14/20=0.7 or 70% are soft-centred. If we take two candies we have three possibilities associated with probabilities:
Both soft-centred: 0.7²=0.49 or 49%
Both hard-centred: 0.3²=0.09 or 9%
One of each: 2×0.3×0.7=0.42 or 42%. 49+9+42=100%. So these are all the possible outcomes.
If she can drive 4180 miles in <em>two </em>weeks, it would make sense that she would drive an average of <em>half </em>that distance in <em>one </em>week. Half of 4180 is 2090, so she averaged 2090 miles each week.
Answer:
slope = 3
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Given
9x - 3y = - 54 ( subtract 9x from both sides )
- 3y = - 9x - 54 ( divide all terms by 0 3 )
y = 3x + 18 ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = 3
Parallel lines have equal slopes, thus
slope of parallel line is 3
The population of a town has approximately doubled every 17 years since 1950.
the equation P=
where Po is the population of the town in 1950, is used to model the population, P, of the town t years after 1950.
When t=17 yrs
P=2
for 1 year
The equation becomes
P =
-------------(1)
Our original equation is
----------------------------------(2)
equating expression 1 and 2

Cancelling
from both sides we get

t/17=k
⇒k=t/17 is the solution.
