To find the probability that the mom is at the front of the line:

\frac{number \: of \: favorable \: outcomes}{total \: outcomes} \\ = \frac{number \: of \: ways \: where \: mum \: is \: at \: the \: front \: of \: the \: line}{total \: number \: of \: ways} \\ = \frac{1c1 ×4! }{5!} \\ = \frac{24}{120} \\ = \frac{1}{5}
Therefore the answer is 1/5.

Hope it helps!

The midpoint between (3,5) and (-2,1) would be:

Apply the formula:

x1+x2 / 2 , y1 + y2 / 2

= 3 + (-2) / 2, 5 + 1 /2

= 1/2, 6/2

A music store sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets in one month. Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99. If total s
vodomira [7]
Answer: 16

Solution:

1) Use letters to identify the variables:

Number of trumpets: t
Number of clarinets: c

2) Translate each statement into algebraic (mathematical) language.

2.1) Sold a total of 27 used trumpets and clarinets

=> t + c = 27

2.2) Trumpets cost $149 and clarinets cost $99

Total cost of the trumpets: 149t
Total cost of clarinets: 99c

Total cost = 149t + 99c

2.3) Total sales were $3223

=> 149t + 99c = 3223.

3) State the system of equations:

Equation (1) t + c = 27
Equation (2) 149t + 99c = 3223

4) Solve the system of equations:

4.1) Multiply equation 1 by 149:

=> 149t + 149c = 4023

4.2) Subtract the equation (2) from the equation obtained in 4.1

=> 149c - 99c = 4023 - 3223

=> 50c = 800

=> c = 800 / 50 = 16

5) Verify the solution:

From equation (1) t = 27 - 16 = 11

Total cost = 149*11 + 99*16 = 3223

Now you have a verified answer: they sold 16 clarinets
