Answer:

5/11

Step-by-step explanation:

probability = # of favorable outcomes / # of total outcomes

favorable outcome = selecting a pair of formal shoes.

There are 5 pairs of formal shoes so # of favorable outcomes = 5

The total number of outcomes = sum of different pairs of shoes. There are  5 pairs of formal shoes, 2 pairs of traditional shoes, and 4 pairs of casual shoes, so total there are 5 + 2 + 4 = 11 pairs of shoes

so we have probability =  # of favorable outcomes / # of total outcomes

and # of favorable outcomes = 5 and total # of outcomes = 11 so probability of selecting a pair of formal shoes is 5/11

Answer h=-80
vvv STEP BY STEP vvv
Multiply both sides of the equation by
52-h=28

Move constant to the right-hand side and change its sign
-h=28+52

Add the numbers
-h=80

Change the signs on both sides of the equation
h=-80

Since heat touching the surface of an ice cube causes it to melt, is it
Igoryamba
Well, it depends on the size of the ice cub and how much heat is being added. if its smaller and it has large amounts of heat being added it will melt fast, if its small and low amounts of heat are being added it will melt slower, if its a big cubs and large amounts of heat are being added it will melt slower than the small cub at the same temp but if its getting more heat than the small cub its should melt faster, ect. but in your case id say your right and bigger surface slower melt.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (−1,−3) and is parallel to the line 4x−y=2?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer: y = 4x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Make the equation its parallel to in slope intercept form by subtacting 4x to get -y = -4x+ 2 then dividing both sides by -1 to get y = 4x -2

When dealing with parallel lines thier slopes are ALWAYS the same, so the equation we are making should have the slope of 4.

2. Plug in the corrordinates x and y values and the slope into the point-slope form equation to find the y intercept

(y - (-3)) = 4(x - (-1))

3. Solve for y in slope intercept form:

y + 3 = 4x + 4 ----> y = 4x + 1
