 1 is correct, (a) in how many different ways can a student check off one answer to each question? (b) in how many ways can a student check off one answer to each question and get all the answers wrong? (a) The test can be answered in 25 ways.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information.
suppose a multiple choice test consists of 5 questions, each with 4 possible answers of which 1 is correct.:
So, we can now suggest that a person can answer each question in 4 different ways given that there are 5 different questions.
Thus, the students can check off one answer to each question in [tex]4^5 \ different \ ways[/tex]
= 4 × 34 × 4 × 4 × 4
= 1024 different ways.
From the 4 possible answers, since 1 will be correct, definitely 3 other answers will be incorrect.
Thus, the number of ways a student can check off one answer to each question and get all the answers wrong is = 3⁵
= 3 × 3 × 3 × 3 × 3
= 243 ways

One of the most spectacular and least known hummingbirds is the Marvelous Spatuletail, Loddigesia mirabilis, found in only in a single remote valley in northern Peru (see photo below). In this valley the mean density is 3 spatuletails per 100-hectare quadrat. (a) What is the probability a random quadrat contains less than 3 spatuletails
Answer:
P(x < 3) = 0.42319
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given information:
The mean density [tex]\lambda =[/tex] 3
Let x be the random variable that follows a Poisson distribution.
Therefore:
[tex]\mathtt{P(x) = \dfrac{e^{-\lambda} \lambda ^x}{x!}}[/tex] for x =1, 2, 3...
However, the probability that a random quadrat contains less than 3 spatuletails can be computed as:
[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) = \dfrac{e^{-3}3 ^0}{0!}+ \dfrac{e^{-3}3 ^1}{1!}+ \dfrac{e^{-3} 3 ^2}{2!} }[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} \dfrac{3 ^0}{0!}+ \dfrac{3 ^1}{1!}+ \dfrac{3 ^2}{2!} \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{1}+ \dfrac{3 }{1}+ \dfrac{9}{2} \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix} 1+3+ 4.5 \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]
[tex]\mathtt{P(x <3 ) =e^{-3} \begin{pmatrix}8.5 \end {pmatrix} }[/tex]
P(x < 3) = 0.42319

$20,000 was invested in a 3-year simple interest money market account. After 3 years,
the account balance was $32,000.
What was the interest rate for the account?
Step-by-step explanation:
Amount = principal + S. I.
S. I. = p * t * r / 100
32000 = 20000 + 20000 * 3 * r / 100
12000 = 600 r
r ( Rate of interest) = 20 %

What are the quadrants of the standard (x, y) coordinate plane below that contain points on the graph of the equation 4x - 2y = 8 ?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4x-2y=8
divide by 8
[tex]\frac{x}{2}+\frac{y}{-4}=1\\x~intercept=2\\y~intercept=-4\\also ~2y=4x-8\\y=2x-4\\slope=2\\[/tex]
so graph lies in third and fourth and first quadrants.
The graph lies in third and fourth and first quadrants.
What is graph?Graph is a mathematical representation of a network and it describes the relationship between lines and points. A graph consists of some points and lines between them. The length of the lines and position of the points do not matter. Each object in a graph is called a node.
Given:
4x - 2y = 8
Now, make the equation in standard form
4x/8 - 2y/8 = 8/8
x/2- y/4 = 1
Now,
y- intercept is -4
and x- intercept is 2.
Also, we can write 4x - 2y = 8 as
y= 2x-4 and slope= 2
Hence, graph lies in third and fourth and first quadrants.

Find the absolute value of negative 18.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I - 18I = 18
I - xI = x
Answer:
positive 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value of any number is just how far that number is from 0 on a number line
here are a few examples
|-23| = 23
|47| = 47
|-11| = 11
As you can see, in all 3 examples all numbers are positive.
To make it easier to understand, the absolute value of any numer is that number, but positive. Absolute values will always be positive no matter what.
