Answer: 20x
Step-by-step explanation:
First we should note that 60 minutes = 1 hour. Therefore, 15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hour
Since Jean can pack 5 cartons in 1/4 hours, the number of carton that he can pack in one hour will be:
= 5 ÷ 1/4
= 5 × 4
= 20 cartons.
Therefore, to get the number of cartons that Jean can pack in x hours, we will multiply 20 by x. This will be:
= 20 × x
= 20x
The answer is 7/5. I attached the work below.
1) an = a1 + d*(n-1) => a20 = -4 + (-9)*19 = -4 - 171 = - 175
1) ---> C)
2) a81 = 20 + 4*80 = 340;
2) ---> A)
3) a12 = ?
3) ---> B) or D).
Since there are equal numbers of pieces, the chances of Julio getting a red on the first pull is 12/24 or 1/2 (reduced)
However on the second pull there are only 11 reds (Julio pulled one out) out of 23 remaining pieces so the chances of pulling the second red are 11/23
Now multiply those possibilities:
1/2 x 11/23 and you will get 11/46 which is the probability of pulling two reds in a row. 11/46 is the answer.
