Answer:

0.216

Step-by-step explanation:

If the probability of green, P(green) is 40%, the probability of red, P(red) is 60%.

The probability of a light being red is not affected by the colour of the previous light, so at each of the 3 lights, the probability of red is always 60%.

To find the probability that all three lights will be red, multiply the three probabilities together. (Convert them to decimals first).

0.6 x 0.6 x 0.6 = 0.216

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week. Write and solve an equation to represent the number of minute
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table

Chore             time in minutes

Sweeping           42

Dishes                  ?

Amanda spent a total of 70 minutes competing her chores this week

Total of 70 minutes spent

42 minutes spent in sweeping . to find the number of minutes Amanda spent in washing the dishes , subtract 42 minutes from the total time spent

let x be the number of minutes spent washing the dishes

42+x=70

To solve for x , subtract 42 from both sides

42+x=70\\x= 70-42\\x=28

28 minutes spent in washing the dishes.
