3 pencils and 9 pens = 12 total
probability of picking pencil in 1st box is 3/12 which reduces to 1/4

7 pencils and 3 crayons = 10 total
probability of picking pencil from 2nd box is 7/10

probability of both = (1/4 * 7/10) = 7/40 <==

Out of the first box the possibility would be 3:12 or 3 out of 12. The second box would be 7:10 or 7 out of 10

13. Solve the equation: y = 4x + ax + 6 for a.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

a= (y-4x-6)/X

Step-by-step explanation:

Make ax the subject of the formulae

-ax=4x+6-y

Multiply both sides by minus (-)

ax= y-4x-6

Divide both sides by x

a= (y-4x-6)/x

A 20 foot rope is cut so that one piece is 5 feet longer than the other. Find the length of each piece
hammer [34]

Let one piece of the rope be x

Let the other piece of rope be x + 5

These two pieces put together will make 20 feet.

So we say:

x + (x +5) = 20

What is x? We expand the equation.

x + x + 5 = 20

x + x = 20 - 5

2x = 15

x = 7.5

The shorter piece is  therefore 7.5 feet.

The longer piece is 7.5 + 5 = 12.5 feet.
