Answer:

x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

x+12=8

x=8-12

Andre did not multiple both by four to get the exact whole number. He also, didnt subtract 12 which is not possible due to it being multiplied by 1/4.

Miss Berk has 8 pairs of pajama pants and 3 pairs of slippers. Three pairs of the pajama pants are Harry Potter themed and one p

shusha [124]

The probability that both items will be Harry Potter themed is 1/8.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Total Number of pajama pants n(P) =8

Total number of slippers n(S)= 3

Number of Harry Potter themed Pajama pants n(H.P)=3

Number of Harry Potter themed slippers n(H.S)=1

We have to determine the probability of selecting pants and slippers that are both Harry Potter themed.

If two events A and B are independent, then the probability of A and B is given by

P(A and B)=P(A)*P(B)

Here the events selecting Harry potter themed pants and selecting harry Potter themed slippers are independent.

$P(Harry\ Potter\ pants)=\frac{n(H.P)}{n(P)}$

$=\frac{3}{8}$

$P(Harry\ Potter\ slippers)=\frac{n(H.S)}{n(S)} \\ =1/3$

$P(Harry\ Potter\ pants\ and\ Harry\ Potter\ slippers)=P(Harry Potter pants)\times P(Harry potter slippers)$

$=\frac{3}{8}\times \frac{1}{3} =\frac{1}{8}$

Hence probability of selecting Harry potter themed pants and Harry potter themed slippers is 1/8
