Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the common denominator of 8 and 12, which is 24.
Next we rewrite our fractions:

This cannot be reduced.
Answer:
3/10
Step-by-step explanation:
Total number of employees = 7 + 9 = 16
Probability of a man being chosen first to be promoted = 9/16
Probability of the second choice is still a man for promotion = 8/15
Why 8/15?
The number of men left who are eligible for promotion after the 1st man was chosen for promotion is 9 - 1 = 8
The total number of people left after the 1st person is chosen for promotion that are eligible for promotion is 16 - 1 = 15
Hence Probability of choosing 2 men for promotion = 9/16 x 8/15 = 3/10
300,000,000 is 3 x 10 to the 8th power

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
y = 3x + 2
Comparing with y = mx + c
slope (m) = 3
y-intercept (c) = 2
