<h3>Answer:  21/10660</h3>

========================================================

Work Shown:

7 green + 12 blue + 19 yellow + 3 red = 41 total

A = probability of selecting red first (no replacement)

A = 3/41

B = probability of selecting green second (no replacement)

B = 7/40

C = probability of getting blue third (no replacement)

C = 12/39

D = probability of getting yellow fourth (no replacement)

D = 19/38 = 1/2

E = probability of getting red, green, blue, yellow in that order (no replacement)

E = A*B*C*D

E = (3/41)*(7/40)*(12/39)*(1/2)

E = (3*7*12)/(41*40*39*2)

E = 252/127920

E = 21/10660

When converting to decimal form, this is approximately 0.00196998

There's about a 0.196998% chance of getting this sequence of gumballs if they aren't replaced.

Jaxon has $65 in his savings account. He deposits $15 every week. His father also deposits $25 into the account every time Jaxon
Grace [21]
Part A:
A coefficient can be either '15' or '25'.
A variable can be either 'w' or 'm'.
A constant is 65.

Part B:
Simply substitute, or plug-in, the numbers and solve.
***Step 1:
65+15w+25m --> 65+15(20)+25(3)
You do this because you are substituting the 'w' for the number
of weeks that Jaxon saved up for, which is 20, and the 'm' for the number
of times that Jaxon mowed the lawn, which is 3.
***Step 2:
65+15(20)+25(3) --> 65+300+75
Begin to solve, using PEMDAS, or whichever acronym you learned.
Remember, if you are using PEMDAS, recall that the order is Parenthesis,
Exponents, Multiplication/Division (whichever comes first), and
Addition/Subtraction (whichever comes first). Here, I checked for parenthesis.
I did find parenthesis, however, they do not have any expressions inside of
them, meaning that these parenthesis are for multiplying, and not for stating
order. So, you skip parenthesis. Next, you check for exponents, which you
find none of, so you skip over that. Now, we get to multiplying/dividing, so
you multiply the 15 and the 20 to get 300, and the 25 and 3 to get 75.
***Step 3:
65+300+75 --> 440
Now, we get to addition. You simply add everything up to get your final
answer: $440.

Part C:
If Jaxon had $75, then yes, the coefficients would change.
By subtracting $65 from $75, we can see that the total amount of money
from Jaxon's deposits and his lawn-mowing money is $10. Jaxon already
deposits $15 a week, meaning that, while using the current equation, Jaxon
CANNOT have $75 in his bank account. We can change the equation
so that Jaxon is able to have $75 in his savings account. You can change
the coefficient of 15 to 10, and the other coefficient of 25 to 0.
Now Jaxon is able to have $75 in his savings account.

A self storage center is a storage room that is 8 feet long, 6 feet wide, and 10 feet high. What is the volume of the room?
KonstantinChe [14]
The formula for volume is width * height * length or w*h*l. to do this problem you have to do 8*6*10 which is 480. so, the volume of the room is 480 ft^3 (cubed).
