Which NCAA college basketball conference has the higher probability of having a team play in a college basketball's national championship game? Over the last 20 years, the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) ranks first by having a team in the championship game 10 times. The Southeastern Conference (SEC) ranks second by having a team in the championship game 8 times. However, both conferences have had teams in the championship game only one time, when Arkansas (SEC) beat Duke (ACC) 76–70 in 1994 (NCAA website, April 2009). Use these data to estimate the following probabilities.

a. What is the probability the ACC will have a team in the championship game?
b. What is the probability the SEC will have team in the championship game?
c. What is the probability the ACC and SEC will both have teams in the championship game?
d. What is the probability at least one team from these two conferences will be in the championship game? That is, what is the probability a team from the ACC or SEC will play in the championship game?
e. What is the probability that the championship game will not a have team from one of these two conferences?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A)P(ACC has a team in the championship game) = 0.5

B)P(SEC has a team in the championship game) = 0.4

C)P(both ACC & SEC having teams in the championship games) = 0.05

D)P(ACC or SEC) = 0.85

E)P(not ACC or SEC) = 0.15

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that in the last 20 years, ACC has had a team in the championship game for 10 times.

Thus;

P(ACC has a team in the championship game) = 10/20 = 0.5

B) SEC has a team in the championship game 8 times in the last 20 years;

Thus;

P(SEC has a team in the championship game) = 8/20 = 0.4

C) since both ACC and SEC have had teams in the championship game for the past 20 years, then;

P(both ACC & SEC having teams in the championship games) = 1/20 = 0.05

D) Addition rule of probability is that;

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A & B)

Applying it to this question, we have;

P(ACC or SEC) = P(ACC) + P(SEC) - P(ACC & SEC)

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

P(ACC or SEC) = 0.5 + 0.4 - 0.05

P(ACC or SEC) = 0.85

E) from complement rule, we can find the probability that the championship game will not a have team from one of these two conferences.

Thus;

P(ACC not SEC) = 1 - P(ACC or SEC)

P(ACC not SEC) = 1 - 0.85

P(ACC not SEC) = 0.15

Answers

Answer:

∠F = 19.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of all of the angles in a triangle is 180°

∠F + ∠H + ∠G = 180°

∠F + 127° + 33.5° = 180°

∠F + 160.5° = 180°

∠F = 19.5°

Krysta knit a total of 16 centimeters of scarf over 8 nights. How many nights will Krysta have
to spend knitting in order to knit a total of 46 centimeters of scarf? Assume the relationship is
directly proportional.
nights

Answers

Answer:

23 nights

Step-by-step explanation:

What does "Proportional" Mean? Proportional means that the ratio is the same throughout.

Step One: First, to set this up, we will put the 16 centimeters for the numerator and then the 8 nights on the bottom. The bottom is the independent variable because we can't physically change the number of nights. 16/8.

Step Two: Now, we have to scale this up to 46. Because the 46 is the centimeters, we have to do 46/16 to see how much we need to scale it by: 46/16= 2.875.

Step Three: Lastly, we can multiply 8 by 2.875 to see how many nights it took: 8 times 2.875 is 23 nights.

Answers

Answer:

x = [tex]\frac{19+\sqrt{365}}{2}, \frac{19-\sqrt{365}}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Move everything to one side of the equation.

x^2 - 19x - 1 = 0

2. Use the quadratic formula where a = 1, b = -19, and c = -1.

x = (-b +- sqrt(b^2-4ac)) / 2a

If you plug those numbers into that formula, you will get the result listed above

Adult tickets to a basketball game cost $5. Student tickets cost $1. A total of $3,142 was collected on the sale of 1,330 tickets. How many of each type of ticket were sold?


The basketball game sold
______adult tickets and
_______student tickets.

