Hello!

You first find out how many objects there are in total


4 + 9 + 3 = 16

Then you find the probability of Liliana picking a orange

Since there are 4 oranges and 16 things to pick she has a 4/16 chance of getting an orange

Next you find the probability of Liliana picking a pear

There are 3 pears and 16 items to pick so she has a 3/16 chance

Then you add them together to find the chance of either happening

4/16 + 3/16 = 7/16

So she has a 7 out of 16 chance of getting an orange or a pear

The answer is 7/16

Hope this helps!

Form a sequence that has two arithmetic means between -1 and 59.
9966 [12]

Answer:

Correct choice is B

Step-by-step explanation:

For the numbers -1 and 59, find the difference 59-(-1):

since 59-(-1)=60 and \dfrac{60}{3}=20 (two arithmetic means tells you there will be three intervals), two arithmetic means will be

  • -1+20=19;
  • 19+20=39.

The only correct sequence is -1, 19, 39, 59.
