Answer:
130/100 = 13/10
Step-by-step explanation:
P(A or B)= 1 + 30/100 = 100+30/100 = 130/100
A sled dog racer completed a race in 6 hours. Because of changes in the terrain, his average speed for the last 48 miles was twice as fast as his average speed for the first 12 miles. Which equation can be used to find r, his average speed in miles per hour, during the first 12 miles?
Answer:
180= 2x+ 4x+ 3x
180= 9x
x=20
a= 40
b= 80
c= 60
40+60+80= 180 (checking answers)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 3 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could simplify the given equation first, then solve the resulting 2-step linear equation. It might work better to undo the operations done to the variable.
<h3>Solution</h3>
(5 1/6 -x)(2.7) -5 3/4 = -1 1/4 . . . . . given
(5 1/6) -x)(2.7) = 4 1/2 . . . . . . . add 5 3/4 to both sides
(5 1/6 -x) = 4.5/2.7 = 5/3 . . . divide by 2.7
31/6 -10/6 = x . . . . . . . . . . add x-5/3, use common denominators
21/6 = x = 7/2
x = 3 1/2

Answer: 5/51</h3>
======================================================
Explanation:
We have 6 green out of 6+6+6 = 18 total
The probability of getting green is 6/18 = 1/3.
After selecting that green jelly bean and not putting it back, we have 6-1 = 5 green out of 18-1 = 17 total.
The probability of selecting another green is 5/17.
Multiply the two fractions 1/3 and 5/17
(1/3)*(5/17) = (1*5)/(3*17) = 5/51
The probability of selecting two greens in a row is 5/51 where we do not put the first selection back. We also do not replace the green jelly bean with some other identical copy.
Note: 5/51 = 0.098039 approximately
