Answer:

The probability is 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 2 nectarines in a total of 16 pieces of fruit in a basket, so the probability of random selected piece of fruit being a nectarine is the number of nectarines over the total number of pieces of fruit:

Probability = Number of nectarines / Total pieces = 2 / 16

To find the fraction in the simplest form, we divide the numerator and denominator by 2:

Probability = (2/2) / (16/2) = 1/8

A large farm has 75 acres of wheat and 62.5 acres of corn. The farm crew can harvest the wheat from 12 acres and the corn from 1
MAVERICK [17]
The answer for either field being harvested is 6.25 days (acres/(rate of harvest))
The answer is probably seven because, even though a day can be divided into parts, the fields are done the seventh not the sixth. (I'm assuming the problem calls for whole days)

Which equation is an equation of a circle with radius of 10 cm and center at (-3, 6)?
Musya8 [376]
The equation for a circle is 
(x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2
(-3,6)
-3 is h 
6 is k 

(x+3)^2 + (y-6)^2 = 10^2
10^2 = 100 

(x+3)^2 + (y-6)^2 =100
The answer is B!

The angles below are supplementary. What is the value of X?
zubka84 [21]
So you make your equation 4x+20+40=180.
Add like terms and get 4x+60=180.
Subtract 60 from both sides, get 4x=120.
Divide boths sides by 4, get your answer of x=30.
Hope this helps
