To determine the probability of something, count the total of how much of a certain thing you are looking for, and then put it over the total.
With this information, we can now figure out the answer.
We have 6 vanilla cookies and 24 cookies total.
Put the amount of what we are looking for over the total as a fraction.
6/24 is our fraction.
To ensure a correct and proper answer, we need to verify for simplification of the fraction.
If both numbers are even, try to divide by 2.
Both of our numbers are even, so divide them by 2.
6/2 = 3
24/2 = 12.
Our new fraction is 3/12.
Since our numerator is prime, let's try to divide both numbers by it to ensure simplification.
3/3 = 1
12/3 = 4.
Your new and simplified answer is 1/4.
I hope this helps!

The required value after simplification of the s = -16/3. None of these are correct.

Given that,
To simplify $[\frac{x^{2/3}x^{-1/2}}{x\sqrt{x^3}\sqrt[3]{x}}]^2$ and to find the value of s in $x^s$ .

<h3>What is simplification?</h3>

The process in mathematics to operate and interpret the function to make the function simple or more understandable is called simplifying and the process is called simplification.

Simplification,

$=[\frac{x^{2/3}x^{-1/2}}{x\sqrt{x^3}\sqrt[3]{x}}]^2\\= \frac{x^{4/3}x^{-1}}{x^2x^3*{x}^{2/3}}\\= \frac{x^{1/3}}{x^{17/3}}\\=x^{-16/3}$
Comparing with $x^S$
s = -16/3

Thus, the required value of the s = -16/3. None of these are correct.

Tristan is working two summer jobs, making $7 per hour babysitting and $19 per hour lifeguarding. Tristan must earn at least $21

rodikova [14]

Answer: 7bb +19 ll ≥210

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write an inequality:

The product of the number of hours he works babysitting (bb) and the amount he earns per hour (7); plus The product of the number of hours he works lifeguarding (ll) and the amount he earns per hour 19; must be higher or equal to the amount he must earn this week (210)

Mathematically speaking:

7 bb + 19 ll ≥210
