First, you pick is not defective with a probability of 17/20, the second with a probability of 16/19, the third 15/18, and the fourth 14/17.

So the probability of picking no defective tyres is:
 (14*15*16*17)/(17*18*19*20)=168/342=84/171

So the probability of picking at least one defective tyre is 87/171 (just over half).

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

because the total is 300 not 100 so 50 is not reasonable because that is the percentage they planted and since it is more than 100 then it should be a percent of 300 not 100. Maya is wrong about placing 50 bulbs instead they placed 150.

Andre says 10x + 6 and 5x + 11 are equivalent because they both equal 16 when x is 1. Do you agree with Andre?​
Serga [27]

Answer:

No, They are not equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

The two expressions are only said to be equivalent if they are the same regardless of whatever value the variable(s) is.

The variable in this question is x.

To prove this, we equate both expressions:

10x + 6 = 5x + 11

10x - 5x = 11 - 6\\\\\\5x = 5\\\\\\x = 1

This shows that they have the same value ONLY when x is 1.

This is why Andre says that they are equivalent, but they are not.
