Hello,

Here is your answer:

The proper answer to this question is "4".

Here is how:

First convert the mix number into a fraction:

1 1/8=9/8

5*8=40
1*8=8
-
9*1=9
8*1=8

40-8=32

32/8=4
8/8=1

Which means your answer is 4/1 or 4!

If you need anymore help feel free to ask me!

Hope this helps!

A supplier delivers an order for 20 electric toothbrushes to a store. by accident, three of the electric toothbrushes are defect
evablogger [386]
<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>

The function has an intercept of -2 and y intercept of -2/3. Write an equation.
poizon [28]

Answer:

y= -1/3x - 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y- intercept is (0, -2/3) and the x intercept is (0, -2).

To find the slope of an equation, you do rise over run. To get from (0, -2/3) to (0, -2), you rise 2/3 and run -2. 2/3 divided by -2 is -1/3, that is where you get the slope from.
