To find the average number of books donated per month, we first get the total number of books that Eric has donated within the span of (8 - 3) = 5 months. Since from 157 books, there were only 102 books left after 5 months, that means he has donated (157 - 102) = 55 books. That means that he has donated 55 books within the span of 5 monhs. Thus, the average number of books would be equal to (number of books) / (number of months) = 55 / 5 = 11 books per month. <span>Answer: 11 books</span>

Find the x- and y-intercepts of the graph of — 7x + 8y = 40. State your answers as
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

x-intercept is (40/7, 0) and y-intercept is (0, 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

x-intercept ==> y-coordinate is 0 ==> y=0

y-intercept ==> x-coordinate is 0 ==> x=0

because the function is 7x + 8y = 40

when y = 0 ==> 7x = 40 ==> x = 40/7

so the x-intercept is (40/7, 0)

when x = 0 ==> 8y = 40 ==> y = 5

so the y-intercept is (0,5)

Suppose a jar contains 10 red marbles and 34 blue marbles. If you reach in the jar and pull out 2 marbles at random at the same
denpristay [2]

Answer:

The probability that both are red is P(red\:and \:red)=\frac{45}{946}\approx0.04756\approx4.756\%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is simply how likely something is to happen and its given by

<em>Probability of an event = (# of ways it can happen) / (total number of outcomes)</em>

Two events are dependent when the outcome of the first event influences the outcome of the second event. The probability of two dependent events is the product of the probability of X and the probability of Y AFTER X occurs.

                                     P(A\:and\: B)=P(A)\cdot P(A|B)

At our first pull, there is an P(red)=\frac{10}{10+34} chance that a red will be pulled.

At the second pull there is a P(red)=\frac{9}{9+34} chance that the second marble will be red.

Therefore, the probability that both are red is

P(red\:and \:red)=\frac{10}{10+34}\cdot \frac{9}{9+34}=\frac{45}{946}\approx0.04756\approx4.756\%

I need help on this one ?
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

1.5^2 = 2.25

(it looks like 1.5 but if it's 15 then it would be 225)

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5^2 means (1.5*1.5) you multiply the number by itself by how many it says to do. So if it were 1.5^52 you would multiply 1.5 by 1.5, 52 times.
