A game fair requires that you draw a queen from a deck of 52 ards to win. The cards are put back into the deck after each draw, and the deck is shuffled. That is the probability that it takes you less than four turns to win?
Answers
The probability (P) is winning in less than four turns can be decomposed as the following sum:
The probability of winning in one turn is
[tex]P(\text{Winning in turn 1})=\frac{\#Queens}{\#Cards}=\frac{4}{52}.[/tex]The probability of winning in the second turn is
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(\text{ Winning in the second turn})=P(\text{ Lossing (in turn 1)})\cdot P(\text{ Winning (in turn 2)}), \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in the second turn})=\frac{\#NoQueens}{\#Cards}\cdot\frac{\#Queens}{\#Cards}, \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in the second turn})=\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{4}{52}\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex]The probability of winning in the third turn is
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(\text{ Winning in the third turn})=P(\text{ Lossing (in turn 1)})\cdot P(\text{ Lossing (in turn 2)})\cdot P(\text{ winning (in turn 3)}), \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in the third turn})=\frac{\#NoQueens}{\#Cards}\cdot\frac{\#NoQueens}{\#Cards}\cdot\frac{\#Queens}{\#Cards}, \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in the third turn})=\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{4}{52}\text{.} \end{gathered}[/tex]Adding all together, we get
[tex]\begin{gathered} P(\text{ Winning in less than four turns})=\frac{4}{52}+\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{4}{52}+\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{48}{52}\cdot\frac{4}{52}, \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in less than four turns})=\frac{469}{2197}, \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in less than four turns})\approx0.2135, \\ \\ P(\text{ Winning in less than four turns})\approx21.35\% \end{gathered}[/tex]AnswerThe probability of winning in less than four turns is (approximately) 21.35%.

Answers
First, we are going to divide the figure and named new points X and Y as:
Now, we know that TS is the sum of TX and XS.
TS = TX + XS
Adittionally, TX has the same length of HJ, so:
TX = HJ = 14
Now, we want to know the length of YK, and we can calculate it using the following equation:
LK = LY + YK LY is also equal to HJ, so LY = 14
42 = 14 + YK
42 - 14 = YK
28 = YK
Finally, since T and S are midpoints, the length of XS is the half of the length of YK. It means that XS is:
XS = YK/2
XS = 28/2
XS = 14
Therefore, TS is equal to:
TS = TX + XS
TS = 14 + 14
TS = 28
Answer: TS = 28

Let x be a random variable representing the blood pressures of adults in the USA. Since it is normally distributed, we would apply the formula for determining z score which is expressed as
z = (mean - population mean)/standard deviation
From the information given,
population mean = 121
Standard deviation = 16
For stage 2 high blood pressure, the probability is
P(x greater than or equal to 160). It is also equal to 1 - P(x < 160)
Thus, for x = 160, we have
z = (160 - 121)/16 = 2.4375
From the standard normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to a z score of 2.4375 is 0.9927
P(x < 160) = 0.9927
P(x greater than or equal to 160) = 1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073
Converting to percentage, it is 0.0073 * 100 = 0.73%
b) If 2000 peaople were sampled, the number of people with stage 2 high blood pressure would be
0.73/100 * 2000 14.6
To the nearest person, it is 15 people
c) For stage 1, the probability is
P(140 < x < 160)
For x = 140,
z = (140 - 121)/16 = 1.1875
From the standard normal distribution table, the probability value corresponding to a z score of 1.1875 is 0.883
Recall, for x = 160, the probaility is 0.9927
Thus,
P(140 < x < 160) = 0.9927 - 0.883 = 0.1097
Converting to percentage, it is
0.1097 * 100 = 10.97%
d) The 30th percentile refers to all values of blood pressure below k, where k is the 30th percentile. This means that we would find
P(x < k) = 0.3
The z score corresponding to a probability value of 0.3 is - 0.52
Thus,
(k - 121)/16 = - 0.52
k - 121 = - 0.52 * 16 = - 8.32
k = - 8.32 + 121
k = 112.68
The pressure for the 30th percentile is 112.68

In a linear relationship, each step of x modifies the y value in the same way.
In the first table, when x = 1, y = 3 and when x = 2, y = 6. This is an increment of 3. If this is a linear relationship, we expect the next value of y to be the previous value plus 3, thus y = 9. But in the table shows x =3 and y = 12. We can rule out the first table.
With similar reasoning, in the second table, we see (1, 2) and (2, 5). This is an increase of the y value of 3. We expect the next value to be y = 8, but we see (3, 9). The second table is not a linear relationship.
In the third table, we see (1, -3) and (2, -5). This is a decrease of -2. We expect the next value of y to be y = -7, and we do see (3, -7). The next value should be y = -9, and the table shows (4, -9). Table 3 shows a linear relationship.
To be sure, let's see the 4th table. We see (1, -2) and (2, -4). This is a decrease of -2. The expected next value is y = -6, but the next point is (3, -2). Fourth table is not a linear relationship.
Thus, the correct answer is the top-right table.

Answers
The equation of a line in the slope intercept form is expressed as
y = mx + c
where
m = slope
c = y intercept
The formula for calculating slope is expressed as
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
where
x1 and y1 are the x and y coordinates of the initial point
x2 and y2 are the x and y coordinates of the final point
From the information given, the initial point is (- 2, - 4) and final point is (2, 8)
Thus,
x1 = - 2, y1 = - 4
x2 = 2, y2 = 8
By substituting these values into the slope formula,
m = (8 - - 4)/(2 - - 2) = (8 + 4)/(2 + 2) = 12/4 = 3
We would find the y intercept, c by substituting m = 3, x = - 2 and y = - 4 into the slope intercept equation. We have
- 4 = 3 * - 2 + c
- 4 = - 6 + c
Adding 6 to both sides of the equation,
- 4 + 6 = - 6 + 6 + c
c = 2
By substituting m = 3 and c = 2 into the slope intercept equation, the equation of the line is

Last year, Bob had $10,000 to invest. He invested some of it in an account that paid 10% simple interest per year, and he invested the rest in an account that paid 8% simple interest per year. After one year, he received a total of $820 in interest. How much did he invest in each account?
Answers
Given:
The total amount is P = $10,000.
The rate of interest is r(1) = 10% 0.10.
The other rate of interest is r(2) = 8%=0.08.
The number of years for both accounts is n = 1 year.
The total interest earned is A = $820.
The objective is to find the amount invested in each account.
Explanation:
Consider the amount invested for r(1) as P(1), and the interest earned as A(1).
The equation for the amount obtained for r(1) can be calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_1=P_1\times n\times r_1 \\ A_1=P_1\times1\times0.1 \\ A_1=0.1P_1\text{ . . . . .(1)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Consider the amount invested for r(2) as P(2), and the interest earned as A(2).
The equation for the amount obtained for r(2) can be calculated as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} A_2=P_2\times n\times r_2 \\ A_2=P_2\times1\times0.08 \\ A_2=0.08P_2\text{ . . . . . (2)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Since, it is given that the total interest earned is A=$820. Then, it can be represented as,
[tex]A=A_1+A_2\text{ . . . . . (3)}[/tex]On plugging the obtained values in equation (3),
[tex]820=0.1P_1+0.08P_2\text{ . . . . .(4)}[/tex]Also, it is given that the total amount is P = $10,000. Then, it can be represented as,
[tex]\begin{gathered} P=P_1+P_2 \\ 10000=P_1+P_2 \\ P_1=10000-P_2\text{ . }\ldots\ldots.\text{. .(3)} \end{gathered}[/tex]Substitute the equation (3) in equation (4).
