Answer:

P(0,0) = 2/12 times 1/11 = 1/66

Step-by-step explanation:

For probability questions, think of each event happening separately, it makes the maths easier to understand. For example, in this question, do not think of the two boys taking a fruit at the same time - that makes the maths complicated

.

Let Daniel take a fruit first, then Sean can take a fruit. There are two parts to consider.

P

r

o

b

a

b

i

l

i

t

y

=

number of desirable outcomes

total number of possible outcomes

For Daniel: there are 12 different pieces of fruit in the bowl, he just takes one without choosing a specific fruit. (random)

The chance that Daniel takes an orange is

2

12

Of the 12 pieces of fruit. 2 are oranges.

Now Sean: the numbers of fruit in the bowl have changed. There are now only 11 pieces of fruit in the bowl, and only 1 is an orange.

The chance that Sean takes an orange is

1

11

Area of a rectangle with a width of 36cm and a perimeter of 80cm
grandymaker [24]

The area would be 144cm^2.

In order to find the area, we need to know the length of the rectangle. We can find that using the perimeter formula.

2l + 2w = P

2l + 2(36) = 80

2l + 72 = 80

2l = 8

l = 4

So now that we know the length is 4, we can find the area using that formula.

A = lw

A = (4)(36)

A = 144

What is the average rate of change in f(x) over the interval [4,13]?
mestny [16]

we know that

Average Rate of Change. is the change in the y-value divided by the change in the x-value for two distinct points on the graph

So

A=\frac{(f(b)-f(a))}{(b-a)}

in this problem

a=4\\ b=13\\ f(a)=f(4)=8\\ f(b)=f(13)=11

substitute the values in the formula above

A=\frac{(11-8)}{(13-4)} \\ \\ A=\frac{3}{9}

Divide by 3 both numerator and denominator

A=\frac{1}{3}

therefore

the answer is

\frac{1}{3}
