It is equal because every 2000 pounds is 1 ton and 18000lb divided by 2000 equals 9.
<span>We cannot deduce about the exact location of P between J and K. But we can conclude: segment JP + segment PK = line JK.
</span><span>JP + PK = JK.
</span><span>Substitute first each.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4
Combine like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4
Isolate the variable z.
4z = 24
z = 6
The value of the variable z is then 6 units.</span>
Answer:
1/14
Step-by-step explanation:
Let A represent the event First person getting red velvet cake
Let B represent the event Second person getting red velvet cake
P(A) = Total number of Red Velvet Cakes ÷ Total Number of Cakes =
6/21 = 2/7
If the first person gets a red velvet cake, then there are 5 red velvet cakes and 20 total cakes
Therefore P(B|A) = Number of red velvet cakes left ÷ total number of cakes left = 5/20 = 1/4
P(A and B) == probability of both getting red velvet cake P(A∩B) = P(A).P(B|A) = 2/7 × 1/4 = 2/28 = 1/14
