The manager of an ice cream shop found that the probability of a new customer ordering vanilla ice is 7\9. What are the odds against a new customer ordering vanilla ice cream?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The odds-against a new customer ordering a vanilla ice cream are: 2/7 or 2 to 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Odds-against is the ratio of probability of non-occurrence of an event to the probability of occurrence of an event.

Let p be the probability that the new customer will order vanilla

Then

[tex]p = \frac{7}{9}[/tex]

Let q be the probability that the new customer will not order vanilla

[tex]q = 1-p\\= 1 - \frac{7}{9}\\= \frac{9-7}{9}\\=\frac{2}{9}[/tex]

Now the odds against formula is:

[tex]\frac{Probability\ of\ non-occurrence}{Probability\ of\ occurrence}= \frac{q}{p}\\=\frac{\frac{2}{9}}{\frac{7}{9}}\\=\frac{2}{9} * \frac{9}{7}\\=\frac{2}{7}[/tex]

Hence,

The odds-against a new customer ordering a vanilla ice cream are: 2/7 or 2 to 7

If you dilate a figure with scale factor r = 1/2, what scale factor do you use to reverse that dilation and move it back?

Answers

Answer:

r = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When a figure is dilated with scale factor r = 1/2, the figure is halved. To reverse it back to normal, you would have to double the halved figure. Doubling something is the same as dilating it with a scale factor of 2.

What are the three ways we can write ratios

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The most common way to write a ratio is as a fraction, 3/6. We could also write it using the word "to," as "3 to 6." Finally, we could write this ratio using a colon between the two numbers, 3:6. Be sure you understand that these are all ways to write the same number.

Three ways to write Ratios are : in form of fraction, in form of decimals. Consecutively, they can also be written in form of percentage.

Ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a & b , a : b , where b ≠ 0. It can be written in above mentioned 3 other forms

Considering example is 4 : 8

It can be represented in form of fraction 4 / 8 , that can further be reduced to  1  / 2 It can also be written in form of decimal, 1 / 2 = 0.5 It can also be written in form of percentage,  4/8 = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%

Answers

Answer: 1902.36

Step-by-step explanation:

When interest is compounded monthly , the formula to find the accumulated amount is

[tex]A=P(1+\dfrac{r}{12})^{12t}[/tex] , where P = principal value , r = rate of interest , t = time.

As per given,

r= 24% =  0.24

P= $1500

t= 1 year

Put all value in formula , we get

[tex]A= 1500(1+\dfrac{0.24}{12})^{12\times 1}\\\\=1500(1+0.02)^{12}\\\\=1500(1.02)^{12}\\\\=1500(1.26824179456)\approx1902.36[/tex]

Hence, he need to pay $1902.36.

A bed measures 57 inches by 76. What is the distance between opposite corners of the bed

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Because bed is rectangular and diagonal is dividing it into two right angled Δs , we are using Pythagorean Theorem c² = a² + b²

c² = 57² + 76²

c² = 3249 + 5776 = 9025

c = 95 inches

Answer:

The distance between opposite corners is: 95

Explanation:

Using the formula:

d=square root L^2+W^2

So, take the square root of 57^2+76^2

= 95

Which equation could be used to find how many hours, x, Ed has left in his road trip if he is traveling 638 total miles? A. 211x + 638 = 63 B. 211x + 63 = 638 C. 63x + 211 = 638 D. 63x + 638 = 211

Answers

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance already traveled by Ed [tex]=211[/tex] miles

Also, Ed is driving at a rate of 63 miles per hour.

Distance [tex]=[/tex] Speed × Time

Distance traveled by Ed in [tex]x[/tex] hours [tex]=63x[/tex]

Total distance traveled by Ed [tex]=211+63x[/tex]

Also, total distance traveled by Ed is [tex]638[/tex] miles.

Therefore,

[tex]638=211+63x[/tex]

Option C is correct.
