Answer:

51/145

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome. The probability that an event will happen added to the probability that the event will not happen gives 1. In other words, the outcome of a probability cannot exceed 1.

Given that the bowl has 30 grapes of which 60% of which are red grapes and 40% are white grapes, the number of;

red grapes

= 60% * 30

= 18

white grapes

= 40% * 30

= 12

If he pulls two grapes randomly from the bowl without replacement then the probability that they are both red is the product of the probability of the first being red multiplied by the probability of the second being red.

Probability of the first being red

= 60% = 3/5

Probability of the second being red ( without replacement of the first)

= (18 - 1)/(30 - 1)

= 17/29

the probability that they are both red

= 3/5 * 17/29

= 51/145

Find the quotient of n(x) = 6x^5y^7 and m(x) = 2x^3y
likoan [24]

Answer:

a.  Yes

b.  Yes

c. Yes

d. Degree 8

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Yes, n(x) is a polynomial of one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

b. Yes, m(x) is a polynomial of also one single term (also called monomial) because it contains variables raised to positive integers.

c. The quotient of n(x) / m(x) can be reduced to a polynomial of one single term as follows:

\frac{n(x)}{m(x)} =\frac{6\,x^5\,y^7}{2\,x^3\,y} =3\,x^2\,y^6

which as can be seen, also contains variables raised to positive integers.

d. The degree of the polynomial resultant is the addition of the powers of all variables present (x and y) which results in: 2 + 6 = 8

Therefore the degree of this polynomial is 8.

The temperature rose by 11 degrees Fahrenheit today. Write a signed number to represent this temperature change
Anestetic [448]
The rise in temperature by 11 degrees Fahrenheit can be represented by the temperature change, ΔT = +11 °F. The temperature change is positive because the temperature increased as stated in the question. Moreover, the formula for temperature change is: ΔT = T_final - T_initial. This means that for this case, the final temperature is higher than the initial temperature.

There are 30 books on the library shelf, Sam noted that 1/6 of them are non fiction. Dan notes that 3/5 of the books are fiction
ehidna [41]

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

Fiction books:  (1/6) of 30 books = 5 books

Non-fiction books:  (3/5) of (30) books = 18 books

The subtotal here is 5 + 18, or 23.  

23 of the books are either fiction or non fiction.

30 - 23, or 7, of the books remain (are neither fiction nor non-fiction).

Vera and her roommates ate 1 1/3 pints of ice cream on Friday night and 1 1/6 pints of ice cream on Saturday night. How many pin
Andreas93 [3]

1 1/3 + 1 1/6

 add the 1 +1 = 2

add 1/3 + 1/6 ( find common denominator, which in this case is 6)

 so 1/3 becomes 2/6

2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6 which reduces to 1/2

 they ate  2 1/2 pints total
