There are 5 cards less than nine that are prime, so there is a 5/9 chance of picking the first one prime. The second one would be 4/8 or 1/2, because you have removed a card from the deck. You multiply them together to get: 5/18.
Hope this helps!
It is B.
You see that the line segment crosses the y-axis at 1? That is known as the y intercept.
Remember y = mx + b?
Well in this graph, b = 1
Therefore it is B

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the weights of the large and small boxes, respectively. The problem statement gives rise to the system of equations ...
x + y = 85 . . . . . combined weight of a large and small box
70x +50y = 5350 . . . . combined weight of 70 large and 50 small boxes
We can subtract 50 times the first equation from the second to find the weight of a large box.
(70x +50y) -50(x +y) = (5350) -50(85)
20x = 1100 . . . . simplify
x = 55 . . . . . . . divide by 20
Using this in the first equation, we can find the weight of a small box.
55 +y = 85
y = 30 . . . . . . . subtract 55
A large box weighs 55 pounds; a small box weighs 30 pounds.
