Answer: P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{2}{21}

Given that

Total tickets = 10

Winning tickets = 6

\text {Possibility of getting a winning ticket }=^{10}C_6

For every three prizes, there’s one large prize

therefore,

\text{ Possibility of getting a large prize }=^6C_3

At this point,

P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{^6C_3}{^{10}C_6}\\\\=\frac{20}{210}\\\\=\frac{2}{21}

P(\text{a ticket is randomly chosen will award a large prize)}=\frac{2}{21}

<span>To find the probability of drawing a winning ticket that yields a large prize, we can ascertain probabilities for each outcome. The chance of selecting a winning ticket is 6/10, and for those winning tickets, 1/3 represents a larger prize. This translates to 2 larger prizes for every 10. Hence, the probability that a selected ticket grants a larger prize is 2/10 or equivalently, 1/5</span>

tester [12383]
The characterization of HIJK as a parallelogram arises from the fact that the midpoints of both diagonals coincide at (1, 0), which indicates that these diagonals bisect each other. To explicitly demonstrate this, we determine that the midpoints of the diagonals HJ and IK are equal, confirming HIJK's properties as a parallelogram.

A grocery store wants to examine the relationship between the sales amounts each day at two different locations, store A and sto
Leona [12618]

Response:

The average of the 10 sales figures for store A is $40,000.

Detailed explanation:

Provided;

yˆ= −3,000 + 1.2x...................... (1)

Where;

x = daily sales amounts at store A or the average of the 10 sales amounts for store A =?

yˆ = daily sales amounts at store B or the average of the 10 sales amounts for store B = $45,000

Substituting y = 45,000 into equation (1) and solving for x, yields:

45,000 = −3,000 + 1.2x

45,000 + 3,000 = 1.2x

48,000 = 1.2x

x = 48,000 / 1.2

x = 40,000

Consequently, the mean of the 10 sales figures for store A is $40,000.

Zina [12379]

Response:

a. 0.76

b. 0.23

c. 0.5

d. p(B/A) signifies the likelihood that a student with a visa card also possesses a MasterCard.

p(A/B) indicates the probability that a student with a MasterCard also has a visa card.

e. 0.35

f. 0.31

Detailed explanation:

a. p(AUBUC) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) - P(AnB) - P(AnC) - P(BnC) + P(AnBnC)

        = 0.6 + 0.4 + 0.2 - 0.3 - 0.11 - 0.1 + 0.07 = 0.76

b. P(AnBnC') = P(AnB) - P(AnBnC)

        = 0.3 - 0.07 = 0.23

c. P(B/A) = P(AnB)/P(A)

        = 0.3/0.6 = 0.5

e. P((AnB)/C) = P((AnB)nC)/P(C)

        = P(AnBnC)/P(C)

        = 0.07/0.2 = 0.35

f. P((AUB)/C) = P((AUB)nC)/P(C)

        = (P(AnC) U P(BnC))/P(C)

        = (0.11 + 0.1)/0.2

        = 0.21/0.2 = 0.31

Lindy works at a pizza restaurant and gets a 10% employee discount. She knows that if she orders d drinks and a medium pizza wit
PIT_PIT [12445]

Result: OPTION D.

Step-by-step reasoning:

The total cost for Lindy can be calculated employing the expression given in the task:

0.90(2.25d + 1.40t + 6)

Here, "d" signifies the drinks ordered and "t" represents the toppings on a medium pizza she selects.

Since she and her friends order 4 drinks alongside a medium pizza that includes 3 toppings, you can derive the total cost by substituting these values into the provided expression.

The values are:

d=4\\\\t=3

Upon substituting into the expression and performing the calculations, the result is:

 0.90(2.25d + 1.40t + 6)= 0.90(2.25(4) + 1.40(3) + 6)=\$17.28
