Answer:
a) {P1P2, P1N, P1D,P2P1, P2N,P2D,NP1,NP2,ND,DP1,DP2,DN}
PP=2/12 NP=4/12 DP=4/12 DN=2/12
b) 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us call pennies by P1 and P2.
a)There are 12 possible outcomes as it is written above.
b)In order to have 11 cents we need a penny and the dime. There are 4 such possibilities (events). The total number is 12. So the probability is 4/12.
Answer: you spent 250 hours during your cleanup.
you spent 150 hours painting
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of hours that you spent during your cleanup.
Let y represent the number of hours that you spent painting.
you earn $8 an hour cleaning up and $12 an hour painting last summer and you earned $3800 . it means that
8x + 12y = 3800- - - - - - - - - -- 1
You worked a total of 400 hours. This means that
x + y = 400
Substituting x = 400 - y into equation 1, it becomes
8(400 - y) + 12y = 3800
3200 - 8y + 12y = 3800
- 8y + 12y = 3800 - 3200
4y = 600
y = 600/4 = 150 hours
Substituting y = 150 into x = 400 - y, it becomes
x = 400 - 150
x = 250 hours
3 miles. Using cross-multiplication, 3×4 = 12 and 4×1 = 4, so 12/4 = 3.
