Answer:

0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the probability of being late for Art class be a = 0.5 and the probability of being on time for Art class be b = 1 - a = 0.5

Let the probability of being late for Calculus class be c = 0.4 and the probability of being on time for Calculus class be d = 1 - a = 0.6

Probability of being on time in exactly one of the classes = Probability of being ((on time for Art and late for Calculus) or (on time for Calculus and late for art))

= (b × c) + (d × a) = (0.5 × 0.4) + (0.6 × 0.5) = 0.2 + 0.3 = 0.5

1/2x-9=-25 what is your answer
Elodia [21]
First, let's only the expression with x stay on the let side: let's add 9 to both sides of the equation.

\frac{1}{2} x-9+9=-25+9
which is
\frac{1}{2}x=-16


now, let's multiply everything by 2:

\frac{2}{2} x=-16*2
x=-32


so the answer is -32!

Answer: your mom gay ;)

Step-by-step explanation:

4,500 calories a day

If you ate the same amount each day, that means you would eat 3 a day, since 6 divided by 2 is 3.

Find how many calories you would eat each day by multiplying 3 by 1,500

3(1,500)

= 4500
