Simplify the ratio 70lbs to 42lbs to lowest terms

What is (4x + 3) + (-2x + 4)

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

(4x + 3) + (-2x + 4) = 2x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

(4x + 3) + (-2x + 4) = you then collect like terms

(4x + -2x) + (3 + 4)= like this, and you add what's inside perenthesis

= 2x + (3 + 4). step-by-step

= 2x + 7. then that is how you get =2x+7

A box of candy hearts contains 52 hearts, of which 19 are white, 10 are tan, 7 are pink, 3 are purple, 5 are yellow, 2 are orang

laiz [17]

<u>Answer-</u>

a. Probability that three of the candies are white = 0.29

b. Probability that three are white, 2 are tan, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, and 2 are green = 0.006

<u>Solution-</u>

There are 19 white candies, out off which we have to choose 3.

The number of ways we can do the same process =

$\binom{19}{3} = \frac{19!}{3!16!} = 969$

As we have to draw total of 9 candies, after 3 white candies we left with 9-3 = 6, candies. And those 6 candies have to be selected from 52-19 = 33 candies, (as we are drawing candies other than white, so it is subtracted)

And this process can be done in,

$\binom{33}{6} = \frac{33!}{6!27!} =1107568$

So total number of selection = (969)×(1107568) = 1073233392

Drawing 9 candies out of 52 candies,

$\binom{52}{9} = \frac{52!}{9!43!} = 3679075400$

∴P(3 white candies) = $\frac{1073233392}{3679075400} =0.29$

Total number of ways of selecting 3 whites, 2 are tans, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, and 2 are greens is,

$\binom{19}{3} \binom{10}{2} \binom{7}{1} \binom{5}{1} \binom{6}{2}$

$=(\frac{19!}{3!16!}) (\frac{10!}{2!8!}) (\frac{7!}{1!6}) (\frac{5!}{1!4!}) (\frac{6!}{2!4!})$

$=(969)(45)(7)(5)(15)=22892625$

Total number of selection = 3 whites + 2 are tans + 1 is pink + 1 is yellow + 2 greens = 9 candies out of 52 candies is,

$\binom{52}{9}=\frac{52!}{9!43!} =3679075400$

∴ P( 3 whites, 2 are tans, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, 2 greens) =

$\frac{22892625}{3679075400} = 0.006$

Solve the equation 4*e+2=1 (mod5)

otez555 [7]

Here's a way to do it.

Let 4e +2 = 5n +1 . . . . . . for some integer n

Then e = (5n -1)/4 = n + (n -1)/4

We want (n-1)/4 to be an integer, so let it be integer m.

... m = (n -1)/4

... 4m = n -1

... 4m +1 = n

Substituting this into our expression for e gives

... e = (5(4m+1) -1)/4 = (20m +4)/4 = 5m +1

e = 5m+1 for any integer m

Find the slope of the line that passes through Point A (7, 4) and Point B (3, 2), using the formula m=y2-y1/x2-x1

Furkat [3]

Answer:

The slope, or m, is equal to 1/2.

Step-by-step explanation:

m = y2 - y1/x2 - x1

m = 2 - 4/3 - 7

m = -2/-4

m = 1/2
