Answer:
6
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the groups had 4, so subtract that from the 16 total and it leaves 12. Then the 12 are split into 2 groups so they each have 6.
the picture in the attached figure
we know that
The probability of an event is the ratio of the size of the event space to the size of the sample space.
The size of the sample space is the total number of possible outcomes
The event space is the number of outcomes in the event you are interested in.
so
P=size of the event space/size of the sample space
step 1
find the probability that the person is over 40 years
size of the sample size=255
size of the event space=85
P=85/255------> P=1/3
step 2
find the probability that they drink root beer
size of the sample size=255
size of the event space=75
P=75/255------> P=5/17
step 3
find the probability that the person is over 40 years of age or that they drink root beer
so
P=(1/3)+(5/17)-----> P=(17*1+3*5)/51------> P=32/51-----> 0.6275----> 62.75%
therefore
the answer is
32/51 or 62.75%
You always start by simplifying.
6b-49=2<span>(</span>b-3) becomes 6b-49=2b-6
From there you can group the b's together by subtracting 2b from both sides, leaving you with 4b-49=-6
Now you can get the b's alone by adding 49 (to cancel out -49) to both sides, giving you 4b=43, You're still trying to get b by itself, so what you'll do is divide both sides by 4, giving you b=10.75
The two towns would be 60 miles apart. Because 2 inches divided by 0.5 inches is 4. So you have to multiply 15 miles and you’ll 60 miles
