Answer:
x = 72 / 85
Step-by-step explanation:
x -6/7=-x/84
x + x/84 = 6/7
84/84x + 1/84x = (12*6) / (12*7)
85/84x = ( 72 ) / ( 84 )
85/84x = 72 / 84
Multiply left and right from the = sign by 84/85 and you do that so you get a division ON THE LEFT SIDE that equals as 1... See how it works:
84/85 * { 85/84 } * x = 84/85 * { ( 72 ) / ( 84 ) }
{ (84 * 85) / ( 85 * 84) } * x = ( 84 * 72 ) / ( 85 * 84 )
(7140) / ( 7140) * x =. ( 6048 ) / ( 7140)
x = 6048 / 7140
x = 72 / 85
Answer:
11/15
Step-by-step explanation:
If 4 out of 15 are Canadian, the ratio of the probability of picking a Canadian is 4/15. That means that the probability of NOT picking a Canadian is the complement of 4/15 which is 11/15. Therefore, the probability of not picking a Canadian is the same thing as the probability of picking an American penny which is 11/15.
