A basket is filled with 8 white eggs and 10 brown eggs. Half of the white eggs are cracked.

probability ( cracked given it is white egg) = \frac{P  ( cracked- and - white egg) }{P(white egg)}

White eggs = 8

Brown eggs = 10

Total eggs = 18

cracked eggs = half of white eggs = 4

Probability (cracked and white egg) = \frac{4}{18}

Probability ( white egg) = \frac{8}{18}

probability ( cracked given it is white egg) = \frac{\frac{4}{18}}{\frac{8}{18}}

=  \frac{4}{8}   =  \frac{1}{2}

The probability that it is a cracked, white egg is \frac{1}{2}

The heights of a maple tree and a cherry tree have a ratio of 5:2. If the maple tree grew 20 cm and 20 cm was cut off the top of
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
Let x be the <span>heights of a maple tree and y be the height of the cherry tree.
We know: 
</span>\frac{x}{y} = \frac{5}{2}
<span>The new ratio is obtained like this:
</span>\frac{x+20}{y-20} = \frac{3}{1}.
From the above equation we get x= (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20.
then \frac{ (y-20)\frac{3}{1} -20}{y} = \frac{5}{2}
Solving the above equation for y we get: y=160
So x=400
So the first tree is (400-160=240) more taller than cherry tree.

Eliminate 3x+2y=4<br> 8x-3y=-6
laila [671]
Steps:
1. Multiply the first line by 3 and the second by 2
3(3x + 2y= 4)
2(8x -3y=-6)
2. New lines are
9x + 6y= 12
16x + -6y=-12
3. Now add/subtract them
25x + 0= 0
25x=0
4. Divide by 25
X=0

5. To find y, substitute the 0 in the x in one of the equations
9x + 6y= 12
9(0) + 6y= 12
6y= 12
6. Divide by 6, your Y=2
7. X=0, Y=2
