b. Drawing the name "Sally" from a hat and replacing it, and then drawing the name

Answers

The fact that one chooses an oatmeal cookie, eating it and then choosing a peanut butter cookie from a container of cookies is an independent event.

What is a dependent event?

It should be noted that dependent events influence the probability of the other events.

In this case, the fact that one chooses an oatmeal cookie, eating it, and then choosing a peanut butter cookie from a container of cookies is an independent event.

On the other hand, drawing the name "Sally" from a hat and replacing it, and then drawing the name "Malcolm" from the hat is a dependent event.

So, to find the mean they added up the scores from 20 seasons and divided by 20, the number of seasons to get an average score of 10.4.

10.4 = (x1 +x2 +x3 ... +x20 )/20

Then;

10.4*(20) = (x1 +x2 +x3 ... +x20 )

208 = sum of the first 20 seasons

We want to add one more number in there, the 21st season with a score of 14. Add the 14 to the sum of the first 20 seasons and then divide by 21, the new number of seasons you're averaging.

Mean = (208+14)/21

Find the distance between the two points rounding to the nearest tenth (if necessary). (-8,-6) and (-3,-4)

Answers

Answer:

9.8

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance is calculated using the formula d=√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)².
The first thing to do is subtract to find the necessary values.
X 8 - 4 = 4

Y -3 - 6 = -9

d=√(4)²+(9)²

d=√(16 + 81)

d=√97

d = 9.8488578018 or 9.8

Explain how you would add 38+45

Answers

Answer:

83

Step-by-step explanation:

first add whatever is in the 1's place so for 38, 8 is in the 1's place and for 45, 5 is in the 1's place

so first it will be 8+5 which is 13 so you are going to carry the 1 over to the tens place so now it will be 30 + 40 + 10 and that equals 80 so you add 80 and 3 which looks like 80+3 and that equals 83

Hamilton, NY has 73465 residents, and 12 members on their Board of Trustees. The three districts of Basel, Heights, and Dagonal have the following populations:
Basel: 13,244 Heights: 30, 415 Dagonal: 29,806
Determine the standard quota (to two decimal places) for the Dagonal district.



6) Gotham City is to apportion 16 seats to districts with populations as follows:
North: 785 South: 1,125 East: 1,950 West: 415
Find the standard divisor
What are the standard, lower, and upper quotas for the four districts?

Answers

a) The determination of the standard quota for the Dagonal district is 40.57%.

b) 1. The standard divisor is 267.19 (4,275/16).

2. The standard, lower, and upper quotas for the four districts are as follow:

                                North         South           East         West      

Standard quota     18.36%       26.32%     45.61%       9.71%

Lower quota             18%          26%            45%            9%

Upper quota             18%          26%            46%           10%

What is the quota method of apportionment?

The quota method of apportionment is the use of the standard divisor to round off standard quotas, according to some agreed ground norms.

When the standard quota is rounded down to an integer, it gives the lower quota, and rounding up gives the upper quota.

The standard divisor is calculated as the total population divided by the total number of seats.

The standard divisor gives the average number of people represented by a Board or seat member.

Which graph represents
y=\x-4

Answers

Answer:

The first answer choice is correct due to its Y-Intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

Of your 2 answer choices, the first answer choice is the best.

This is because your Y-Intercept is one of the most important things you look our first.

It should be (0,-4) which the first one clearly has.

Now, you could look at the growth, it is growing at a different rate that is increasing as opposed to a constant rate.

Both of them have that, but like I said the Y-Intercept Clearly exposed the right answer.

Therefore The first answer choice is correct.

Suppose that a commercial bakery produces chocolate chip cookies. Based on extensive testing, the bakery has determined that the ideal number of chocolate chips per cookie is 18. In the past, master bakers mixed the dough and spooned it onto sheet pans by hand, but the owners have decided to test a new machine.

The machine extrudes dough onto baking sheets at a uniform rate. It runs continuously from 5:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. The number of chips per cookie depends on the viscosity of the dough, and because the dough stiffens as it sits in the machine, the machine produces cookies that contain the optimal number of chips, 18 per cookie, between the hours of 6:00 a.m. and 11 a.m. The distribution of cookies is shown in the graph below.

Answers

Based on the times that the machine produces cookies that have the optimal amount of chips, the proportion produced daily with the optimal number of chips is 62.5% or 0.625.

What is the proportion of cookies with optimal chocolate chips?

This can be found by the formula:

= (Hours that optimal cookies are produced) / Hours that the machine runs per day

5:30 am is the same as 5.5 hours because 30 minutes is half an hour.

1:30 pm is also the same as 13.5 hours by the above rule and in 24 hour notation.

Proportion of optimal cookies is therefore:

= (11 am - 6am) / (13.5 - 5.5)

= 5 / 8

= 0.625

= 62.5%
