If you choose one person from the group, you have a 12/20 chance of them being a girl. Now, if the first person is a girl, we have one less girl and one less person to choose from. So, the new probability for the second person is 11/19.

Then, we multiply the chances

12/20 * 11/19

3/5 * 11/19

33/95

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the number of hours worked at the donut shop

y----> the number of hours worked at the school bookstore

we know that

x+y=20

x=20-y -----> equation A

10.25x+8.75y=196 -----> equation B

Substitute equation A in equation B and solve for y

10.25(20-y)+8.75y=196

205-10.25y+8.75y=196

10.25y-8.75y=205-196

1.5y=9

y=6 hours at the school bookstore

What is the first term in the sequence for which d = -2 and a7 = 3?
AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Final answer is c. 15

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find about what is the first term in the sequence for which d = -2 and a7 = 3

We will use nth term formula of arithmetic sequence.

a_n=a+\left(n-1\right)d

we have been given a7 that means 7th term is 3

so plug n=7, d=-2 and a_n=3 into above formula

3=a+\left(7-1\right)(-2)

3=a+6(-2)

3=a-12

15=a

Hence final answer is c. 15
