Hello!

You have to find the probabilities of them happening separately

To do this you do the amount of favorable outcomes over the total amount of outcomes

3 + 2 + 2 + 2 + 5 = 14 total fruit

The chance of Jack getting a peach is 5 / 14

The chance of Bethany getting an orange is 2 / 13 because Jack did not put the fruit back in so their is one less to choose from

You multiply the two probabilities to find the probability of them happening in a row

5/14 * 2/13 = 5/91

The answer is 5/91

Hope this helps!

5/14 × 2/13 = 10/182

simplify by 2

10/182 ÷ 2/2

5/91

5 over 91

A system of equations has definitely many solutions. If 2y-4x=6 is one of the equations, which could be the other equation?
NISA [10]

The given equation is ⇒⇒⇒ 2y - 4x = 6

∴ 2y = 4x + 6   ⇒ divide all the equation over 2

∴ y = 2x + 3  and it can be written as ⇒⇒⇒ y - 2x = 3

The last equation represents a straight line with a slope = 2 and y-intercept = 3

To construct a system of equations with definitely many solutions and the equation ( 2y-4x=6 ) is one of the equations, the other equation must have the same slope and the same y-intercept.

so, the general solution of the other equation is ⇒ a ( y - 2x ) = 3a

Where a is constant and belongs to R ( All real numbers )

The system of equations which has definitely many solutions is consisting of <u>Coincident lines.</u>

grain is stored in cylindrical structures called silos which is the best estimate for the volume of a silo with a diameter of 12
zalisa [80]
Volume of a cylinder = base x height
the base is the area of the circle at the bottom. 

To find the area of a circle, you use:
A = πr²
where r is the radius of the circle. 
radius is half of the diameter, so with a diameter of 12.3, (divide that by 2) the radius of the circle is 6.15 feet. 

A = π(6.15)²
A ≈ 118.82 

Since we know the height is 25 feet, we can solve for the area of the cylinder. 

Area of the cylinder = 118.82 x 25 = 2,970.57 feet cubed

Yolanda bought 12 pounds of rice for $5 . How many pounds of rice did she get per dollar?
defon
<h3>Answer:  2.4 pounds per dollar</h3>

Explanation:

We can set up the ratio

12 pounds : 5 dollars

Then divide both parts of that ratio by 5 so that the "5 dollars" becomes "1 dollar"

  • 12/5 = 2.4
  • 5/5 = 1

The ratio 12 pounds : 5 dollars is equivalent to 2.4 pounds : 1 dollar
