Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is A. 8/243

There are in total 18 objects:

6 nuts + 8 bolts + 4 screws = 18 objects

The probability of choosing a nut is: 6/18 (since there are 6 nuts of total 18 objects).

The probability of choosing a bolt is: 8/18 (since there are 6 bolts of total 18 objects).

The probability of choosing a screw is: 4/18 (since there are 4 screws of total 18 objects).

The answer is A. 8/243

There are in total 18 objects:
6 nuts + 8 bolts + 4 screws = 18 objects

The probability of choosing a nut is: 6/18 (since there are 6 nuts of total 18 objects).
The probability of choosing a bolt is: 8/18 (since there are 6 bolts of total 18 objects).
The probability of choosing a screw is: 4/18 (since there are 4 screws of total 18 objects).

Because replacement occurs each time, there are always 18 objects. Also, since selecting a nut, a bolt, and a screw occurs together, we will use the multiplication rule and multiply the probabilities of events occurring together:
P= \frac{6}{18} *\frac{8}{18} *\frac{4}{18} =\frac{1}{3} *\frac{4}{9} *\frac{2}{9} =\frac{8}{243}

Someone please help with this question!
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

There are 0.475 pounds of apples in each tart.

I arrived in this number by dividing the total number of pounds by the total number of tarts made.

475 pounds divided by 1000 tarts is equal to 0.475 pounds per tart.

475 lbs/1000 tarts = 0.475 lbs/tart

So, if you are to bake a certain number of tarts and need to know the total number of pounds of apple needed to bake you can use this equation.

y = 0.475x

where y represents the total number of pounds needed to bake x number of tarts with a fixed 0.475 pounds per tart.

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

This isnt a cartisean coordinate plane so A is wrong. One of our points is at

- 3 + i

Because it coincide with real number 3, and negative imaginary number i.

Conjugates are terms with opposite inverse of terms.

So our conjugates is

- 3 - i

It’s actually 28t - 10

11(2t-4)+6t-6
22t-4+6t-6 add 22t and 6t
28t-4-6 combine -4 & -6
28t-10
