Ajar contains 12 caramels, 7 mints and 16

Mathematics
1 answer:
tangare [24]3 years ago

Answer: 1/5

Step-by-step explanation: To find the probability of selecting a mint out of the jar, we use our ratio for the probability of an event which is shown below.

(P) event = <em>number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes</em>.

Since there are 7 mints in the jar, the number of favorable outcomes is 4 and since there are 35 candies in all,

the total number of outcomes is 35.

Therefore, the probability of selecting a mint is 7/35.

Notice however that 7/35 is not in lowest terms so we need to divide the numerator and denominator of 7/35 by their greatest common factor of 7 to get 1/5.

So our final answer for the probability of selecting a mint is 1/5.

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

15=a

Step-by-step explanation:

how I got this is because a triangle is equal to 180 so you have to add all of the things together then you get 12a=180 the reason why I got this is because if you add it so 6x+3a-1+3a+1 so you add common terms then you will equal to 12a then you divide it on both sides so then you equal to 15

Paul travel to the lake and back. The trip took 3 hours and the trip back took 4 hours He averaged 10 mph faster on the trip the
ollegr [7]

Answer:

  40 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume "outbound" refers to the trip <em>to the lake</em>. The ratio of speeds is inversely proportional to the ratio of times, so ...

  outbound speed : inbound speed = 4 : 3

These differ by one ratio unit, so that one ratio unit corresponds to the speed difference of 10 mph. Then the 4 ratio units of outbound speed will correspond to ...

  4×10 mph = 40 mph

Paul's average speed on the outbound trip was 40 mph.

___

The distance to the lake was 120 mi.

Okay so basically you will need two sets of working out.
Sandra:
I=PRN
=14000x7x0.045
=4410
Cindy:
I=PRN
=14000x7x0.06
=5880
5880-4410
=1470
Therefore, Cindy earnt $1470 more than Sandra after 7 years.

Shureka Washburn has scores of 67​, 68​, 76​, and 63 on her algebra tests. a. Use an inequality to find the scores she must make
mash [69]
Average=(total number)/(number of items)
given that the final exam counts as two test, let the final exam be x. The weight of the final exams on the average is 2, thus the final exam can be written as 2x because any score Shureka gets will be doubled before the averaging.
Hence our inequality will be as follows:
(67+68+76+63+2x)/6≥71
(274+2x)/6≥71
solving the above we get:
274+2x≥71×6
274+2x≥426
2x≥426-274
2x≥152
x≥76

b] The above answer is x≥76, the mean of this is that if Shureka is aiming at getting an average of 71 or above, then she should be able to get a minimum score of 76 or above. Anything less than 76 will drop her average lower than 71.
