Because of the fact that the amberjack is essentially three snappers, it can be shown as 3s

since one snapper is one s, and the amberjack is 3s, we can combine like terms

s+3s = 4s

because altogether, the fish weigh 44 pounds, 4s would equal 44 (shown as 4s = 44), from there, simply divide by 4 on both sides to get the weight of a snapper;

s = 11

Small bonus (finding an amberjack)

Since an amberjack is equal to three snappers, and a snapper is 11 pounds, an amberjack would be 33 pounds.

In a certain game of chance, your chances of winning are 0.2. if you play the game five times and outcomes are independent, the
ikadub [295]
<span>Winning Probablity = 0.2, hence Losing Probability = 0.8 Probablity of winning atmost one time, that means win one and lose four times or lose all the times. So p(W1 or W0) = p (W1) + p(W0) Winning once W1 is equal to L4, winning zero times is losing 5 times. p(W1) = p(W1&L4) and this happens 5 times; p(W0) = p(L5); p (W1) + p(W0) = p(L4) + p(L5) p(L4) + p(L5) = (5 x 0.2 x 0.8^4) + (0.8^5) => 0.8^4 + 0.8^5 p(W1 or W0) = 0.4096 + 0.32768 = 0.7373</span>

The points (-1.6, 2.7) and (3.2, 7.98) are on the graph of a linear relationship between two variables, r and y.
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

  y = 1.1x +4.46

  y = 129.86 for x = 114

Step-by-step explanation:

The two-point form of the the equation for a line is useful for this.

  y = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)(x -x1) +y1

  y = (7.98 -2.7)/(3.2 -(-1.6))(x -(-1.6)) + 2.7

  y = 5.28/4.8(x +1.6) + 2.7

  y = 1.1x +1.76 +2.7

  y = 1.1x +4.46

__

When x=114, the value of y is ...

  y = 1.1(114) +4.46

  y = 129.86
