The probability that the teacher selects both boys from a seventh grader and eighth grader.
first calculate the probility that it is boy in each grade
7th
x = 7 / ( 7 + 3) = 7 / 10
8th
y = 2 / (2 + 2) = 1 / 2
so the probability
P = ( 7 / 10 ) ( 1 / 2 )
P = 0.35
Answer:
y=1/2x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
2y-x=-8
2y=x-8
y=1/2x-4
Answer:
It’s 60miles
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the trip is "d" miles and that the "extra hour" refers to the additional time that a current of 2 mph would add. That is, we assume the reference time is for a current of 0 mph.
The time with no current is ...
time1 = distance/speed
time1 = d/12 . . . . hours
With a current of 2 mph in the opposite direction, the time is ...
time2 = d/(12 -2) = d/10
The second time is 1 hour longer than the first, so we have ...
time2 = 1 + time1
d/10 = 1 + d/12
6d = 60 + 5d . . . . multiply by 60
d = 60 . . . . . . . . . subtract 5d
The one-way distance is 60 miles.
If you right it out and solve left to right that should be your answer
