Answer:
1/24 chance
Step-by-step explanation:
To begin you would need to find the probability of picking a green sock which would be 3/9; and you could simplify this to 1/3.
After that you need to find the probability of picking a purple sock out of the 8 left, which would provide you with 1/8. To find the probability of both you would multiply 1/8 by 1/3 to find the combined probability which would leave you with 1/24.
Answer:
48 yr. old
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume daughter is 4 and mom is 10 times her age, so mom is 40.
10 (woman) * 4 (daughter's age) = 40 yr. old mom
Present day...
40 (yr old mom) + 8 (yrs later) = 48 yr. old mom today
4 (yr old daughter) + 8 (yrs later) = 12 yr. old daughter today
So, if mom is 4 times as her daughter's age today...
48 (yr. old mom) / 12 (yr. old daughter) = 4
To find out how many inches were gained, solve it with the expression 8 - x.
