Answer:

$\frac{11}{15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

A = $\frac{1}{3}$

B = $\frac{2}{5}$

A = $\frac{1x5}{3x5}=\frac{5}{15}$

B = $\frac{2x3}{5x3}=\frac{6}{15}$

$\frac{5}{15}$ + $\frac{6}{15}$ = $\frac{11}{15}$

Good Luck!

The total length of the two ribbons is $1\frac{1}{15}$ meters.

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

Ribbon A = $\frac{1}{3}$ m long

Ribbon A = B - $\frac{2}{5}$ m so B = A + $\frac{2}{5}$ = $\frac{1}{3}$ + $\frac{2}{5}$

Total Ribbon = A + B

= $\boxed { A + B = \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{5} }\\ \boxed {= \frac{5+5+6}{15} = \frac{16}{15} }\\\boxed {= 1\frac{1}{15} }$

So the total length of the two ribbons is $1\frac{1}{15}$ meters.

Question is down below

Bingel [31]

This is a great question!

To determine the probability with which two sweets are not the same, you would have to subtract the probability with which two sweets are the same from 1. That would only be possible if she chose 2 liquorice sweets, 5 mint sweets and 3 humburgs -

$Probability( 2 Liquorice) = 12 / 20 * 11 / 19$

As you can see, the first time you were to choose a Liquorice, there would be 12 out of the 20 sweets present. After taking that out however, there would be respectively 11 Liquorice out of 19 remaining. Apply the same concept to each of the other sweets -

$Probability(2 Mint ) = 5 / 20 * 4 / 19,\\Probability( 2 Humbugs ) = 3/20 * 2/19$

____

Calculate the probability of drawing 2 of each, add them together and subtract from one to determine the probability that two sweets will not be the same type of sweet!

$1-\left(\frac{132}{380}+\frac{20}{380}+\frac{6}{380}\right) =\\\frac{111}{190}$

<u><em>Thus, the probability should be 111 / 190</em></u>

Answer:

43°

Step-by-step explanation:

angle 1 and Angle 2 are corresponding angles. app they are equal.

73-2x = 88-3x

x = 15

angle 1 = 73-(2*15) = 43

angle 2 = 88-(3*15) = 43

HELP PLEASE IM REALLY STUCK

The 15th term will be 71. Why? Well, see below for an explanation!

By subtracting all of these numbers by the term that comes prior to them, we will find that all of them result in 5. Because of this, we know that each time the term increases, 5 is being added to the numbers. Additionally, I noticed that all of the numbers in this arithmetic sequence only end in a 1 or a 6. Because of this, we can apply the same principle when adding 5 each time:

First term: 1
Second term: 6
Third term: 11
Fourth term: 16
Fifth term: 21
Sixth term: 26
Seventh term: 31
Eighth term: 36
Ninth term: 41
Tenth term: 46
Eleventh term: 51
Twelfth term: 56
Thirteenth term: 61
Fourteenth term: 66
Fifteenth term: 71

By adding 5 each time and keeping in mind that the digits all end in only 1 or 6, we will find that the fifteenth term results in 71. Therefore, the 15th term is 71.

Your final answer: The 15th term of this arithmetic sequence comes down to be 71. If you need extra help, let me know and I will gladly assist you.
