If one of the 255 subjects is randomly selected, find the probability that the person is over 40 years of age.

Out of all the given situations, all are fair gambles,

Any gamble is considered to be a fair gamble if the expectation of it is 0. Here, gamble means any situation which has a probabilistic uncertainty attached to it.

The expectation of any game is

E(X) = ∑xp(x)

In the first case

The probability to get a had or tails on flipping a coin is 1/2

Hence the expectation will be

E(X) = 0.5 X 10  +  0.5 X (-10)

= 5 - 5

= 0

Hence this is a fair gamble

In the next gamble, two coins are tosses

The probability to get 2 head is 1/4

The probability to get 2 tails is 1/4

The probability to get one head and one tail is 1/2

Hence,

E(X) = 0.25 X 10  +  0.25 X (-10)  +  0.5 X 0

= 2.5 - 2.5

= 0

Hence this too is a fair gamble

Here,it is given that

Probability              Gain

0.5                            $100

0.25                       - $200

0.25                           $0

Therefore,

E(X) = 0.5 X 100  +  0.25 X (-200)  +  0.25 X 0

= 50  - 50

= 0

Hence, all are fair gambles.

The distance around the bases in meters will be 27.432 meters.

How many meters are in 1 feet?

In one feet there are 0.3048 meters.

Given is a baseball field measures 90 feet between each base.

Distance between each base in feet = [d] = 90 feet

The distance between each base in meters will be -

D [meters] = 90 x 1 ft

D [meters] = 90 x 0.3048 meters

D [meters] = 27.432 meters

Therefore, the distance around the bases in meters will be 27.432 meters.

The equation of the graph is a straight line written in slope-intercept form as y = -33.3x + 450. When Misty travelled for 9 hours, he drove 150.3 miles.

The general equation of a straight line is y = mx + c, where m is the slope of the line and c is the y-intercept. It is the most common form of the equation of a straight line that is used in geometry. The equation of a straight line can be written in different forms such as point-slope form, slope-intercept form, general form, standard form, etc. A straight line is a two-dimensional geometrical entity that extends on both its ends till infinity.

The equation of a straight line is a mathematical equation that gives the relation between the coordinate points lying on that straight line. It can be written in different forms and tells the slope, x-intercept, and y-intercept of the line. The most commonly used forms of the equation of straight line are y = mx + c and ax + by = c. Some other forms are point-slope form, slope-intercept form, general form, standard form, etc. Let us go through the formula for the equation of a straight line

13: The equation of graph in slope-intercept form

But for this case, we will represent our equation using point-slope formula which is y = mx + c

Let's find the slope of the line.

To do this, we will pick any two points and solve for the slope.

A = (0, 450), B = (6, 250)

The equation of slope of a line is given as

m = y₂ - y₁ / x₂ - x₁

m = 250 - 450 / 6 - 0

m = -200/6

m = -33.3

The y-intercept is the point which the line touches the y-axis or y-plane and in this case, the y-intercept is 450.

The equation of the line is y = -33.3x + 450

14: If he has been travelling for 9 hours, how many miles left ?

Using the equation y = -33.3x + 450; put x = 9

y = -33.3(9) + 450

y = 150.3 miles

Misty has 150.3 miles left.

15: If there are 50 miles in the trip left, how many hours has Misty travelled.

Using the equation y = -33.3x + 450

50 = -33.3x + 450

-400 = -33.3x

x = 12 hours

Misty has approximately travelled 12 hours.

The side lengths of the fence he can build with the greatest area inside are of:

75 yards and 75 yards.

Considering a rectangle of length l and width w, we have that the area and the perimeter of the rectangle are given as follows:

A farmer has 300 yards of fencing, hence the perimeter is:

P = 300.

Then:

2(l + w) = 300

l + w = 150

l = 150 - w.

Then the equation giving the area of the fence is:

A = lw

A = w(150 - w)

A = -w² + 150w.

Which is a quadratic equation with coefficients given by:

a = -1, b = 150.

The width that will give the highest possible area is the x-coordinate of the vertex, hence:

w = -150/(2(-1)) = 75 yards.

The length is of:

l = 150 - w = 150 - 75 = 75 yards.

Answer:

x= −1 and y= 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step One: Rewrite Equations

x+ 4y = 11

3x +5y = 12

Step Two: Solve x +4y = 11 for x:

x +4y = 11

x +4y + −4y = 11 + −4y (Add -4y to both sides)

x = −4y +11

Step Three: Substitute −4y +11 for x in 3x +5y = 12:

3x +5y = 12

3(−4y +11) +5y = 12

−7y +33 = 12 (Simplify both sides of the equation)

−7y +33 +−33 = 12 +−33(Add -33 to both sides)

−7y = −21

(-7y/-7) = (-21/-7) (Divide both sides by -7)

y = 3

The valid conclusion about statement A and statement B is "If Figure A is a parallelogram, then Figure A’s angles sum to 360°".

The correct answer option is option D.

A conditional statement can be defined a statement that is written in the form “If A then B,” where A and B are sentences.

For this conditional statement:

Sentence A is called the hypothesis

Sentence B is called the conclusion.

Hypothesis: This is an assumption taken to be true for the purpose of argument or investigation.

Conclusion: This is the proposition that follows as a necessary consequence of the premises in an argument or syllogism.

Hence, “If A then B” means that B must be true whenever A is true.

Therefore, if a figure is a parallelogram, then it is a quadrilateral; If a figure is a quadrilateral, then its angles sum to 360°.

The image of the given point after the translation will be (-5,1).

The given point is (0,2).

We have to find out the image of the given point after a translation left 5 units and up to 1 units.

Since it is given that there is a translation left 5 units, starting from point (0,2), the image will be on the negative side of x-axis at point 3.

Similarly, it is given that there is also a translation up to 1 units. This implies starting from point (0,2), the image will be on the positive side of y-axis at point 1.

To find that if a is an integer, then 7 divides a^7 -a or a⁷- a is divisible by the number 7

We can write, where k is an integer

a^7−a=7k

a(a^6−1)=7k

Now if a=k then

a^6−1=7

a^6=8

and a=±1.414 so a^7−a=9.898

If a is not equal to k then