Answers

Answer:

453 adult tickets and 877 student tickets were sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that adult tickets to a basketball game cost $ 5 and student tickets cost $ 1, and a total of $ 3,142 was collected on the sale of 1,330 tickets, to determine how many of each type of ticket were sold the following calculations must be performed:

5 - 1 = 4

1330 x 1 = 1330

3142 - 1330 = 1812

1812/4 = 453

1330 - 453 = 877

877 x 1 + 453 x 5 = X

877 + 2265 = X

3142 = X

Therefore, 453 adult tickets and 877 student tickets were sold.

Justin is marking a border for a garden. He walks 200 feet to the east, then turns and

starting point. To the nearest foot, how far does Justin walk in all?

Answer

feet

Answers

Answer:

d = 233.23 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Justin walks 200 feet to the east, then turns and  walks 120 feet due south.

We need to find the total distance walked by Justin. Let the distance be d.

We can use the Pythagoras theorem to find it such that,

[tex]d=\sqrt{d_1^2+d_2^2} \\\\d=\sqrt{200^2+120^2} \\\\d=233.24\ feet[/tex]

So, he walk 233.23 feet in all.

f(x)=-0.05(x-16)²+11

f(25)=-0.05(25-16)²+11

=-0.05(9²)+11

=-0.05(81)+11

ZABC and ZQRS are supplementary angles.
If the measure of ZABC = 140°, what is the
measure of ZQRS?
MZQRS = [?]

Answers

Answer:

m<QRS = 40

Step-by-step explanation:

180 - 140 = 40

The measure of angle m∠QRS which is supplementary to m∠ABC is determined as 40⁰.

What is a supplementary angle?

A supplementary angle is a pair of angles that add up to 180 degrees.

That is to say, if we have two angles and their measures sum up to 180 degrees, then they are supplementary angles. Each angle in a supplementary pair is called the "supplement" of the other angle.

The measure of angle QRS is calculated by applying the following formula as follows;

m∠QRS + m∠ABC = 180 (supplementary angles add up to 180)

m∠QRS + 140 = 180

m∠QRS = 180 - 140

m∠QRS = 40⁰

Thus, the measure of angle m∠QRS which is supplementary to m∠ABC is determined as 40⁰.

ONLY GIVE ME REAL ANSWERS!!!!!!!!Memories of a MemoryHave you ever witnessed something amazing, shocking or surprising and found when describing the event that your story seems to change the more you tell it? Have you ever experienced a time when you couldn't really describe something you saw in a way that others could understand? If so, you may understand why some experts think eyewitness testimony is unreliable as evidence in scientific inquiries and trials. New insights into human memory suggest human memories are really a mixture of many non-factual things.First, memory is vague. Imagine your room at home or a classroom you see every day. Most likely, you could describe the room very generally. You could name the color of the walls, the floors, the decorations. But the image you describe will never be as specific or detailed as if you were looking at the actual room. Memory tends to save a blurry image of what we have seen rather than specific details. So when a witness tries to identify someone, her brain may recall that the person was tall, but not be able to say how tall when faced with several tall people. There are lots of different kinds of "tall."Second, memory uses general knowledge to fill in gaps. Our brains reconstruct events and scenes when we remember something. To do this, our brains use other memories and other stories when there are gaps. For example, one day at a library you go to quite frequently, you witness an argument between a library patron and one of the librarians. Later, when telling a friend about the event, your brain may remember a familiar librarian behind the desk rather than the actual participant simply because it is recreating a familiar scene. In effect, your brain is combining memories to help you tell the story.Third, your memory changes over time. It also changes the more you retell the story. Documented cases have shown eyewitnesses adding detail to testimony that could not have been known at the time of the event. Research has also shown that the more a witness's account is told, the less accurate it is. You may have noticed this yourself. The next time you are retelling a story, notice what you add, or what your brain wants to add, to the account. You may also notice that you drop certain details from previous tellings of the story.With individual memories all jumbled up with each other, it is hard to believe we ever know anything to be true. Did you really break your mother's favorite vase when you were three? Was that really your father throwing rocks into the river with you when you were seven? The human brain may be quite remarkable indeed.
