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!

1) 2 (x+3) +3 (5-x)=
Ugo [173]

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 2 (x+3) +3 (5-x)=

Simplifying

2(x + 3) + 3(5 + -1x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

2(3 + x) + 3(5 + -1x) = 0

(3 * 2 + x * 2) + 3(5 + -1x) = 0

(6 + 2x) + 3(5 + -1x) = 0

6 + 2x + (5 * 3 + -1x * 3) = 0

6 + 2x + (15 + -3x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

6 + 15 + 2x + -3x = 0

Combine like terms: 6 + 15 = 21

21 + 2x + -3x = 0

Combine like terms: 2x + -3x = -1x

21 + -1x = 0

Solving

21 + -1x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-21' to each side of the equation.

21 + -21 + -1x = 0 + -21

Combine like terms: 21 + -21 = 0

0 + -1x = 0 + -21

-1x = 0 + -21

Combine like terms: 0 + -21 = -21

-1x = -21

Divide each side by '-1'.

x = 21

Simplifying

x = 21

2.  3 (y+2) -4y=-24y

Simplifying

3(y + 2) + -4y = -24y

Reorder the terms:

3(2 + y) + -4y = -24y

(2 * 3 + y * 3) + -4y = -24y

(6 + 3y) + -4y = -24y

Combine like terms: 3y + -4y = -1y

6 + -1y = -24y

Solving

6 + -1y = -24y

Solving for variable 'y'.

Move all terms containing y to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '24y' to each side of the equation.

6 + -1y + 24y = -24y + 24y

Combine like terms: -1y + 24y = 23y

6 + 23y = -24y + 24y

Combine like terms: -24y + 24y = 0

6 + 23y = 0

Add '-6' to each side of the equation.

6 + -6 + 23y = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 6 + -6 = 0

0 + 23y = 0 + -6

23y = 0 + -6

Combine like terms: 0 + -6 = -6

23y = -6

Divide each side by '23'.

y = -0.2608695652

Simplifying

y = -0.2608695652

3.  -(x+2) -2(1-x)=

Simplifying

-1(x + 2) + -2(1 + -1x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-1(2 + x) + -2(1 + -1x) = 0

(2 * -1 + x * -1) + -2(1 + -1x) = 0

(-2 + -1x) + -2(1 + -1x) = 0

-2 + -1x + (1 * -2 + -1x * -2) = 0

-2 + -1x + (-2 + 2x) = 0

Reorder the terms:

-2 + -2 + -1x + 2x = 0

Combine like terms: -2 + -2 = -4

-4 + -1x + 2x = 0

Combine like terms: -1x + 2x = 1x

-4 + 1x = 0

Solving

-4 + 1x = 0

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + 1x = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + 1x = 0 + 4

1x = 0 + 4

Combine like terms: 0 + 4 = 4

1x = 4

Divide each side by '1'.

x = 4

Simplifying

x = 4

Let f(x) be a continuous function such that f(1) and f'(x)-Vx3 + 6. What is the value of,f(5)? (A) 11.446 (C) 24.672 (B) 13.446
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

f(5) = 26.672 which is option D

Step-by-step explanation:

From question, f(1) = 2 and f'(x)=√(x^3 + 6)

f(5) = f(1) + (5,1)∫ f'(x) dx

Integrating using the boundary 5 and 1;

f(5) = 2 + (5,1)∫√(x^3 + 6) dx

f(5) = 2 + 24.672

So f(5) = 26.672
