The ration of white pair of socks and black pair of socks is 11:8 because Michael has already took one pair of the white socks so it's 11:8 between the two but to know the probability of one color you have to put it over the total amount of pair of socks so in total there are 19 now and 8 black pair of socks (were only looking for the probability of the black pair of socks and not the white)

8:19 is the ratio from black pair of socks to the total pairs of socks


You can also say 8/19 or 42% chance

Michael has already took white pair of socks, so that means that now in the drawer are left 11 pairs of white socks.

Therefore the propability of choosing a pair of black socks:
\frac{8}{19}

Leah knit a scarf that is 130 centimeters long, Theo knit a scarf that is 4/3 as long
Delvig [45]

Answer: Theo's scarf is  173 + 1/3 centimeters long.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scarf of Leah is 130 centimeters long.

The one of Theo is 4/3 as long as the one of Leah, then we have that the length of the scarf of Theo is:

Lenght = (4/3)*130 cm =(4*130)/3 cm =520/3 cm  

Now, we know that if all the digits of a number add up to a multiple of 3, that number is divisible by 3.

520/3 = (519 + 1)/3 = 519/3 + 1/3 = 173 + 1/3

Theo's scarf is  173 + 1/3 centimeters long.

Answer:

a) 3x - 6x^2y + 2xy - 2x

b) 4x^2 <u>- 3y </u>+ 2x <u>+ 7y</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Like terms is when the terms are the same.

For example, 3x and -2x would be like terms (both have x).

Not like terms would be 4x^2 and +2x (one is just an x and the other is x^2).
