Jake has a 1 in 5 chance of winning the egg and spoon race.

What is the probability that he will not win the race?

Answers

Answer 1

4/5

subtract 1/5 from 5/5.

Answer 2

Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

if he has a 1/5 of winning, the left over chances he has has to be towards losing because we already know his chance of winning, and there is no in between, so the left over is 4/5

Solve the system of linear equation. 2x-5= 14
3x+2y = 40

Answers

Answer:

x=9.5, y=5.75

Step-by-step explanation:

2x-5=14, 3x+2y=40

focus on 2x-5=14 first:

2x-5=14 (add 5 to both sides) 2x=19(divide both sides by 2) x=9.5

Now subtitute x into the second equation and find y:

3(9.5)+2y=40(simplify) 28.5+2y=40(subtract 28.5 on both sides) 2y=11.5(divide both sides by 2) y=5.75

X=9.5, Y=5.75. Step by Step Explanation is-
First take 2x-5=14
= 2x=14+5 ; 2x=19 ; x=19/2=9.5
Now take 3x+2y=40; We substitute the value of x with 9.5. So the equation is-
=3*9.5+2y=40 ; 2y+28.5=40 ; 2y=40-28.5=11.5 ; y=11.5/2=5.75.

Answer:

Instead of moving the 3x to the opposite side of the equation they moved the 2x. And the correct answer is x=-6 not x=6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Student Work:

2(x + 4) – 8 = 3x+10-4

2x + 8–8 = 3x + 6

2x = 3x + 6

-0.3125 is the decimal and the fraction is -5/16

The fifth term of a geometric sequence is 32 and the eighth term is 4.
(a) Find the ratio. (2 marks)
(b) Find the first term. (2 marks)
(C) Find the sum of the first 50 terms of the sequence. (3 marks)
What is the first term?

Answers

Answer:

a. 1/2

b. 512

c. 1024

Step-by-step explanation:

The nth term of a geometric progression can be written as;

Tn = ar^n-1

where a is the first term, r is the common ratio and n is the term number

From the question;

Fifth term = ar^4 = 32

Eight term = ar^7 = 4

a. We want to find the common ratio

What to do here is that we can divide the 8th by the 5th term

ar^7/ar^4 = 4/32

r^3 = 1/8

r^3 = (1/2)^3

Thus r = 1/2

b. First term

we can make a substitution in any of the two given terms

Let’s use the fifth term

ar^4 = 32

a * (1/2)^4 = 32

a * 1/16 = 32

a = 16 * 32

a = 512

C. Sum of the first 50 terms

To calculate this, we use the sum of terms formula

Sn = a(1- r^n)/1-r

a = 512 , n = 50 and r = 1/2

Making the substitution;

Sn = 512(1-(1/2)^50)/1-1/2

Kindly note that (1/2)^50 will be infinitesimally small and will be close to zero

So we can approximate (1/2)^50 to be zero

Hence;

Sn = 512(1-0)/0.5

Sn = 512/0.5

Sn = 1024

Kyle has $25 and gets a job walking Chihuahuas for $2 per hour. Sophia has $4 and walks Rottweilers for $9 per hour. How many hours will they both have to work to have the same amount of money?

Answers

Answer:

  3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let k represent Kyle's balance after h hours. Let s represent Sophia's balance after h hours. Then we have ...

  k = 25 +2h

  s = 4 +9h

We want to find h so that k=s:

  25 +2h = 4 +9h

  21 = 7h . . . . . subtract 4+2h

  3 = h . . . . . . . divide by 7

If both work 3 hours, they will have the same amount of money.
