If a spinner was spun 50 times and the probability to show the number 2 was 0.2, how many times would it show the number 2?

Start by using the probability equation,th e probability of an event = the number of ways the event can occur/the total number of possible outcomes From the question we know that; the probability of showing ...

y^2-64

So here its similar principle to the previous question but the only difference is that there are no singular y's.So essentially the question reads : y^2 + 0y - 64So in the same way we need factors of 64 that...

Solve the simultaneous equations : x^2 + y^2 = 13 and x = y - 5 .

Below is the solution to the aforementioned question. In order to solve a simultaneous equation, one has to write one of the unkown variables in terms of the other. In this case, x was already written in rel...

a) A line passes through (0,9) and (3,12) write down the equation of this line . b) A line perpendicular to the line in part a passes through the point (3,14) write the equation of this line.)

a) The gradient of a line is given by the equation (change in y)/(change in x). Therefore to find the gradient of the line in part a we must do (12-9)/(3-0) = 1. Now we have the gradient we can use the formu...
