Answer:
seventeen out of twenty
Step-by-step explanation:
The phrase that describes this probability would be
seventeen out of twenty
This is because the bag has a total of 20 candies ( 3 strawberry chews and 17 cherry chews). If he randomly chooses one from the bag, he has a 17/20 chance of getting a cherry chew because there are 17 total cherry chews in the bag. If we were to change this fraction into a phrase it would be the phrase above in bold.
6/12 or 4/8 is a possible answer

Answer:
y = (3/2)x + 11/2
Step-by-step explanation:
As we move from the point (-3, 1) to the point (3, -3), x increases by 6 and y decreases by 4. Thus, the slope is
m = rise / run = 6/4 = 3/2.
Subbing the knowns into the general point-slope form of the equation of a straight line, we get
y - 1 = (3/2)(x - [-3]), or y - 1 = (3/2)(x + 3).
This is equivalent to y = (3/2)x + 9/2 + 1, or y = (3/2)x + 11/2.
5/6 - x = 8/15
5/6 - 8/15 = x
25/30 - 16/30 = x
9/30 reduces to 3/10 = x <==Armand burned 3/10 of a row
