Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we know that we have 5 envelopes. So the denominator of the probability is going to be x/5. We then realize that only one envelope has the car, so the probability of that is 1/5. If we subtract 1/5 from the probability of choosing an envelope (5/5), we get 5/5-1/5=4/5.

How do I find these angle measures?
ch4aika [34]
The measure of angle 1 is 75 degrees because it is a corresponding angle with the one given of 75 degrees
the measure of angle 2 is 105 degrees because it forms a supplementary angle with the one next to it that is 75 degrees. (this means they add up to 180 degrees.

ILL GIVE BRANILEST PLEASE HELP!
mezya [45]

Answer:

x=60^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle formed by 48+x and the angle marked as 72^{\circ} are co-interior angles and therefore must be supplementary (add up to 180 degrees).

Therefore, we have:

48+x+72=180,\\x+120=180,\\x=\boxed{60^{\circ}}

What is absolute value? can you solve problems using the absolute value?
vesna_86 [32]
An absolute value is positive value of any value. So the abs value of -28 is 28. The abs value of 67 is 67. Makes sense?

If it were |27-3| for example, treat the inside of a abs as parenthesis, so you must complete PEMDAS inside of it to reduce the equation to |24|, unless you wanted it to become |27| - |3|.

For functions, this becomes slightly different and more difficult, especially when adding a variable such as x. Look below for a sample equation.

|2x-3|=1

This equation will actually have (and most others) 2 solutions for x. To find these, you’ll need to multiply the inside of the abs by -1 for one equation, and leave it as it is for the other!

2x-3=1 -(2x-3)=1

Now you have to solve BOTH equations to get your correct x-value answers.

For the first listed equation:

2x=4

x=2

For the second listed equation:

-2x+3=1

-2x=-2

x=-1

So you get the x-values -1 and 2 which both make the parent function true!

danielle has $35 to spend on birthday presents for 2 of her friends. she has already spent a total of $6 on the cards. if she wa
Klio2033 [76]
Well this is simple all you have to do is subtract 6 dollars from 35 lets do that first
35 - 6 = 29 
so she has 29 dollars to spend on each friend and she only has two....
so lets divide 29 and 2
29/2 = 14.5 
so she can spend $14.50 on each of her friends:)
