The probability that both grab oranges would be =
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A bowl contains,
Apples = a = 5
Oranges = o = 2
bananas = b = 2
Total fruits in bowl = x = a + o + b = 5 + 2 + 2 = 9
Now, Christian and Aaron come home from school and randomly grab one fruit each.
The probability of first selecting orange would be =
Now, the oranges left would be 2 - 1 = 1
and total fruits would be = 9 - 1 = 8
Hence, the probability of selecting second orange would be =
Therefore, the probability that both grab oranges would be =
Given:
Number of trips = 7
Distance from the school to the museum = 36 miles.
To find:
Write and solve equations to find how many miles the bus driver drove for the 7 trips.
Solution:
Let x be the number of trips and y be the total number of miles the bus driver drove.
Distance from the school to the museum = 36 miles.
1 trip means from the school to the museum and then from the museum to the school.
Distance covered in 1 trip = 2×36 = 72 miles.
Distance covered in x trips = 72x miles.
Substitute x=7 in the above equation to find the total distance the bus driver drove for the 7 trips.
Therefore, the bus driver drove 504 miles for the 7 trips.
