Answer:

6 yds^3

Step-by-step explanation:

I find these easiest if you put all of the dimensions into yards and then multiply

18 ft = 6 yds

36 ft = 12 yds

3 in = 3/36 yds = 1/12 yds now multiply them together

6 x 12 x 1/12 = 6 yds^3

Jerome is going to draw a marble from the bag shown below, replace it, and then draw another marble. What is the probability tha

alexira [117]

Marbles in a bag: 3 green, 4 yellow, 5 blue, 8 pink.

Event A - get a green or yellow marble
Event B - get a pink marble

Events A and B are independent because we draw a marble from a bag with 20 marbles in both cases.
$P(A)= \frac{3+4}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{7}{20} 
\\P(B)= \frac{8}{3+4+5+8}= \frac{8}{20} = \frac{2}{5}$

Probability of combined events is
$P(A) \times P(B)=\frac{7}{20} \times \frac{2}{5} =\frac{7}{50}$

for this job , Hayden earns an hourly rate of $30. For each hour he works over 40 hours, he earns 1.5 times his regular hourly r

Dominik [7]

Hayden's hourly rate is $30
Extra hour rate is 1.5×30=$45
given that he earned $2175 by working 40 regular hours, the number of overtime hours he worked will be given as follows;
let the number of overtime be x
hence total amount earned will be:
(40×30)+(45×x)=2175
1200+45x=2175
45x=2175-1200
45x=975
solving for x we get
x=975/45
x=65/3=21 2/3 hours
