The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders

the day before the game was released. He used that data to create a simulation to predict the probability that future customers will cancel their preorders.
According to the manager’s model, what is the probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released?

Answer:    \frac{1}{16}


Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The manager of a video game store found that 35 of the 140 people who preordered the latest baseball game canceled their orders the day before the game was released.

The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released

=\frac{35}{140}\times\frac{35}{140}=\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{16}

Hence, The probability that two customers who preorder the newest golf game will both cancel their orders the day before the game is released is \frac{1}{16}.

nalin [4]
<h2>Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that , A pharmacist 13% alcohol solution another 18% alcohol solution .

Let he took x gram solution of 1^{st} type solution

and he took (50-x) gram of 2^{nd} type solution.

Total  amount of alcohol =[x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ] gram

Total amount of solution = 50 gram

According to problem

⇔\frac{ [x\times\frac{13}{100}] +[(50 -x) \times\frac{18}{100} ]}{50}= \frac{14}{100}

⇔\frac{13x +900-18x}{100\times50} =\frac{14}{100}

⇔- 5x= 700 - 900

⇔5x = 200

⇔x = 40 gram

Therefore he took 40 gram of 1^{st} type solution and (50 -40)gram = 10 gram of 2^{nd} type solution.

A function f(x) has x intercepts of -3 and -5. What is the constant term in the function?
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The constant term in the function is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

f(x)=x^{2}+8x+b

where

b is the y-intercept or the constant term of the function

Remember that

The x-intercept is the value of x when the value of the function is equal to zero

so

For x=-3 ----> f(x)=0

For x=-5 ----> f(x)=0

substitute any of the intercepts in the function

For x=-3

0=(-3)^{2}+8(-3)+b

0=9-24+b

0=-15+b

b=15

f(x)=x^{2}+8x+15

Verify with the other intercept

For x=-5

0=(-5)^{2}+8(-5)+15

0=25-40+15

0=0 ---> is true

therefore

The constant term in the function is 5

Lera brought a watermelon that weighed b kg to a party. Nick brought a box of candies. How much is the weight of the box of cand
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

1.5b (kg)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by listing out the variables we were given:

weight of the watermelon = b (kg),

weight of watermelon = (2/5) * weight of candies

weight of candies = 1 ÷ (2/5) = 1 ÷ 0.4

weight of candies = 2.5b (kg)

How much is the weight of the box of candies greater than the weight of the watermelon is given by:

weight of the box of candies - weight of watermelon= 2.5b - b = <u>1.5b</u> (kg)

<u>Therefore, the weight of the box of candies is greater than the weight of the watermelon by 1.5b (kg) </u>

What is the sum of the rational expressions below?<br> 3x-1/2x + 3x/x-1
Elden [556K]
In order to find the sum of the given rational expressions above, here are the steps.
Firstly, you need to find the LCM of the least common denominator.
So it would look like this: 
<span>3x-1 +   3x            (3x-1)(x-1) + (2x)(3x)
------    -------    =    ---------------------------
  2x       x-1                  2x(x-1)

3x^2-4x+1+6x^2
----------------------
    2x(x-1)
And the final result would be this:
9x^2-4x+1
--------------
  2x(x-1)

</span>9x^2-4x+1
--------------
  2x^2-2x
<span>
Hope that this is the answer that you are looking for.

Raymond can paint 5/8 of a wall in 16minutes. How long would it take him to paint 1/3 of a wall?
givi [52]

Answer:

128/15 min or 8.5 min

Step-by-step explanation:

By using unitary method,

Time required to paint 5/8 of wall = 16 min.

Time required to paint 1/1 of wall = 16×8/5

Hence, Time required to paint 1/3 of wall = 16×8/5×1/3
