$$
dfrac{2}{4}=dfrac{1}{2}=0.5=50%

dfrac{1}{4}cdot dfrac{7}{10}=dfrac{7}{40}
$$

This means that the probability that somebody has both traits is $dfrac{7}{40}$.

$$

The probability of having the same blood type is then the combination O/O and A/A:

$$

$$
P(10)=dfrac{3}{36}=dfrac{1}{12}approx 0.083=8.3%
$$

$$
P(15)=dfrac{0}{36}=0=0%
$$

d. 7 is the most likely because 7 appears the most in the table3.

$$
P(7)=dfrac{6}{36}=dfrac{1}{6}approx 0.1667=16.67%
$$

Result

d. 7, $frac{1}{6}approx 0.1667=16.67%$

Exercise 7
Step 1
1 of 3
a. $d$ and $k$ are alternate interior angles:

$$
110=5x-20
$$

Add 20 to both sides of the equation:

$$
130=5x
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

$$
26=x
$$

Step 2
2 of 3
b. $b$ and $m$ are corresponding angles and $m$ and $n$ are supplementary angles, thus $b$ and $n$ are supplementary angles:

$$
4x-11+x+26=180
$$

Combine like terms:

$$
5x+15=180
$$

Subtract 15 from both sides of the equation:

$$
5x=165
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 5:

$$
x=33
$$

Determine $n$:

$$
n=x+26=33+26=59text{textdegree}
$$

Result
3 of 3
a. $x=26$

b. $x=33$ and $n=59text{textdegree}$

Exercise 8
Step 1
1 of 2
The upper cell contains the product of the left and right cell, while the lower cell contains the sum of the left and right cell.

a. Upper: $9cdot (-9)=-81$ and Lower: $9-9=0$

b. We thus need to find two numbers whose product is $-36$ and whose sum is 0, these numbers are then $-6$ and 6 and need to be filled in the left and right cell (order does not matter).

c. Right: $dfrac{-20}{4}=-5$ and Lower: $4-5=-1$

d. Left: $dfrac{1}{2}-dfrac{4}{5}=dfrac{5}{10}-dfrac{8}{10}=-dfrac{3}{10}$ and Upper: $-dfrac{3}{10}cdot dfrac{4}{5}=-dfrac{6}{25}$

b. $-6$ and 6

c. $-5$ and $-1$

Exercise 9
Step 1
1 of 3
Corresponding sides in similar figures have the same proportions.

a.
$$
dfrac{x}{6}=dfrac{4}{2}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6:

$$
x=dfrac{4cdot 6}{2}=12
$$

b.
$$
dfrac{x-5}{6}=dfrac{4}{3}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6:

$$
x-5=8
$$

Add 5 to both sides of the equation:

$$
x=13
$$

Step 2
2 of 3
c.

$$
dfrac{x}{21}=dfrac{3}{w}
$$

The perimeter is the sum of all sides and thus the width is:

$$
w=dfrac{60-21-21}{2}=9
$$

Replace $w$ with 9 in the equation:

$$
dfrac{x}{21}=dfrac{3}{9}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 21:

$$
x=dfrac{3cdot 21}{9}=7
$$

Result
3 of 3
a. $x=12$

b. $x=13$

c. $x=7$

Exercise 12
Step 1

$$
dfrac{1}{8}+dfrac{1}{12}+dfrac{3}{8}=dfrac{7}{12}approx 0.467= 46.7%
$$

Exercise scan

Step 2
2 of 3
c. No, because you would lose more than you win in general (since the probability to win is not 50%).

However you cannot be sure this will happen, you could also wins more in total in 100 games, but as you keep playing more games you will loose more than you win.

Result

a. Yes

b. $frac{7}{12}approx 0.467= 46.7%$

c. No

Exercise 14
Step 1
1 of 2
a. The probability of each path is the product of the probability of each branch it takes.

$$
dfrac{1}{3}cdot dfrac{1}{2}=dfrac{1}{6}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{3}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{3}cdot dfrac{1}{3}=dfrac{1}{9}
$$

Thus their sum is then:

$$
dfrac{1}{3}+dfrac{1}{6}+dfrac{1}{9}=dfrac{11}{18}=61.1%
$$

This method was used because the branches have been given.

b. Multiply the number of tries with the probability:

$$
dfrac{11}{18}cdot 100approx 61
$$

Thus about 61 times.

c. It is possible that he learned something since the number of succesfull attempts is larger than the number of expected succesfull attempts.

But it is also possible that it has happened randomly and not because of the learning ability, because 66 is still relatively close to 61.

a. 61.1%

b. About 61 times

c. See explanation

Exercise 15
Step 1
1 of 2
a. The probability of each path is the product of the probability of each branch it takes.

