You would have 10 muffins left because 1/3 of 15 is 5 so 15-5=10

If you split 15 muffins into 3 groups, youre going to have 5 muffins in each group. so if you give a friend 1 out of the 3 groups, youre going to have 10 muffins left.

IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

a.

                         R-------8/38--------RR

R------9/39--------B-------13/38-------RB

                          G------17/38--------RG

                          R-------9/38--------BR

B--------13/39------B-------12/38-------BB

                           G-------17/38-------BG

                             R-----9/38--------GR

G---------17/39-------B------13/38-------GB

                              G------16/38-------GG

b).

  • 9 ways
  • ways you can select 1 blue are; RB,BR,BG,GB

RB=9/39 × 13/38=3/38

BR= 13/39 × 9/38 =3/38

BG= 13/39 × 17/38=17/114

GB= 17/39 × 13/38=17/114

=3/38 +3/38+17/114+ 17/114 =26/57

  • Probability of selecting 2 red markers= RR = 9/39 × 8/38 =12/247

  • Probability of selecting a green marker and then a red marker= GR= 17/39×9/38 =51/494

Pls solve ASAP!! Review the attachment and solve. Pls hurry!
Virty [35]

Answer:

A. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

ΔDEC is bigger than ΔABC by 5. For the hypotenuse, 25 is 5 times bigger than 5.

So, side DE on ΔDEC has to be 5 times bigger than side AB on ΔABC.

If side AB equals 3, side DE equals 18 - 3, which is 15.

15 is five times bigger than 3, so the answer is A. 3.

Hope that helps.
