That "9 minutes" doesn't affect the outcome!

How many pieces of candy are in the bag at the beginning?  How many of those are "fruit tart chews?"  Write a fraction involving these 2 counts.  Remember that Britany immediately eats what she draws from the bag, so the 2nd time around, there are only 19 pieces, not 20.  What is the prob. that she will pick a jelly treat on her second draw?
Because these experiments are independent, you can find the joint probability by multiplying the 2 probabilities together.  Please show your work.

Find the unit rate. 6 2/5 revolutions in 2 2/3 seconds
Brums [2.3K]
The unit rate will be in revolutions per second. That means divide number of revolutions by number of seconds.

first convert from mixed fraction.
6 2/5 = 32/5 revolutions
2 2/3 = 8/3 seconds

32/5 ÷ 8/3
flip multiply
32/5 × 3/8 = 12/5 revolutions per second

12/5 = 2 2/5 revolutions per second

If FH = 9x + 15 and GH = 5x + 4,<br> then FG = ?
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

FG = 39

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given:

FH = 9x + 15

GH = 5x + 4

FG = ?

From the question given above, we can say that G is the midpoint of FH. This implies that:

FH = FG + GH

With the above idea in mind, we can obtain FG as follow:

FH = 9x + 15

GH = 5x + 4

FG = ?

FH = FG + GH

9x + 15 = FG + 5x + 4

Rearrange

FG = 9x + 15 - 5x - 4

FG = 9x - 5x + 15 - 4

FG = 4x + 11

Next, we shall determine the value of x. This can be obtained as follow:

Since G is the midpoint of FH, it therefore means that FG and GH are equal i.e

FG = GH

With the above idea in mind, we can obtain the value of x as follow:

FG = 4x + 11

GH = 5x + 4

FG = GH

4x + 11 = 5x + 4

Collect like terms

11 - 4 = 5x - 4

7 = x

x = 7

Thus, we can obtain the value of FG as follow:

FG = 4x + 11

x = 7

FG = 4x + 11

FG = 4(7) + 11

FG = 28 + 11

FG = 39

***Check ***

FH = 9x + 15

x = 7

FH = 9(7) + 15 = 63 + 15 = 78

GH = 5x + 4

x = 7

GH = 5(7) + 4 = 35 + 4 = 39

FG = 4x + 11

x = 7

FG = 4(7) + 11 = 28 + 11 = 39

FH = FG + GH

FH = 78

FG = 39

GH = 39

FH = FG + GH

78 = 39 + 39

78 = 78
