<span>It doesn't matter that she guessed correctly on the first two questions, guessing the third question correctly is independent of guessing any other question correctly. Therefore, the probability is one out of four, 1/4.</span>
Answer:
(7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)
Step-by-step explanation:
a² - b² = (a + b)(a - b)
49y² - 9x² = (7y)² - (3x)² {a = 7y ; b - 3x}
= (7y + 3x)(7y - 3x)

1/3 is greater. Picture a pie with nothing cut into it. Then, you cut 3 equal pieces out of it, leaving no pie remaining. So, if you take 1 piece, you have 2 pieces that you didn't take. So if you do the exact same thing, but you cut <em>8 </em>pieces out of the pie and you take 1 piece, there are still 7 pieces remaining. So 1/8 is a smaller part of the pie than the 1/3, since you are cutting the pie into 8 identical pieces while with 1/3 you are cutting the same sized pie into 3 pieces. Sorry if I was confusing, just ask me if you want an easier-to-understand explanation. Also, if you pick a "brainliest" answer, it actually <em>gives </em>you points.
