Well this is were you would need to multiply the amount of pounds of rice they did and then divide the amount of months they give you!
The probability is 56/100 or 56%. Because they only got 44% of their previous throws, the probability that they'll miss the next one is 56%.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to write 8 + x, but since it's half of that we write it as a fraction with a 2 on the bottom to halve it.
Switch y=2x+7 to 2x-y=-7 then multiply that equation by 2 to cancel out the y's. that ends up as 4x-2y=-14 which then you get x=-24. then you substitute x into one of the original equations y= 2(-24)+7 which equals y=-41
X is equal to -11/6 or -1.8333333333..................................
