I think the equation would be -(1/2)
Since this is area you'll simply just do 18 x 29 which equals 522 and compare it to the amount of bricks she currently has. In this case, no, Sharon does not have enough bricks as she is 22 bricks short.
Basket 1: 8 total, 2 cranberry
Basket 2: 9 total, 6 cranberry
Probability of taking 2 cranberry from basket 1
2/8 = 1/4
Probability of taking 2 cranberry from basket 2
6/9 = 2/3
Combined probability:
1/4 * 2/3 = 2/12 = 1/6
Multiply by 60/5280 which is how many seconds per minute over the amount of feet per mile
Answer:
Then, a=-1 and b=-1
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to solve the following system of equations using the adition method:
2a+3b=-1 (i)
3a+5b=-2 (ii)
First, we multiply the equation (i) by -3 and the equation (ii) by 2, so we get:
-6a-9b=3
6a+10b=-4
Adding the two equations we have:
-6a-9b=3
6a+10b=-4
--------------------------
0 + b = -1
Then b=-1. Now, let's substitute the value of b into equation (i):
2a+3b=-1
2a + 3(-1) = -1
2a -3 = -1
2a = 2
a = 1
Then, a=-1 and b=-1
