Look at some shorter periods of time to decide whether their reasonable. Do that by simplifying the fraction. . . . . 40,000 pounds / 80 years = 4,000 pounds / 8 years = 2,000 pounds (1 ton) / 4 years = 1,000 pounds / 2 years (have you decided yet ? Well, simplify it some more) 1,000 pounds / 2 years = 500 pounds per year = almost 1 and 1/2 pounds of bread every day of your life. NOW what do you think ? Make sense ?

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
Ronch [10]
The formulas for conditional probability are:
P(A\cap B')=P(A)\cdot P(B'|A)
P(A\cap B')=P(B')\cdot P(A|B').
Since P(A\cap B')= \frac{1}{6} and p(B')= \frac{7}{18}, you have the equation \frac{1}{6} = \frac{7}{18} \cdot P(A|B').
Therefore, P(A|B')= \frac{1}{6} : \frac{7}{18} =\frac{1}{6} \cdot \frac{18}{7} = \frac{3}{7}.
Answer: The correct choice is D.

Which graph represents (x,y)-pairs that make the equations y= 0.5x true?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the corresponding graph substitute values of x.

The graph is: $ y = \frac{1}{2} x $. Substitute $ x = 2 $.

We get: $ y = \frac{1}{2} (4) = 2 $. In the graphs only in Option C, y = 2 when x = 4.

Dr. Ellison says that the equation y = 17x + 1 has a solution of (1,18).
nekit [7.7K]

The solution of an equation is the true value of the equation.

The true statement is <em>(a) Dr. Ellison is right</em>

<em />

The equation is given as:

\mathbf{y =17x + 1}

The solution is given as: (1,18)

Substitute 1 for x and 18 for y.

So, we have:

\mathbf{18 =17 \times 1 + 1}

Multiply

\mathbf{18 =17 + 1}

Add

\mathbf{18 =18}

The above equation is true.

Hence, the true statement is (a) Dr. Ellison is right
