<h2>Answer:</h2>

Option: A is the correct answer.

The probability that you and your friend both are chosen is:

                              A.   \dfrac{5}{35}

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

There are a total of 7 people and out of which 3 are to be selected.

Total possible ways of choosing three people are: 35

Also, now if you and your friend are chosen then there are 5 people left and now only one person is to be chosen out of these 5 people.

Hence, the probability is calculated as:

\dfrac{5_C_1}{35}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{5!}{(5-1)!\times 1!}}{35}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\dfrac{5\times 4!}{4!}}{35}\\\\\\=\dfrac{5}{35}

          Hence, the answer is:

            Option: A

Answer:  \frac{2}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The total number of ways of to choose 3 contestants out of 7 (including me and my friend)=35..................> Total outcomes.

Favorable outcomes = 2

Then the probability that me and my friend are both chosen =\frac{\text{favorable outcomes }}{\text{Total outcomes}}

Thus , the probability that me and my friend are both chosen =\frac{2}{35}

You have been given the task of transporting 3,000 apples 1,000 miles from Appleland to Bananaville. Your truck can carry 1,000
chubhunter [2.5K]
If the truck can carry 1000 apples at a time, Bananaville is 1000 miles away from Appleland and you pay one apple per mile, then it's impossible to deliver any apple to Bananaville, because on 1000 miles you'll pay 1 apple * 1000 miles = 1000 apples as a tax. So no matter if you go once, twice, three times or a hundred times there - you'll be never able to deliver any apple.

Answer: The highest number of apples you can get to Bananaville is 0.

Name the property of real numbers illustrated by the equation.
Julli [10]

Answer:

Distributive property

Step-by-step explanation:

The distributive property states a(b+c)=a*b+a*c. This property states that when you multiply more than one thing, you must be sure to multiply everything. When you order fast food combos, you do the distribution property to receive the correct order.

If I order 3 Happy Meals, then I will receive

3(hamburgers +fries + drinks +toys)

3 hamburgers+3 fries+3 drinks+3 toys.

If I don't, then I have broken the distribution property.
