Answer:

-55/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-4 1/4 - (9 1/2)

Both the terms are given in whole fraction:

Change the terms into improper fraction

4*-4+1 = -17/4

2*9 + 1=19/2

Now,

-17/4 - 19/2

Now take the L.C.M of the denominator.

L.C.M of 4 and 2 is 4

Solve for numerator:

L.C.M (4) divided by denominator of first term will give quotient 1. Then 1 multiply by the numerator -17 will give us 1* -17 = -17

Then 4 divided by denominator of 2nd term will give us 2 as a quotient. Then quotient multiplied by numerator of 2nd term will give us 19*2 = 38

Therefore,

-17 - 38/4

= -55/4

The answer is -55/4....

Julie has 5 cherry lollipops,1 lime lollipops, and 2 grape lollipops in a bag. She is going to select one lollipop, replace the

Georgia [21]

Answer: $\dfrac{15}{32}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of cherry lollipop = 5

The total number of lollipop = 8

the number of lollipops other than grape =6

The probability of selecting a cherry lollipop is given by :_

$\text{P(Cherry)}=\dfrac{5}{8}$

The probability of selecting a lollipop other than grape is given by :_

$\text{P(Other than grape)}=\dfrac{6}{8}$

Since, there is replacement , then the events are independent of each other.

Now, the probability that Julie will select a cherry lollipop and then a lollipop other than grape is given by :-

$\text{P(Cherry and other than grape)}=\dfrac{5}{8}\times\dfrac{6}{8}=\dfrac{15}{32}$

Hence, the required probability = $\dfrac{15}{32}$
