Answer:
y=3x+6
Step-by-step explanation: 3=3(-1)+b
3=-3+b
+3 +3
6=b
So, 3 liters of water, add 1/2 liter of lemonade, that's 3 and 1/2 liters of lemonade.
so in short, how many times does 1/3 go into 3 and 1/2?
let's change the mixed to "improper" and divide then.
Answer:
- <em>The probability that the second favorite character will die given that the first favorite character dies is</em><u> 0.53</u>
- <u>This kind of probability is called conditional probability</u>
Explanation:
Name the events and their probabiities:
- Event A: her favorite character will survive, so P (A) = 0.70
- Event B: her her second favorite character will die, so P(B) = 0.75
- Both characters will die ⇒ P (B and not A) = 0.16
You want to find P (B | not A).
That is the probability of the succes B (the second favorite character will die) given other event (not A or the first favorite character dies) is certain (it happens) and that is called conditional probability.
- P (not A) is the complement probability of A, so P (not A) = 1 - P(A) = 1 - 0.7 = 0.3
So, you have P(B), P(not A) and want to find P (B | not A)
The definition of conditional probability is:
- P (X | Y) = P (X and Y) / P (Y)
So, replacing with our terms, we get:
- P ( B | not A) = P (B and not A) / P (not A) = 0.16 / 0.3 ≈ 0.53
Let be "x" the number of colored pencils in the box.
According to the information given in the exercise, there are 84 pencils in the box and 53 of them are regular pencils.
Knowing this information, you can set up the following equation:

Finally, you have to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value. In order to do this, you can apply the Subtraction property of equality by subtracting 53 from both sides of the equation:

The answer is: There are 31 colored pencils in the box.
