1 answer:

8 0

Theoretical probability is the likelihood of a certain event occurring calculated based on all the possible outcomes. (Theorizing about the probability of a certain occurrence)

Experimental probability is the likelihood of a certain event occurring calculated by performing trials of an activity and recording the number of times an event occurs, then dividing the total number of even occurrences by total number of trials. (Experimenting to find probability of a certain occurrence)

Ms. Spencer is packing orders for her bath supply business. One customer ordered 8 bath fizzies and 4 jars of sugar scrub. Each

sergey [27]

8 bath fizzes * 5 (ounces) = 40 ounces. 4 jars of sugar scrub * 1.5 (pounds) = 6 pounds. So 6 pound and 40 ounces. (40 ounces = 2.5 pounds. So 8.5 pounds in total.) ( If you want to convert the answer to ounces, 8.5 pounds is 136 ounces.)

Is 6x-8 equal to 2(3x-5)? Also, btw the x is a variable... not the multiplication sign.

ivanzaharov [21]

No, it is not. Using the distributive property, multiply 2 to 3x and -5 to get 6x-10. 6x-8 does not equal 6x-10, they have the same coefficient by not the same constant.

$1.00 = £ 0.79<br><br> $12500 US dollars = how many pounds ?<br><br> £350= how many US dollars?

Ivan

For finding the usd to pounds, you will cross multiply. This is just to make it easier to understand. You put the one dollar over the .79. as if it were a fraction, you then put how much usd you have, so in this case 12,500 dollars right next to where you put the one dollar. you obviously don't know how much euro you have so you leave the bottom portion blank. Then you multiply the 12,500 by .79. then divide by 1
