Answer:

The number of bacteria in 0.25 mL is 6.25 x 10^3.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 liter flask contains 1.25 x 10^8 bacteria.

So, 1liter flask contains = \frac{1.25 \times 10^8}{5} =2.5\times 10^7

Now

0.25 mL contains = 2.5\times 10^7 \times0.25\times 10^{-3} = 6.25\times 10^3

1. Miguel is playing a game in which a box contains four chips with numbers written on them. Two of the chips have the number 1,
zzz [600]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Miguel is playing a game

The box contains 4 chips, 2 with number 1, and other two differntly numbered as 3 and 5.

OUt of these 4, 2 chips are drawn

P(drawing same number) = 2C2/4C2 =\frac{1}{6}

Prob (drawing differnt numbers) = 1-1/6 =\frac{5}{6}

Hence prob of winning 2 dollars = \frac{1}{6}

Prob of losing 1 dollar = \frac{5}{6}

b) Expected value = sum of prob x amount won

= \frac{1}{6}2+\frac{5}{6}(-1)=-\frac{1}{2}

c) Miguel can expect to lose 1/2 dollars for every game he plays

d) If it is to be a fair game expected value =0

i.e. let the amount assigned be s

Then \frac{1}{6}s-\frac{5}{6}=0\\s=5

Complete the following proof. Given: Points R, S, T, Q on circle O Prove: m\overarc RS + m\overarc ST + m\overarc TQ + m\overarc
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

360°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

R, S, T and Q are the points on a circle O.

Since, "measure of an arc of a circle is equal to the measure of the angle subtended by the arc at the center."

By this statement,

m(\widehat{RS})=m(\angle ROS)

m(\widehat{ST})=m(\angle SOT)

m(\widehat{TQ})=m(\angle TOQ)

m(major arc RQ) = m(∠QOR)

Now m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = m(\angle ROS)+m(\angle SOT)+m(\angle TOQ)+m(\angle QOR)

Since sum of all angles at a point = 360°

m(\widehat {RS})+m(\widehat{ST})+m(\widehat{TQ}) + m(major arc RQ) = 360°
