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> .

Which has the same value as 1 hundred 7 tens<br> 70 tens<br> 17 tens<br> 10 tens<br> 7 tens
N76 [4]
When they say tens you're basically adding a zero at the end of the number. So 1 hundred 7 tens would be 170, 70 tens would be 700, 17 tens would be 170, 10 tens would be 100, and 7 tens is 70.

Need help with the problem in the photo.
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

  B.  3x -2y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The given line rises three units for each two units of run to the right. Hence its slope is 3/2. A parallel line will also have a slope of 3/2.

Of the equations we can see, selection B has a slope of 3/2. It can be rewritten in slope-intercept form as ...

  3x -10 = 2y . . . . . add 2y-10 to isolate the y-term; next divide by 2.

  y = 3/2x -5 . . . . . the coefficient of x is the slope

Convert 24% to a fraction in simplest form.
Morgarella [4.7K]
You can think of "per cent" as meaning "divided by 100". Thus
.. 24% = 24/100
This fraction can be reduced by removing a factor of 4 from numerator and denominator:
.. 24% = 24/100 = 6/25
