There are two choices for each child: overweight (o) or underweight (u). So if the first child is o the next can be o or u. If the first is u the second can be o or u. This gives four possibilities. Here the first child is the letter noted first and the second is the one listed second:
OO
OU
UO
UU
There are 4 outcomes and if each is equally likely then the probability of each is 1/4. Thus the probability of UU is 1/4
The probability of one underweight and one over weight is 1/2 because in two of the outcomes listed above there is one O and one U (namely OU and UO). Since there are 4 outcomes the probability is 2/4 = 1/2
Answer:
y=(3/2)x+-14
First blank: 3
Second blank:2
Last blank:-14
Step-by-step explanation:
The line form being requested is slope-intercept form, y=mx+b where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
Also perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocal slopes so the slope of the line we are looking for is the opposite reciprocal of -2/3 which is 3/2.
So the equation so far is
y=(3/2)x+b.
We know this line goes through (x,y)=(4,-8).
So we can use this point along with our equation to find b.
-8=(3/2)4+b
-8=6+b
-14=b
The line is y=(3/2)x-14.
Answer: 343.6875 US$
Step-by-step explanation:
(US$ 9.75) x (35 1/4) =
1.95 + 1.09 = 3.04 so you will spend $3.04 then 5 - 3.04 = $1.96
First one :
We divide it into two rectangles (the top one has dimensions 2in*4in)
The area of the top rectangle is 2*4=8 in^2
The second rectangle has dimensions 3*(5-3)=6 in^2
Hence the total area is 8+6=14 square inches
Second one :
We divide it into a rectangle (dimensions 11*17) and a triangle on the top.
The area of the rectangle is 11*17=187 m^2
The rectangle has dimensions 17 (base's length) and 23-11 (height) hence its area is 17*(23-11)/2=102 m^2
Hence the total area is 102+187=289 square meters
