Answer:

The amount of money that Darcy and Jason have together is $124

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> amount of money that Darcy has

y -----> amount of money that Jason has

z ----> amount of money that Maria has

we know that

x+y+z=268 ------> equation A

y=x+20 -----> x=y-20 -----> equation B

z=2y -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

(y-20)+y+2y=268

4y-20=268

4y=268+20

4y=288

y=72

Find the value of x

x=y-20 -----> x=72-20=52

so

The amount of money that Darcy has is $52

The amount of money that Jason has is $72

therefore

$52+$72=$124

The amount of money that Darcy and Jason have together is $124

Answer:

a. p(orange) = 5/14

b. p(green) = 3/14

c. p(red) = 1/7  

d. p(brown) = 2/7  

e. p(brown or red) = 3/7

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You have a 14 pencils. Two pencils are red, 5 pencils are orange, 3 pencils are green and 4 pencils are brown.

p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/(total number of pencils)

p(color) = (number of pencils of that color)/14

a. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be orange?

p(orange) = 5/14

b. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be green?

p(green) = 3/14

c. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil will be red?

p(red) = 2/14 = 1/7

d. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be brown?

p(brown) = 4/14 = 2/7

e. If a pencil is picked at random, what is the probability that the pencil

will be brown or red?

brown: 4

red: 2

brown or red: 4 + 2

p(brown or red) = 6/14 = 3/7

Find the fifth term in the sequence that is defined as follows an=n2+2
Angelina_Jolie [31]
A(5) = 2 + 5^2 = 2 + 25 = 27
Step-by-step explanation:
This sequence is defined as a(n) = 2 + n^2.
Thus, a(1) = 2 + 1^2 = 2 + 1 = 3
Then a(5) = 2 + 5^2 = 2 + 25 = 27
