Answer:
b. 0.38.
Step-by-step explanation:
You either win a prize or you don't. There are only 2 possibilities so the probability of not winning a prize = 1 - 0.62 = 0.38.
3•y+2
3 and y are being multiplied and then you add the two!:)
Answer:
Klorina's rate in still water is 4.5 km/h
Current's rate is 0.5 km/h
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x km/h = Klorina's rate in still water
y km/h = current's rate
<u>With the current (current helps):</u>
Distance = 10 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x + y km/h

<u>Against the current:</u>
Distance = 8 km
Time = 2 hours
Rate = x - y km/h

Divide both equations by 2:

Add these equations:

Subtract these two equations:

The reciprocal of 3/8 would be 8/3 (basically reversing the numbers).
When dividing fractions, you can just multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction instead of dividing by the second fraction.
3/4 ÷ 3/8
= 3/4 × 8/3
Simplifying gives us the final answer:
= 2
