The probability that both grab oranges would be = 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
A bowl contains,
Apples = a = 5
Oranges = o = 2
bananas = b = 2
Total fruits in bowl = x = a + o + b = 5 + 2 + 2 = 9
Now, Christian and Aaron come home from school and randomly grab one fruit each.
The probability of first selecting orange would be = 
Now, the oranges left would be 2 - 1 = 1
and total fruits would be = 9 - 1 = 8
Hence, the probability of selecting second orange would be = 
Therefore, the probability that both grab oranges would be = 
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Can you rephrase the question.
The truck can cover 145 miles in 2.5 hours, so the speed of the truck is
145÷2.5=58 miles per hour
the car's speed is 1.5 times faster: 58×1.5=87 miles per hour
suppose in x hours they will meet:
distance covered by truck in x hour: 58x
distance covered by car in x hour: 87x
total distance: 145 miles
58x+87x=145
x=1
The perimeter of the carpet is determined by its dimensions so the dimensions of the room are irrelevant to the question.
P=2(x+y) where x and y are the dimensions, here x and y equal 9 and 12 ft so
P=2(9+12)
P=2(21)
P=42 ft
