Answer:

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of it being a cardinal is the number of cardinals / the total number of possible birds the hawk could eat.

There are 3 + 5 + 4 = 12 total birds near the bird feeder.

There are 3 cardinals.

So the probability is 3/12 = 1/4 that the cardinal is eaten!

A train leaves Los Angeles at 2 p.m. heading north at 50 mph. If the next train leaves three hours later and also heads north at
Mamont248 [21]
Since the first train has been travelling for 3 hours, we have the following equations:
d=50t+3*50=50t+150
d=60t

We want to know when they will be equal, so set these equal to eachother:
60t=50t+150
10t=150
t=15

So 15 hours after the second train leaves, they will be at the same distance. This is at 8AM since the second train leaves at 5PM.
