The probability that an event occurs is the number of times it could occur compared to the total number of possible events, assuming the probability of each event occurring is equal.

John has 4+8=12 coins total. If 4 of the coins are dimes, the probability that he draws a dime is \frac{4}{12}=\frac{1}{3}\approx 33\% \approx 0.33.

k-4/3= 3

Mutiply both sides by 3 .

(3)(k-4/3)= (3)(3)

Cross out 3 and 3 , divide by 3 and then becomes k-4= 9

Move -4 to the other side

Sign changes from -4 to +4

k-4+4= 9+4

k= 13

Answer: k= 13

What is the value of 324 + 435 + 546 when written in base 7?
Arada [10]
<span>The sum of 324, 435, and 546 is 1305. If this number were to be expressed by the base of 7, we would need to figure out what value of exponent would satisfy the requirement. This can be done by setting up an equation where 7 to the power of x must equal 1305. Using logarithms, one can solve for x and find it to be 3.6866853. Thus the sum of the aforementioned numbers, expressed in by the base of 7, is 7^3.6866853.</span>
