Well, there are actually millions of colors in the rainbow, (every color that the human eye can see), but I do understand the question you're asking:

 

-- When Sara is ready to make her first selection, there are seven things with different colors in the pot, and one of them is red.

The probability that she picks the red one is ( 1 / 7 ).

The question says "with replacement". That means that after she selects it and looks at it, she puts it back in the pot. So . . .

-- When she's ready to make her second selection, the same seven things with different colors are still in the pot.  One of them is orange.

The probability that she picks the orange one is ( 1 / 7 ).

-- The probability of BOTH selections being successful (the color she wants) is

(1/7) x (1/7) .

That's <em>(1/49)</em>, which is about  <em>2.04 percent</em> .

Jill earn $15 per hour babysitting class a transportation fee of five dollars per job. Write a formula for E, Ji Jill earn $15 p
daser333 [38]
Since you know the amount of what she earns you would use the number 15 and you dont know how long she worked you would put "x" next to the 15. so you would have 15x and then put a plus 5 to show her transportation fee. so you would have the equation of 15x+5:) and instead of x use h to show hours because h=hours

you feel me?

S_A_V [24]
0.75x + 0.5y = 25.....and she doesn't want any licorice....so x = 0
0.75(0) + 0.5y = 25
0.5y = 25
y = 25/0.5
y = 50....she can get 50 cherry candies
