Answer:
<u>The probability that Deena will choose a pair of white socks is 4/10 or 40%</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's check the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:
Total pairs or socks Deena has = 10
Pairs of white socks Deena has = 4
Pairs of black socks Deena has = 3
Pairs of red socks Deena has = 1
Pairs of navy socks Deena has = 2
If she pulls a pair of socks out of her drawer in the morning without looking, what is the probability that she will choose a pair of white socks?
Probability of Deena will choose a pair of white socks = Pairs of white socks Deena has/Total pairs or socks Deena has
Replacing with the real values, we have:
Probability of Deena will choose a pair of white socks = 4/10 or 40%
Plotting that point puts us at a y value of -5 (the y coordinate of the point P). y=-8 is a straight horizontal line through y=-8, so the distance from -5 to -8 is 3. Remember that distance is never negative. Distance is measured using the absolute value of the numbers. So b is your choice.
<span>The geese are required to make a 5000 meter journey. For every 500 meters they travel forward they are blown back 50 meters. Therefore rather than traveling forward 500 meters, they travel forward only 450 meters. Presumably this happens during the whole course of each section of the flight, so when they travel fractions of the distance they are blown back in the same proportion. Since each 450 meter gain requires 3 minutes, and it will take 11.11111 450 meter sections of flight, it will take 33.333333 minutes. Since they leave at 11:30, they will arrive at 12:03 and roughly twenty seconds.</span>