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{3}=dfrac{1}{6}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{3}=dfrac{1}{6}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{3}=dfrac{1}{6}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{2}=dfrac{1}{8}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{2}=dfrac{1}{8}
$$

$$
dfrac{1}{2}cdot dfrac{1}{2}=dfrac{1}{4}
$$

Thus their sum is then:

$$
A:dfrac{1}{6}+dfrac{1}{6}=dfrac{1}{3}=33.3%
$$

$$
B:dfrac{1}{6}+dfrac{1}{8}=dfrac{7}{24}=29.2%
$$

$$
C:dfrac{1}{4}+dfrac{1}{6}=dfrac{5}{12}=41.7%
$$

Thus it is best to use room C since it has the highest probability.

b. Yes, because you would expect for Romeo to find the cheese $41.7% cdot 10approx 4$ times and he finds it more times.

$$

b. Since 1 girl was already chosen, there are 9 girls out of 19 contestants left.

$$
dfrac{9}{20}=0.45=45%
$$

c. No, because the probability of part (a) differs from the probability of part (b). If they would have been independent, then the probability would have remained the same in (a) and (b).

$$
angle X=180text{textdegree}-65text{textdegree}-75text{textdegree}=40text{textdegree}
$$

Then we know that the two triangles are similar because of $AA$ and not congruent (because $overline{AB}$ and $overline{YZ}$ are not corresponding sides but are equal).

b. Neither, because the triangle has two different angle measure than the original triangle.

c. The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$:

$$

Step 1

a. Half of the spinner contains positive numbers and half of the spinner contains negative numbers, however, we note that the part of $-5$ is a lot bigger than the part of 6 (and the other two will lift each other) and thus we expect to lose money after many spins.

b. The expected value is the sum of the product of every possibility and the probability of that possibility happening:

$$
EV=6cdot dfrac{1}{4}+2cdot dfrac{1}{4}+(-5)cdot dfrac{3}{8}+(-2)cdot dfrac{1}{8}=dfrac{12}{8}+dfrac{4}{8}-dfrac{15}{8}-dfrac{2}{8}=-dfrac{1}{8}=-0.125

This agrees with what we had determined in (a).

METHOD 1

The expected value is the sum of the product of every possibility and the probability of that possibility happening and calculate the probability as the measure of the angle to the total angle of 360$text{textdegree}$:

$$
EV=dfrac{7}{360}cdot 100 +dfrac{353}{360}cdot 2=dfrac{700}{360}+dfrac{706}{360}=dfrac{1406}{360}approx 3.9

Determine the probability as the area of the region to the area of the circle (assume the radius is 1):

$$
EV=dfrac{7pi /360}{pi}cdot 100 +dfrac{353pi /360}{pi}cdot 2=dfrac{700}{360}+dfrac{706}{360}=dfrac{1406}{360}approx 3.9

a.
$$
EV=dfrac{1}{4}cdot x +dfrac{3}{4}cdot 2=dfrac{x}{4}+dfrac{6}{4}=dfrac{x+6}{4}
$$

Since the expected value should be 3:

$$
dfrac{x+6}{4}=3
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4:

$$
x+6=12
$$

Subtract 6 from both sides of the equation:

$$
x=6

b.
$$
EV=dfrac{4}{6}cdot x +dfrac{1}{6}cdot (-3)+ dfrac{1}{6}cdot 1=dfrac{4x}{6}-dfrac{3}{6}+dfrac{1}{6}=dfrac{4x-2}{6}
$$

Since the expected value should be 3:

$$
dfrac{4x-2}{6}=3
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 6:

$$
4x-2=18
$$

Add 2 to both sides of the equation:

$$
4x=20

Since the expected value should be 3:

$$
dfrac{9x+171}{36}=3
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 36:

$$
9x+171=108

Subtract 171 from both sides of the equation:

c. No, yellow would be a better choice, because the probability of yellow is greatest on the first spinner and the probability of each color is equal on the second spinner.

d. All possibilities that make the two colors not the same:

a. Since the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$ and the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal:

$$
82text{textdegree}+2x=180text{textdegree}
$$

Subtract 82$text{textdegree}$ from both sides of the equation:

$$
2x=98text{textdegree}
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 2:

$$
x=49text{textdegree}
$$

b. Since the sum of all angles of a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$ and the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal:

$$
71text{textdegree}+ 71text{textdegree}+x=180text{textdegree}
$$

Subtract 142$text{textdegree}$ from both sides of the equation:

