Distribute on the left side
7.4a+22.2=3.2a+43.2
Subtract 3.2a from both sides
4.2a+22.2=43.2
Subtract 22.2 from both sides
4.2a=21
Divide both sides by 4.2
a=5
In probability 2 events are independent if the occurrence of 1 event does not affect the occurrence of the other event. Mathematically, if event A and event B are independent, then
. For our two events in this problem we have that
and
. If these two events are independent, then we should have that,

.A and B are independent events if the probability of A and B is 0.1
Uh, rude. The answer to this is that Rico should've moved the decimal to the right twice, not the left.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Given that x and y are proportional and the equation relating them is
y = rx ← r is the constant of proportionality
To find r use any ordered pair from the table
Using x = 9, y = 4.5 , then
4.5 = 9r ( divide both sides by 9 )
= r , that is
r =
