let l = lance, and a = alex.
so: l + a = 70
and l = 4a
Putting the value for l in the first equation:
4a +a = 70
5a = 70
a = 14.
So Alex has 14 pencils. And Lance has (70-14) 56 pencils.
And if each child gets half of Alex' pencils, then each child will have 7 pencils.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
The experimental probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of times any particular event has occurred to the total number of times that event has taken place.
Experimental probability = P = No. of event occurrences / total number of occurrences.
In our question statement,
No of naturally occurring triplets are = 3375
Total number of births = 5 million = 5,000,000
Putting values in equation.


To get the probability that at least 8 of the words on the test are words that students know we need to do the following calculations.
<span>=[C(16,8)*C(10,2) + C(16,9)*C(10,1) + C(16,10)*C(10,0)] / C(26,10)
</span>
=0.132
Answer:
-1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking two points on the graph (I took (0,9) and (6,7)
Slope=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
(7-9)/(6-0)=-2/6
=-1/3
