The probability that Paul wins a raffle is given by the expression n/n+6. Write down an expression, in the form of a combined single fraction, for the probability that Paul does not win.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(W) represents the probability that Paul wins

Let P(W') represents the probability that Paul does not win

Given

Required

In probability, the sum of opposite probability equals 1;

This implies that

Substitute in the above equation

becomes

Subtract from both sides

Solve fraction (start by taking the LCM)

Hence, the probability that Paul doesn't win is

answer: solve 5\cdot 2^x=2405⋅2  

x

=2405, dot, 2, start superscript, x, end superscript, equals, 240.

solution

to solve for xxx, we must first isolate the exponential part. to do this, divide both sides by 555 as shown below. we do not multiply the 555 and the 222 as this goes against the order of operations!

\begin{aligned} 5\cdot 2^x& =240 2^x& =48 \\ \end{aligned}  

5⋅2
