Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first equation is the weights of the rabbit and the ferret together which is

r + f = 7.

The second equation puts the weight of the ferret in terms of the rabbit. If the ferret's weight is 2 pounds more than the rabbit, then

f = r + 2 (the word "is" means equals). Since we know what f is equal to, we will sub it into the first equation and solve for r:

r + (r + 2) = 7 and

2r + 2 = 7 and

2r = 5 so

r = 2.5 pounds.

A rabbit weights 2.5 pounds and the ferret weights 7 - 2.5 which is 4.5 pounds.

Taka conducts an experiment where he rolls a number cube, with sides labeled from 1 to 6, and then flips a coin. This table show
sweet [91]
The experimental probability is 1/6, and the theoretical probability is 1/4. The theoretical probability is greater than the experimental probability in this trial.-------------------Explanation:
Theoretical probability is the mathematically calculated probability of the circumstances occurring. 
There is a 1/2 chance of rolling an even number, and a 1/2 chance of flipping a coin on heads.
Since the question asks for the possibility of both happening, multiply those together to find the probability:


The theoretical probability of rolling an even number and then flipping a head is 1/4.
Now we'll focus on Taka's trials.
Experimental probability is the probability that is taken from results of a trial.
Take the results, and see if they match the criteria of rolling an even number and flipping heads.
The results that are bolded fit the criteria:1 H, 4 T, 1 H, 5 T, 2 H, 3 T, 6 T, 2 H, 3 T, 5 T, 3 H, 4 T
Taka managed to roll and flip the coin to fit the criteria 2 times out of 12. Converted into a fraction, it is 2/12. Simplified, the experimental probability is 1/6
