Answer:

58.43%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we have that the probability that they are different is the opposite of the probability that they are the same, therefore, in each case it would be:

P (plain, plain) = (12/20) (11/19)

P (p, p) = 132/380

P (chocolate, chocolate) = (5/20) (4/19) = 20/380

P (ch, ch) = 20/380

P (currant, currant)= (3/20) (2/19) = 6/380

P (c, c) = 6/380

The probability that they are equal is the sum of each:

P (equal) = 132/380 + 20/380 + 6/380

P (equal) = 0.4157

Therefore, the probability that they are different is:

P (different) = 1 - 0.4157

P (different) = 0.5843 = 58.43%

It means that the probability is 58.43%

How many solutions does the equation have? 5(w−1)−2=5w+7<br><br>A.0 B.1 C.infinitely many
bogdanovich [222]
5(w - 1) - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 5 - 2 = 5w + 7
5w - 7 = 5w + 7
5w - 5w = 7 + 7
0 = 14 (incorrect)

How many solutions does this linear system have?
Tanya [424]

Answer:

B (2.5, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x - y = 5 (multiply all by 4)

8x- 4y = 20

-8x - 4y = - 20

eliminate the 4y

8x- 4y = 20

-8x - 4y = - 20

-------------------- –

16x = 40

x = 40/16 = 2.5

now we substitute x with 2.5

2x - y = 5

2(2.5) - y = 5

y = 0
