Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The x and y intercepts occur when either x or y = 0
For the y intercept, x = 0
3(0) - 5y + 15 = 0
- 5y + 15 = 0 Subtract 15 from both sides.
-5y = - 15 Divide by - 5
-5y / -5 = - 15/-5
y = 3
For x intercept, y = 0
3x - 5(0) + 15 = 0
3x + 15 = 0 Subtract 15 from both sides
3x = - 15 Divide by 3
3x/3 = - 15/3
x = - 5
xintercept = (-5,0)
yintercept = (0,3)
The answer to 3 3/16 divided by 3/8 is 8 1/2. This is because you have to turn the mixed number into an improper fraction and then divide by the method of keep change flip in order to get your answer
Answer:
Consider the complete question is,
'The odds in favor of frank McKinney winning a hot dog eating contest are 2:9,
- Determine the probability that Frank will win the contest,
- Determine the probability that Frank will not win the contest'
Solution :
We know that,
Odds in favor : the ratio of the number of ways that an outcome can occur compared to how many ways it cannot occur.
We have,

So, total outcomes = 2 + 9 = 11,

Thus, the probability that Frank will win the contest = 
And,
The probability that Frank will win the contest =
