First you should write what you know since we don't know how many helmets we will use x

helmets - 5(x)
bats - 3(6x)

then write out the equation

5(x)+3(6x)=4600

then solve so first multiple 5 times x and multiply 3 and 6x

5x+18x=4600

then combine like terms which are 5x and 18x

23x=4600

then divide both sides by 23

x=200

200is the number of helmets and since there are six times the bats as helmets you multiply that by six and get

helmets=200
bats=1200

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

P(green or orange) = 4/7

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to know how many tennis balls there are

total = 15 yellow+ 5 orange+ 15 green

= 35 balls

Probability of green or orange tennis ball is the sum of the green and orange tennis balls over the total balls

P(green or orange) = (green + orange)/total

= (15+5)/35

=20/35

=4/7

There are 9 movies ranked on the summer's "must see movie list." What is the probability that you guess the summer's top two mus

oee [108]

Answer:

1/36 = 0.0278 = 2.78% probability that you guess the summer's top two must see movies if you randomly guess

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this question, the order in which the movies are chosen is not important, which means that we use the combinations formula to solve this question.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Desired outcomes:

Top two movies, so only one outcome, which means that $D = 1$

Total outcomes:

Two movies from a set of 1. So

$T = C_{9,2} = \frac{9!}{2!(9-2)!} = 36$

Probability:

$p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{36} = 0.0278$

1/36 = 0.0278 = 2.78% probability that you guess the summer's top two must see movies if you randomly guess