Exercise 64
Step 1
1 of 2
An exponential function is of the form $f(x)=ab^x$. Evaluate the function at the given points:

$$
48=acdot b^2
$$

$$
750=acdot b^5
$$

Solve the first equation to $a$:

$$
a=dfrac{48}{b^2}
$$

$$
750=acdot b^5
$$

Replace $a$ with $dfrac{48}{b^2}$ in the second equation:

$$
750=dfrac{48}{b^2}cdot b^5
$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 48:

$$
15.625=b^3
$$

Take the cubic root of both sides of the equation:

$$
2.5=b
$$

Determine $a$:

$$
a=dfrac{48}{2.5^2}=7.68
$$

The equation then becomes:

$$
f(x)=7.68(2.5)^x
$$

Result

$$
f(x)=7.68(2.5)^x

Exercise 65

b. Corresponding sides in similar figures have the same proportions:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 11:

$$
x=dfrac{24cdot 11}{8}=33
$$

Determine $y$:

$$
dfrac{y-4}{18}=dfrac{8}{24}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 18:

$$
y-4=dfrac{8cdot 18}{24}=6

Add 4 to both sides of the equation:

Multiply both sides of the equation by 5:

Multiply both sides of the equation by $40$:

The probability is the number of favorible outcomes divided by the total number of possible outcomes:

a. Since OR is used, the event is a union. Addition rule: $P(Atext{ or }B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(Atext{ and }B)$:

$$
P(text{ club or face})=P(club)+P(face)-P(text{ club and face})=dfrac{13}{52}+dfrac{12}{52}-dfrac{3}{52}=dfrac{22}{52}=dfrac{11}{26}approx 0.423=42.3%
$$

b. Since AND is used, the event is a intersection.

$$
P(text{ club and face})=dfrac{3}{52}approx 0.058=5.8%
$$

The answer relates because we have used the probability of king and club.

Exercise 91
Step 1
1 of 2
We have seen in the previous section that if the angle is $11text{textdegree}$, then the ratio of the triangle is
$$
dfrac{Delta y}{Delta x}=dfrac{1}{5}
$$

If the angle is $22text{textdegree}$, then the ratio of the triangle is
$$
dfrac{Delta y}{Delta x}=dfrac{2}{5}
$$

If the angle is $45text{textdegree}$, then the ratio of the triangle is
$$
dfrac{Delta y}{Delta x}=1
$$

If $Delta y$ is zero (and thus angle 0$text{textdegree}$) and if the angle is 90$text{textdegree}$ (and thus a vertical line), then the slope triangles will not work.

Result

Exercise 92
Step 1
1 of 2
When the angle increases, the slope ratio will increase and when the angle decreases, the slope ratio decreases too.

The slope becomes zero if the angle is 0$text{textdegree}$ and the slope is undefined if the angle is 90$text{textdegree}$.

The slope ratio is more than 1 if the angle is more than 45$text{textdegree}$ and the slope ratio is less than 1 if the angle is less than 45$text{textdegree}$.

Exercise 94
Step 1

When the angle increases, the slope ratio will increase and when the angle decreases, the slope ratio decreases too.

The slope becomes zero if the angle is 0$text{textdegree}$ and the slope is undefined if the angle is 90$text{textdegree}$.

The slope ratio is more than 1 if the angle is more than 45$text{textdegree}$ and the slope ratio is less than 1 if the angle is less than 45$text{textdegree}$.

a. Since the ratio is $dfrac{6}{4}=1.5>1$, we know that the angle is more than 45$text{textdegree}$.

b. Isiah, because the slope ratio cannot be correct. The slope ratio has to be less than 1 because the angle is less than 45$text{textdegree}$.

c. Since the angle is more than 76$text{textdegree}$, we know that the slope ratio is more than 1 and thus $x$ is less than 9 (and nonzero and nonnegative).

Step 1
1 of 3
a. The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$.

$$
theta=180text{textdegree}-79text{textdegree}-90text{textdegree}=11text{textdegree}
$$

We know that the slope ratio is then $dfrac{1}{5}$

$$
dfrac{w}{12}=dfrac{1}{5}

Multiply both sides of the equation by 12:

$$
w=dfrac{12}{5}=2.4
$$

b. The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$.

$$
theta=180text{textdegree}-22text{textdegree}-90text{textdegree}=68text{textdegree}
$$

We know that the slope ratio of 22$text{textdegree}$ is $dfrac{2}{5}$

$$
dfrac{z}{8}=dfrac{2}{5}
$$

Multiply both sides of the equation by 8:

$$
z=dfrac{2cdot 8}{5}=dfrac{16}{5}=3.2
$$

Step 2

c. The sum of all angles in a triangle is 180$text{textdegree}$.

We know that the slope ratio of 18$text{textdegree}$ is about $0.325$

dfrac{x}{15}=0.325

$$

Divide both sides of the equation by 0.325:

$$

b. Because $Delta y$ is always opposite the angle.

c. Eddie uses the other angle (whose measure is not gven) and then $Delta x$ and $Delta y$ are interchanged.

Multiply both sides of the equation by $4$:

6.25approx 8cdot tan{38text{textdegree}}=x
$$

b.
$$
tan{73text{textdegree}} = dfrac{9}{x}

Multiply both sides of the equation by $x$:
