Step-by-step explanation + Answer:

x = 1st job

y = 2nd job

x + y = 22......x = 22 - y

7x + 8.25y = 171.50

7(22 - y ) + 8.25y = 171.50

154 - 7y + 8.25y = 171.50

-7y + 8.25y = 171.50 - 154

1.25y = 17.50

y = 17.50 / 1.25

y = 14 <== 14 hrs at the 8.25 per hr job

x + y = 22

x + 14 = 22

x = 22 - 14

x = 8 <=== 8 hrs at the 7 per hr job

7. A bag of M&amp;Ms contains the following distribution of colors:
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

a) 21/1240 = 0.017

b) 9/1240 = 7.26*10^-3

c) 3/2480 = 1.21*10^-3

Step-by-step explanation:

There are total 32 M&Ms in the bag

a) Probability that all three are blue M&Ms (without replacement)

         (9/32)*(8*31)*(7/30) = 21/1240 = 0.017

b)     Probability that the first one selected is blue, the second one selected is orange, and the third one selected is red

         (9/32)*(6/31)*(4/30) = 9/1240 = 7.26*10^-3

c)     Probability that the first two selected are red, and the third one selected is yellow

        (4/32)*(3/31)*(3/30) = 3/2480 = 1.21*10^-3

Are lines of symmetry also diagonals in a polygon? Explain.
Vaselesa [24]
Well not all lines are lines of symmerty, because if you draw a let's say a rectangle on a piece of paper and draw a diagonal line through it, well the two sides don't really lie perfectly on one another!!
