HELP PLEASE
Groundhog's Day is on February 2nd each year. On this day, in Punxsatawney, Pennsylvania, thousands of onlookers watch to see if Phil, the groundhog, will cast a shadow. If he does, then six more weeks of winter are predicted. If he doesn't, then an early spring is predicted. Historically, Phil's prediction has only been correct about 40% of the time.

Using complete sentences, design a simulation to determine the probability that Phil's prediction will be correct at least two out of the next three years. Make sure to explain how you would use the simulation to determine the probability.

I used a random number string generator and this was the list:  326 200 734 655 915 662 579 707 875 426 048 342 609 244 739 952 362 436 299 187 845 649 104 036 238 993 675 567 927 363 983 296 478 795 141 965 921 872 179 273 040 953 862 777 213 223 066 862 681 556 784 474 828 548 478 058 359 209 993 345 011 002 255 372 237 187 992 965 477 045 317 089 578 577 996 363 048 795 598 708 499 002 990 026 286 042 952 422 651 391 838 076 973 423 834 660 708 938 855 862

after I sorted through the list I looked for numbers 0, 1, 2, 3 those represented the time that it was correct

4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 represent the time that it was incorrect the bolded one represent the ones that work. There is a 27% chance that at least 2 of the next 3 years are going to be correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

question 1 is 8, question 2 is 9, question 3 is 24

step-by-step explanation:

now, the numbers they give you at the top are the key. from there, you just have to plug and chug! let's try 1, 2, and 3!

key: a=3, b=5, c=6

1. a+5

remember, a=3, so we plug that in to get 3+5=8

2. 15-c

c=6, so we plug that in to get 15-6=9

3. 4b

b=6, so we plug it in to get 4*6=24

time to try the rest on your own! if you put the answers below in a comment, i'll check them for you!

answer is 8x+24

area of vanessa's patio = length × width

given, length = (3x² + 5x + 10)

width = (x² - 3x - 1)

area of vanessa's patio = (3x² + 5x + 10)(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x²(x² - 3x - 1) + 5x(x² - 3x - 1) + 10(x² - 3x - 1)

= 3x⁴ - 9x³ - 3x² + 5x³ - 15x² - 5x + 10x² - 30x - 10

= 3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10

hence, expression of vanessa's patio = (3x⁴ - 4x³ - 8x² - 35x - 10)
