The answer would be (0,-2)
Im hoping you just want an example so here you go
whole number: 16
fraction version of 16: 16/1
to subtract fractions you have to have a common denominator.
so if i had a problem like 6 -1/3
step 1 would be to turn 6 into a fraction: 6/1
step 2 is to find the common denominator:
6/1 -1/3, in this case it is 3, so you multuply the first term by 3
you would then get 18/3 - 1/3, now all you do if subract numerators, 18-3=15
final answer would be 15/3, you can simplify it into 5/1 which is also 5
Answer:
a.
R-------8/38--------RR
R------9/39--------B-------13/38-------RB
G------17/38--------RG
R-------9/38--------BR
B--------13/39------B-------12/38-------BB
G-------17/38-------BG
R-----9/38--------GR
G---------17/39-------B------13/38-------GB
G------16/38-------GG
b).
- 9 ways
- ways you can select 1 blue are; RB,BR,BG,GB
RB=9/39 × 13/38=3/38
BR= 13/39 × 9/38 =3/38
BG= 13/39 × 17/38=17/114
GB= 17/39 × 13/38=17/114
=3/38 +3/38+17/114+ 17/114 =26/57
- Probability of selecting 2 red markers= RR = 9/39 × 8/38 =12/247
- Probability of selecting a green marker and then a red marker= GR= 17/39×9/38 =51/494
