Common denominator first. multiply 2/5 by 2 in the top and bottom so they all have a denominator of 10

7/10+4/10-1/10=10/10

10/10=1

Assuming mental math still follows the order of operations, you have
$\frac{7}{10} + \frac{4}{10} - \frac{1}{10} = \frac{10}{10} = 1$

So the answer is 1.

An algebraic expression is one that consists of both number(s) and an alphabet(s). The required answers are:

i. Distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop = 6.0 miles

ii. Distance from coffee shop to Chenoa's school = 1.5 miles

iii. Distance from Chenoa's house to her school = 7.5 miles

An algebraic expression is one that consists of both number(s) and an alphabet(s). The alphabet is referred to as the unknown whose value has to be determined.

In the given question, let the distance from the coffee shop to Chenoa's school be represented by y.

So that;

The distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop = (2y + 3) miles.

The total distance from Chenoa's house to her school = 5y.

This implies that:

(2y + 3) + y = 5y

3y + 3 = 5y

3 = 5y - 3y

2y = 3

y = $\frac{3}{2}$

= 1.5

The distance from the coffee shop to Chenoa's school is 1.5 miles.

Thus;

(2y + 3) = ( 2(1.5) + 3)

= 6

The distance from Chenoa's house to the coffee shop is 6 miles.

And,

5y = 5(1.5)

= 7.5

The total distance from Chenoa's house to her school is 7.5 miles.

PLEASE HELP!!!! WILL GIVE BARAINLYIST!!!!

Experimental probability = 1/5

Theoretical probability = 1/4

note: 1/5 = 0.2 and 1/4 = 0.25

=============================================

How I got those values:

We have 12 hearts out of 60 cards total in our simulation or experiment. So 12/60 = (12*1)/(12*5) = 1/5 is the experimental probability. In the simulation, 1 in 5 cards were a heart.

Theoretically it should be 1 in 4, or 1/4, since we have 13 hearts out of 52 total leading to 13/52 = (13*1)/(13*4) = 1/4. This makes sense because there are four suits and each suit is equally likely.

The experimental probability and theoretical probability values are not likely to line up perfectly. However they should be fairly close assuming that you're working with a fair standard deck. The more simulations you perform, the closer the experimental probability is likely to approach the theoretical one.

For example, let's say you flip a coin 20 times and get 8 heads. We see that 8/20 = 0.40 is close to 0.50 which is the theoretical probability of getting heads. If you flip that same coin 100 times and get 46 heads, then 46/100 = 0.46 is the experimental probability which is close to 0.50, and that probability is likely to get closer if you flipped it say 1000 times or 10000 times.

In short, the experimental probability is what you observe when you do the experiment (or simulation). So it's actually pulling the cards out and writing down your results. Contrast with a theoretical probability is where you guess beforehand what the result might be based on assumptions. One such assumption being each card is equally likely.
