There are two choices for each child: overweight (o) or underweight (u). So if the first child is o the next can be o or u. If the first is u the second can be o or u. This gives four possibilities. Here the first child is the letter noted first and the second is the one listed second:
OO
OU
UO
UU
There are 4 outcomes and if each is equally likely then the probability of each is 1/4. Thus the probability of UU is 1/4
The probability of one underweight and one over weight is 1/2 because in two of the outcomes listed above there is one O and one U (namely OU and UO). Since there are 4 outcomes the probability is 2/4 = 1/2
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have two points, we can use the slope formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (22-21)/(6-4)
= 1/2
K = s + 4
k + s = 26
s + 4 = 26
Subtract 4 from both sides of the equation.
s = 22

Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Because if you have 2 apples and add 2 apples to that, you'll have a total of 4.

Find all product of real values that satisfy the equation
Cross multiply:
Subtract 7 from both sides
Reorder
Multiply through by -1
The above represents a quadratic equation and as such could take either of the following conditions.
(1) No real roots:
This possibility does not apply in this case as such, would not be considered.
(2) One real root
This is true if
For a quadratic equation
By comparison with
Substitute these values in
Add 56 to both sides
Divide through by 4
Take square roots
Hence, the possible values of r are:
or 
and the product is:
