Answer:

7/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = expected outcome/total outcome

If the box contains 3 black pens, 7 blue pens, and 5 red pens, the total number of pens in the box is 3+7+5 = 15pens

Probability of pulling a red pen and replacing = 5/15 = 1/3

Probability of pulling a blue pen and replacing = 7/15

Probability of pulling a black pen and not replacing(using it) = 3/15

{Note that the total number of outcome used will still be 15 since the black pen was pulled out last even though it wasn't replaced.}

P(red, then blue, then black) = 1/3×7/15×3/15

= 63/225

= 7/25

There is a line whose y-intercept is 7 and whose slope is 8. What is its equation in slope-intercept form?
Annette [7]
Answer:
y = 8x + 7

Explanation:
The equation of the line in slope-intercept form has the following general formula:
y = mx + c
where:
m is the slope of the line = 8
c is the y-intercept = 7

Substitute with the givens in the above formula to get the slope of the line as follows:
y = mx + c
y = 8x + 7

Daniel [21]

Answer:

A) 1 : 4

B) 1 : 2

C) Base of M = 10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The ratio of the area of triangle M to triangle N

\frac {40}{160}= \frac{1}{4} = 1 : 4

B)

The ratio of the side lengths of triangle M to triangle N

\sqrt{ \frac {40}{160}} = \sqrt{\frac{1}{4}} \\\\={\frac{1}{2}} \\\\=1 : 2

C) Let the base of triangle M be b units.

\sqrt{ \frac {40}{160}} = \frac{b}{20}\\\\\frac{1}{2}=  \frac{b}{20}\\\\2b = 20\\\\b = \frac{20}{2} \\\\b = 10
