<h2>Answer:</h2>

The probability that the number chosen is prime is:

                     \dfrac{1}{4}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The probability of an event is defined as the ratio of number of favorable outcome to the total number of outcomes.

Here the total number of outcomes are: 100

( Since we have to take first 100 positive integers i.e. 1-100)

Also, the number of favorable outcomes i.e.  the number of prime numbers between 1-100 is: 25

( Since, the prime numbers are:

2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23, 29, 31, 37, 41, 43, 47, 53, 59, 61, 67, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, and 97 )

Hence, the probability that the number chosen is prime is:

Probability=\dfrac{25}{100}\\\\\\Probability=\dfrac{1}{4}

A four-pack of 4242-ounce ink cartridges sells for $85.99$85.99. The expression 42c42c represents the amount of ink in a number
masya89 [10]
The variable cc refers to how much ink is in a certain number of cartridges. If the box says 42cc, that means the amount of ink in those particular cartridges is 42. If a box said 12cc, the amount would be 12. The variable cc just states the amount of ink you can expect from a particular amount of cartridges.

What is equivalent to 3 to the negative 2nd power
VladimirAG [237]
3 to the negative second power is written like this: 3^{-2}. 

When simplifying an expression with a negative exponent, you take a positive version of the exponent, in this case that would be 2, and apply that to the base. 
After doing that, we have 9. 
The next step is to put one over that number.
In this case, now after doing that the answer is \frac{1}{9}. 

Hope this helps!

1) Diego measured the number of cups of water in 15 bottles of various sizes. He
Ivan

Answer:

8\frac{3}{4} cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the line plot made by Diego which represents bottle sizes in cups, we can see that the most common size is the bottle having 1¾ cups (there are 5 of this sizes).

If he poured all 5 of this bottle sizes in 1 container, he would have the following:

1\frac{3}{4} * 5 = \frac{7}{4}*5 = \frac{35}{4}

= 8\frac{3}{4} cups.
