Because 3/4 and 3/8 is more than one cup, Jasmine will not be able to mix the flour and the cornmeal in the container.

3/4+3/8=6/8+3/8=9/8

We know that 8/8 is equivalent to 1 (cup). We have to combine the fractions using a common denominator. A common denominator in this case would be 8. To change 3/4, you must multiply the numerator and denominator by two, because that will give you 8 on the bottom and also, whatever you do to the top you must do to the bottom, and vice versa. So, now we have 3/8 & 6/8. To add fractions you just add the numerators and keep the common denominator. You get 9/8. If 8/8 is 1, than 9/8 exceeds the 1 cup limit, and therefore Jasmine cannot mix the ingredients in that container.

In a carnival​ game, the player selects a ball one at a​ time, without​ replacement, from an urn containing twotwo purplepurple
dezoksy [38]
<span>The urn contains 2 purple balls and 4 white balls. The player pay $4 for start the game and get $1.5 for every ball drawn until one purple ball is drawn. The maximal revenue would be $7.5 when 4 white balls and 1 purple balls are drawn.
If the purple ball is p and white ball is w, t</span>he possible sample space of drawings are {p, wp, wwp, wwwp, wwwwp}

<span>1. Write down the probability distribution for the player earning

The player earning </span>for each event depends on the number of balls drawn subtracted the ticket price.<span>
p= 2/6
The player earnings would be: 1*$1.5 -$4= - $2.5
wp= (4*2)/(6*5) = 4/15
</span>The player earnings would be: 2*1.5- $4= - $1
wwp= (4*3*2)/(6*5*4)= 1/5
The player earnings would be: 3*$1.5 -$4= $0.5
wwwp= (4*3*2*2)/(6*5*4*3*2)= 2/15 
The player earnings would be: 4*$1.5 -$4= $2
wwwwp= (4*3*2*2*1)/(6*5*4*3*2*1) = 1/15
The player earnings would be: 5*$1.5 -$4=  $3.5

2. Find its expected value

The expected value would be:
chance of event * earning 
You need to combine the 5 possible outcomes from the number 1 to get the total expected value.

Total expected value= (1/3 * - 2.5)+ (4/15*-1) + (1/5*0.5) + (2/15 *2) + ( 1/15 *3.5)= 
(-12.5  -4 + 1.5 + 4 + 3.5) /15= -$7.5
This game basically a rip off.

A shop sells chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ice creams. 45% of the ice creams sold are vanilla, and 1/4 are strawberry. What
OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Well since we know that 45% is vanilla that means we have part of our answer

Also we know we sold 1/4 strawberry which in percent that would be 25%

If we add 45% with 25%  45+25=70 then since something can only be 100%

100%-70%=30%

you sold 30% chocolate

Can the Commutative and Associate properties be used when subtracting fractions? Why or why not?
jeka57 [31]
No, for example 8-1. If you do the Commutative property, it would be 1-8; which would be a negative number. Associate property is basically the same thing; so no, you can't.
