17/21 It is already in its simplest form. 17 is a prime number.

Because 17 is already a prime number , this means that your question answered it's self. 21/17 is it's self in simplest form.

i hope this helps?

Answer:

1/16

Step-by-step explanation:

In the starting, Corrine had 1/4 gallon of blackberries. Now, she poured the berries equally into 4 containers. Therefore, the amount of berries in each container is:1/4 : 4=1/16

Thus, each container has 1/16 of a gallon of blackberries.

Each of three bags A, B, C contains white balls and black balls. A has a1 white & b1 black, B has a2 white & b2 black an

Answer:

See explanation ( Answers are too long)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will first compute a general probability for picking a white ball:

P (W) = a_1 / (a_1 + b_1) + a_2 / (a_2 + b_2) + a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)

part a)

We are asked to find the probability of white ball given that it pulled from bag A. So if we express it in notation we are asked for P ( A / W). We will use conditional probability to answer our question:

P ( A / W ) = P ( W & A ) / P (W)

P ( W & A ) = a_1 / (a_1 + b_1)

Hence,

P ( A / W ) = [a_1 / (a_1 + b_1)] / [a_1 / (a_1 + b_1) + a_2 / (a_2 + b_2) + a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)]

part b)

We are asked to find the probability of white ball given that it pulled from bag B. So if we express it in notation we are asked for P ( B / W). We will use conditional probability to answer our question:

P ( B / W ) = P ( W & B ) / P (W)

P ( W & B ) = a_2 / (a_2 + b_2)

Hence,

P ( A / W ) = [a_2 / (a_2 + b_2)] / [a_1 / (a_1 + b_1) + a_2 / (a_2 + b_2) + a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)]

part c)

We are asked to find the probability of white ball given that it pulled from bag C. So if we express it in notation we are asked for P ( C / W). We will use conditional probability to answer our question:

P ( C / W ) = P ( W & C ) / P (W)

P ( W & C ) = a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)

Hence,

P ( A / W ) = [a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)] / [a_1 / (a_1 + b_1) + a_2 / (a_2 + b_2) + a_3 / (a_3 + b_3)]

Please help it’s for Alex

Okay so the y is in absolute value, which means the number could be a negative and the absolute value would make is a positive.
since the sign is greater than, with no equal to underneath it, than the answer cant be 3 or -3.
the number has to total to be larger than 3. again, since the absolute value turns the negatives into positives, then -4 is an acceptable answer. so the absolute value line should look like the above (please excuse the terrible look). I simplified it to the two numbers that start the equation. the two circle are open circles because the sign does not include an equal sign under it. you draw the arrows on either side of the two numbers because any answer beyond those arrows fits in with the equation
| 4 |
| 184728 |
| -4.5829492994929492949572728 |

did that answer the problem?
