Mathematics
1 answer:
weqwewe [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2

2a - b = 1

-                         Elimination

2a + b = 2

-b - (b) = -1

-2b = -1

b = 0.5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2a + b = 2           Substitution

2a + 0.5 = 2

2a = 1.5

a = 0.75

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

a:b

0.75 : 0.5

or

3/4 : 1/2

Hope this helps!!!

A box contains 24 yellow, 33 green and 35 red jelly beans. If 8 jelly beans are selected at random, what is the probability that
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

0.00014

Step-by-step explanation:

The box contains a total of 24 + 33 + 35 = 92 jelly beans

If we need to pick 8 jelly beans and want them all to be green:

We can choose 8 green jelly beans from 33 green in  C₃₃,₈ different ways

The total ways we can choose 8 jelly beans out from 92 is: C₉₂,₈

Thus, the probability we're looking for is C₃₃,₈ / C₉₂,₈ = 13884156/93080887185 =0.00014

Julli [10]

Answer:

306 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

80% = 0.8

170 inches × 80% = 170 × 0.8 = 136

The truck is 80% longer than the boat. 80% of the boat is 136.

So, the boat is 170 inches + 136 inches = 306 inches.
