Pick 1: 3 apples out of 11 pieces of fruit → 3/11
Pick 2: 4 oranges out of 10 pieces of fruit → 4/10 = 2/5
Pick 1 AND Pick 2
3/11 x 2/5 = 6/55
Answer:
97/40
Step-by-step explanation:
so 2.125= 17/8
3/10+17/8 need to find common denominator so
times 8/8 to 3/10
times 10/10 to 17/8
24/80+170/80= 194/80 (common denominator so can add)
divide 194/80 because want reduce form
97/40 is the answer
(When i look at it now i can just time 4/4 and 5/5 but its ok this still gets the answer)
Answer:
d. 126; 70
Step-by-step explanation:
given that Ron finds 9 books at a bookstore that he would like to buy, but he can afford only 5 of them.
Out of 9 books he has to select 5 of them
Here selection of books can be done in any order. Hence order does not matter
No of ways he selects 5 books out of 9 books = 9C5
= 126
Part II
One book is a must
Hence he has options only 4 books from the remaining 8.
No of ways when one book is compulsory = selecting 3 books from 8 books
= 8C4
= 70
Option d is right.
D) f(n) = 3 + 4(n-1)
3 = 1st term
4 = common difference among the terms
n = term number you are looking for.
To check: 3, 7, 11, 15, ...
f(1) = 3 + 4(1-1) = 3 + 4(0) = 3 + 0 = 3
f(2) = 3 + 4(2-1) = 3 + 4(1) = 3 + 4 = 7
f(3) = 3 + 4(3-1) = 3 + 4(2) = 3 + 8 = 11
f(4) = 3 + 4(4-1) = 3 + 4(3) = 3 + 12 = 15
