Answer:
5.1x - 1.49y
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to add or substract like terms.
like terms are the terms that have the same variable, in this case:
3.27x and 1.83x are like terms, and adding them we get:
3.27x + 1.83x = 5.1x (you add only the coefficients and the x stays the same)
we do the same for the terms with 'y':
1.28y and −2.77y are like terms, but in this case we must substract because of the − sign:
1.28y −2.77y = -1.49y
the final answer is the conjunction of the two results that we obtained:
5.1x - 1.49y
Black socks on monday - 3/9 or .33%.
white socks on tuesday - 5/9 or .55%
Explanation: Probability of black socks on Monday:
Total pair of socks: 1 + 3 + 5 = 9
Number of black socks on Monday: 3
3/9 = 1/3 (or divide to get a percentage)
Probability of white socks on Tuesday:
Total pair of socks: 9
Number of white socks on Tuesday: 5
5/9
Answer:
(b) 1:9
(c) 1:8
Step-by-step explanation:
(b) x*y : kx*ky, so 1:k² with k=3 is 1:9
(c) Assuming the rectangles get a z dimension, the volumes would have a ratio of xyz : xkykzk = xyz : xyzk³ = 1 : k³. With k=2 that is 1:8. But the z was never introduced so this is a bit inconclusive.
