<h3>♫ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ~Hello There!~ - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - ♫</h3>

➷ First calculate how many counters are 'not white'

12 - 7 = 5

We have 5 counters that are 'not white'

The probability of taking a white counter the first time is 7/12

For the next pick, there would be 1 less of the total counters as it is not being replaced

The probability of then taking a 'not white' counter is 5/11

The other way you could still get one white counter is:

The first counter (non white) probability would be 5/12

The second counter (white) probability would be 7/11

Multiply these values:

7/12 x 5/11 = 35/132

5/12 x 7/11 = 35/132

Add these two values together:

35/132 + 35/132 = 70/132

Your answer is 70/132

➶ Good Luck (:

➶ Have A Great Day ^-^

Oliver was counting his spare change. He had ten dimes and two quarter. How many times as many dimes does Oliver have than quart
zalisa [80]
1 quarter = 25 cents (he has 2 therefore its 50 cents)
10 dimes = 100 cents = 1 dollar
Oliver has twice as many dimes than he does quarters because 100 divided by 50 = 2. Hope this helps!

Russell randomly surveys seventh-graders in his school and finds that 6 of 30 attend summer camp. If there are 200 seventh-grade
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

6 of 30 is the ratio 6 to 30 or 6/30.

6/30 reduces to 1/5

The survey shows that 1/5 of the students attend summer camp.

1/5 of 200 = 1/5 * 200 = 40

F(x)=X over x^3-2x^2+5x why will this have no zeros​
Mumz [18]

If you evaluate directly this function at x=0, you'll see that you have a zero denominator.

Nevertheless, the only way for a fraction to equal zero is to have a zero numerator, i.e.

\dfrac{x}{x^3-2x^2+5x}=0\iff x=0

So, this function can't have zeroes, because the only point that would annihilate the numerator would annihilate the denominator as well.

Moreover, we have

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{x}{x^3-2x^2+5x} = \lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{x}{x(x^2-2x+5)} = \lim_{x\to 0} \dfrac{1}{x^2-2x+5} = \dfrac{1}{5}

So, we can't even extend with continuity this function in such a way that f(0)=0
