we know that

1pound -------> is equal to ------> 16 ounces

So

By proportion

\frac{1}{16}\frac{pound}{ounces} =\frac{x}{1}\frac{pounds}{ounce} \\ \\ x=\frac{1}{16} pounds

therefore

the answer is

one ounce is equal to \frac{1}{16} pounds

In a horse race with 5 horses, you make a bet by predicting the ranking of all 5 horses. Suppose you place your bet at random. W
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

P( top two horses are predicted incorrectly in incorrect order)

= \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

In the horse race the outcome can be predicted in 5! = 120 ways.

Now suppose the top two horses were predicted incorrectly in incorrect order. Now, the  top horse can be predicted incorrectly in 4 ways.

Suppose the top horse was predicted to be in k-th position where k = 2, 3 ,4,5

so the second horse can be predicted to be in place from 1 to (k - 1)

So, the top two horses can be predicted  incorrectly in incorrect order

in \sum_{k =2}^{5}(k - 1) = 10 ways  

and for each prediction of the two the remaining horses may be predicted in 3! = 6 ways.

Hence ,

P( top two horses are predicted incorrectly in incorrect order)

= \frac{6 \times 10}{120}

=\frac{1}{2}

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (-6, -7) and is
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Product of slope of perpendicular lines = -1

6x + 5y = 30

Write this equation in y = mx + b  form

        5y = -6x + 30

          y = \frac{-6}{5}x+\frac{30}{5}

          y=\frac{-6}{5}x + 6

Slope of this line m₁ = -6/5

m₁ * m₂ = -1

      m₂ = -1÷m₁ = -1 * \frac{5}{-6}  

m_{2}=\frac{5}{6}     & (-6 , -7)

Equation of the required line: y - y₁ = m (x - x₁)

y - (-7) = \frac{5}{6}(x - [-6])\\\\y + 7 = \frac{5}{6}x + 6 *\frac{5}{6}\\\\y = \frac{5}{6}x +5-7\\\\y=\frac{5}{6}x-2
