$2.00 in quarters is 8 quarters, since 1 quarter is 25 cents.
Out of those 8 quarters, only 3 are state quarters.
That means 5 are not state quarters.
So there is a 5/8 chance that the first quarter he takes out is not a state quarter.
If it is not, then there are 3 state quarters and 7 total quarters left, which means a 4/7 chance that the second quarter is not a state quarter.
To find the probability of both of these quarters not being state quarters, multiply the probabilities by each other.
4/7 • 5/8 = 20/56
Now simplify:
20/56 = 10/28 = 5/14
5/14 is in simplest form, so it is the answer.
So the answer is D. 5/14.

How much larger is 6.3 x 10^6 than 4.9 x 10^4 ?
antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: 625100

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin, we would start multiply both numbers one by one.

(6.3 x 10^6) - 4.9 x 10^4

6.3 x 10^6 = 6300000

4.9 x 10^4 = 49000

Now, subtract (6.3 x 10^6) and (4.9 x 10^4)

                          6300000.            49000

6300000 - 49000 = 6251000

Two trains leave Raleigh at the same time one traveling north and the other south the first train travels at 50 miles per hour a
Elis [28]

Answer:

<h2>2.5 hours</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

for train one

speed= 50miles per hour

for train two

speed= 60miles per hour

the total distance between both trains=275miles

Step two:

the expression for speed= distance/time

so that, distance= speed*time

let the time be t

we are going to combine both distances

train one distance =50t

train two distance =60t

Hence total distance

50t+60t=275

110t=1=275

t=275/110

t=2.5 hours

<u>It will take 2.5 hours</u>

I don’t understand what I’m suppose to do. Can someone please help?
Ksju [112]

From the 64 values in the table on the left, count how many fall within the given ranges under the "classes" column in the table on the right. The "frequency" is the number of values in the data that belong to a given "class".

For example, "< -16.0" means "values below -16.0". Only one number satisfies this: -16.2 (first row, third column). So the frequency for this class is just 1.

Then for the range "-15.9 - 13.0", which probably means "numbers between 15.9 and -13.0, inclusive", the frequency is 0 because every number in the table is larger than the ones in this range.

And so on.

After reading a book foe English class, 100 students were asked whether or not they enjoyed it. Nine twenty-fifths of the class
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

The number of students who liked the book was 64.

Step-by-step explanation:

After reading a book for English class, 100 students were asked whether or not they enjoyed it.

Now, given that nine twenty-fifths of the class did not like the book.

So, \frac{9}{25} of the whole class did not like the book.

Then, the fraction of the class who did like the book was (1 - \frac{9}{25}) = \frac{16}{25}.

Therefore, the number of students who liked the book was (100 \times \frac{16}{25}) = 64. (Answer)

The ratio of men to women in a room is 3:4. Eight women enter the room, no men enter the room and none of the original people in
vampirchik [111]
There are 64 people in the room.

Since the ratio for women increases 1 when 8 women enter the room, for every time there is 1 in the ratio there are 8 people. That means that originally you have to do 3x8 and 4x8. You get 24 and 32 which equals 56. Then when 8 more women enter the room, you get 64.
