To find the probability of Joseph picking a key lime piece of taffy you will create a fraction with the number of possible outcomes over the total possible outcomes.
<u># of key lime taffies</u> <u>12</u>
total # of taffies = 60
12/60 = 1/5
1/5 = 0.2
Joseph has a 0.2 probability of picking a key lime taffy.
Answer:
The numbers are -14,-13 and -12
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The correct question is </em></u>
Find three consecutive integers such that the sum of the first, twice the second and three times the third is -76. What is the number?
Let
x ----> the first consecutive integer
x+1 ---> the second consecutive integer
x+2 ---> the third consecutive integer
we have that

solve for x
apply distributive property

Combine like terms

subtract 8 both sides


Divide by 6 both sides

so


therefore
The numbers are -14,-13 and -12
Answer:
10%
0.10
1/10
Step-by-step explanation:
100% = 10/10
when you subtract 9/10 from 10/10 you get 1/10=10%
Subtract 10x
10x + y = -19
10x + 3y = -17
You would get:
-2y = -2
Two negatives make a positive number! Divide
y = 1
Plug in
10x + (1) = -19
10x = -20
Divide
x = -2
Your solutions are
x = -2
y = 1
A is 0.025 from what i worked out, I hope it is correct :)
