The probability that Caroline wins a raffle is given by the expression
m/n.
Write down an expression, in the form of a combined single fraction, for the probability that Caroline does not win.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  [tex]\frac{n-m}{n}[/tex]

This is the same as writing (n-m)/n

Don't forget about the parenthesis if you go with the second option.

==================================================

Explanation:

The probability that she wins is m/n, where m,n are placeholders for positive whole numbers.

For instance, m = 2 and n = 5 leads to m/n = 2/5. This would mean that out of n = 5 chances, she wins m = 2 times.

The probability of her not winning is 1 - (m/n). We subtract the probability of winning from 1 to get the probability of losing.

We could leave the answer like this, but your teacher says that the answer must be "in the form of a combined single fraction".

Doing a bit of algebra would have these steps

[tex]1 - \frac{m}{n}\\\\\frac{n}{n} - \frac{m}{n}\\\\\frac{n-m}{n}\\\\[/tex]

and now the expression is one single fraction.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point U divides segment SP into the ratio 1 : 2. So, segment SU is 1/2 the length of segment UP.

  SU = UP/2 = 3.6/2 = 1.8

The length of PS is ...

  PS = PU +US = 3.6 +1.8

Answer:

(i) 7/10

(ii) 3/10

(iii) 1/5

(iv) Rs 40,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The fraction of the salary spent on food = 1/2

The fraction of the salary spent on rented house fee = 1/5

(i) The fraction spent for both food and rental fee = (1/2) + (1/5) = (5 + 2)/10 = 7/10

(ii) The remainder (rest) of the salary = 1 - 7/10 = 3/10

The fraction of the remainder spent for children's education = 1/3

The fraction of the total salary spent for the children's education = (1/3) × (3/10) = 1/10

(iii) The remaining portion deposited in the bank = 1 - (1/10 + 7/10)) = 2/10 = 1/5

(iv) The amount equal to portion of 1/5 of his salary deposited in the bank is Rs 8000

Let x represent his whole salary, we have;

(1/5) × x = Rs 8,000

x = 5 × Rs 8,000 = Rs 40,000

His whole salary is Rs 40,000.

i have 17 coins. N of them are nickels and the rest are dimes. write an expression in two different ways for the amount of money that i have

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(N)0.05 + (17-N)0.1 = M; M = amount of money I have.

Or 1.7-0.05N = M.

An expression two different ways to  the amount of money is equals to

1. 5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

2. N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

What is amount?

" Amount is defined as the total of any given quantity."

According to the question,

Total number of coins = 17

Number of nickels coins = N

Number of dimes coin = 17 - N

'Y' express the amount of money

Represent amount of money in cents

1 dime = 10 cents

1 nickel = 5 cents

Expression to represents amount of money in cents,

5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

Expression to represents amount of money in nickels,

1 dime = 2 nickel

N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

Hence, an expression two different ways to  the amount of money is equals to

1. 5N + 10 (17 -N)  = Y cents

2. N + 2(17 - N) = Y nickels

3 Answers: Choice B, C, and D

Basically, everything except choice A.

=========================================================

Explanation:

All exponential functions can be written into the form y = a*b^x

The b term determines if we have growth or decay.

If 0 < b < 1, then we have decay. If b > 1, then we have growth.

------------

For choice A, we have b = 1.7 which satisfies b > 1. This represents growth. So we cross choice A off the list.

Choice B looks almost identical since it appears b = 1.7 here as well, but note the negative exponent. It might help to rewrite choice B into y = 3( 1.7^(-2) )^x and note how b = (1.7)^(-2) = 0.346 approximately. This represents decay.

Choice C has b = 1/3 = 0.33 approximately which is also decay.

Finally, choice D has b = 2^(-1) = 1/(2^1) = 1/2 = 0.5 which is also decay.

Choices B through D have b values such that 0 < b < 1.

------------

Check out the graph below. It visually confirms the answers mentioned earlier. A growth function goes uphill as we move to the right, while a decay function moves downhill while moving to the right.

Answers

Answer:  x = 9

=======================================================

Explanation:

The smaller angles HGE and EGF combine to form the largest angle HGF.

This is an example of the angle addition postulate.

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

(3x+11) + (110) = 16x+4

3x+121 = 16x+4

121-4 = 16x-3x

117 = 13x

13x = 117

x = 117/13

x = 9 which is the final answer

We can stop here.

--------------------

Extra info (optional section)

Use this x value to find each angle shown below

angle HGE = 3x+11 = 3*9+11 = 27+11 = 38 degreesangle HGF = 16x+4 = 16*9+4 = 144+4 = 148 degrees

Then notice how,

(angle HGE)+(angle EGF) = 38+110 = 148

which is exactly the measure of angle HGF

This confirms that the equation

(angle HGE) + (angle EGF) = angle HGF

is true for that x value of x = 9. Therefore, the answer is confirmed.

a trader is given 15% discount on goods bought from a factory. If the original price of an item in the factory is 45000. Calculate the amount the trader paid for them​

Answers

Answer:

38,250

Step-by-step explanation:

Its a 15% discount so youre only paying 85% of the original 45,000. You then multiply 45,000 by .85 to find what youre paying because the decimal version of 85% is .85. You can find the decimal version of a percentage by dividing the percentage by 100; 85/100=.85. Once you multiply 45,000 by .85 you get 38,250.
