Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
77 quarters and dimes
q + d = 77
subtract q from both sides
d = 77 - q
---------------------------
A collection of quarters and dimes is worth $12.50 (1250 cents)
25q + 10d = 1250
substitute for d
25q + 10(77 - q) = 1250
distribute
25q + 770 - 10q = 1250
Combine like terms
15q + 770 = 1250
subtract 770 from both sides
15q = 480
divide both sides by 15
q = 32
First pear Second pear probability
green (3/7)---------green (2/6) (3/7)*(2/6) = 1/7
---------red (4/6) (3/7) *(4/6) = 2/7
red (4/7)-------------green (3/6) (4/7)*(3/6) = 2/7
-------------red (3/6) (4/7)*(3/6) = 2/7
-------------------------
1/7 + 2/7 + 2/7 + 2/7 = 1
The probailities that two are green are: 1/7
The probabilities that one is green and the other is red are:2 /7 + 2/7 = 4/7
The probabilities that two are red are: 2/7
Answer:
4 and 8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 'a' represent one of the numbers. Then the other is 12-a, and their difference is ...
a - (12-a) = -4
2a = 8 . . . . add 12
a = 4 . . . . . divide by 2
12-a = 8 . . . . find the other number
The two numbers are 4 and 8.
Answer:
55
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply by 5 to get it over 100, or the percent, you get 55/100 which can just be written as 0.55 or 55%.
