Wouldn’t it be 8? I’m not math genius but 12 is the total of cars and is also x. So it would be 12-4 which is 8?

It should be 4 cars because there are 8 cars each with 4 wheels that is 32 and there are 4 bicycles each with 2 wheel 8 x 4 = 32 and 4 x 2 = 8 32+8=40 wheels

The two-way table shows the number of books of each type in Eliza's home what is the probability that a randomly selected refer

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

B. 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the definition of the probability

$Pr=\dfrac{\text{Number of all favorable outcomes}}{\text{Number of all possible outcomes}}$

You have to find the probability that a randomly selected reference book is hard cover. Hence, from the table

Number of all possible outcomes = Number of Reference books = 25
Number of all favorable outcomes = Number of Hardcover Reference books = 10

So, the probability is

$Pr=\dfrac{10}{25}=\dfrac{40}{100}=0.4$

luke jogged a total of 56.5 miles last week. if luke jogged the same distance,d, each day for 3 days and half that distance on e

Leokris [45]

The algebraic equation used to answer this question is:
3d + 4(1/2d) = 56.5
This is because he ran d, the distance, three times that week. For the rest of the four days, he ran 1/2 the distance, or half d.
To find the answer, you first distribute:
3d + 2d = 56.5
Add like terms:
5d = 56.5
Divide both side by 5:
5d/5 = 56.5/5
d = 11.3
On the first three days, Luke jogged 11.3 miles. On the remaining days, where he jogged 1/2d, Luke jogged 5.65 miles.
Hope this helps!
