Convert to improper frist
2 and 7/8=16/8+7/8=23/8
2 and 1/4=8/4+1/4=9/4
(23/8)/(9/4)
make bottom 1
times the whole thing by (4/9)/(4/9)
(92/72)/(36/36)=
92/72=
23/18
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
To make this a bit easier to see, we'll expand that expression.
R to the 9th is just r times itself 9 times. R to the third is r times itself 3 times.
(excuse my bad formatting)
<u>The expression:</u>
<u>r • r • r • r • r • r • r • r • r • 1</u>
r • r • r • 1
Remember, anything and everything has a coefficient or denominator of 1.
So, we can cancel 3 r's from the numerator and denominator.
<u>r • r • r • r • r • r • 1</u>
1
Simplify....

That just equals
.
The answer is Letter C - 1/2,775
The probability of choosing one of them is 2 out of 75 while the probability of choosing the other one is 1 out of 74. 74 band members, not counting the other person (you or your bother).
Computation:
P = 2 / 75 * 1 / 74
= 0.0266... * 0.01351...
= 1 / 2,775
You can also multiply 75 with 74 to get a total of 5,550 then divide it by 2 students to be selected to get 2,775. Meaning one out of 2,775 possibilities.
We will be using the Point Slope formula which is 
The information we are given is that m = -4 and the point is (2,-5), so we can input it into the equation.

This simplifies into 
Then we can subtract 5 from each side to get the answer:
