You choose two different movies on a list at random. Out of 15 movies on the list, 9 are action movies. The first movie you choose is an action movie. What is the probability that the second movie is also an action movie? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

the probability is 8/15 depending on whether the problem counts the drawing one out of the bag as one gone. Leaving the first one drawn, the probability would be 3/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

number of action movies/total number of movies= 9/15=3/5

3/5 is the probability of drawing an action movie from the bag. However, since you just drew one out, the fraction changes to 8/15.

What is the slope of a line that passes through the points (2, 0) and (5, 0)? Explain.incorrect answer: 0; The change in \(x\) is 0 because the x-values do not change. So, the slope is 0.a) 0; The change in y is 0 because the y-values do not change. So, the slope is 0.b) undefined; The change in x is 0 because the x-values do not change. So, the slope is undefined. c) undefined; The change in y is 0 because the y-values do not change. So, the slope is undefined.d) 2/5; To find slope, divide the x-value of the first point by the x-value of the second point. So, the slope is 2/5.e) 5/2; To find slope, divide the x-value of the second point by the x-value of the first point. So, the slope is 5/2.

Solve by using the quadratic formula.
3psquared+7p+2=0

Answers

Answer:

-1/3,-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula is [-b±√(b^2-4ac)]/2a.  In this equations 3p^2 is a, 7p is b, and 2 is c.

Then just plug in the numbers.

[-7±√((-7^2)-4(3)(2)]/2(3)

[-7±√(25)]/6

(-7+5)/6  and  (-7-5)/6

-1/3 and -2 are the answers, if you plug these numbers into the original equation, you find that they equal 0 which means that they work.

Answer:

\large\boxed{x=-2\ or\ x=-(1)/(3)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula of a quadratic equation

ax^2+bx+c=0\n\nx=(-b\pm√(b^2-4ac))/(2a)

We have the equation:

3p^2+7p+2=0\to a=3,\ b=7,\ c=2

Substitute:

b^2-4ac=7^2-4(3)(2)=49-24=25\n\n√(b^2-4ac)=√(25)=5\n\nx_1=(-7-5)/(2(3))=(-12)/(6)=-2\n\nx_2=(-7+5)/(2(3))=(-2)/(6)=-(1)/(3)

Describe the rays of an angle that measures 1/2 turn

Answers

A complete turn is referred to as a perigon angle or a full angle and has a measurement of 360 degrees. A 1/2 turn is termed as a straight angle which has a measure of 180 degrees. It is termed as such because it looks like a straight line. A ray is part of a line. It has one end point and the other end goes on and on forever.
