Answer:

x = $2.56

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you do the inverse of both operations, which is multiplication and subtraction. The first inverse would be addition, so 2.81 + 2.31 = 5.12. Then, the second inverse would be division, so 5.12 divided by 2 = 2.56. So therefore, x = $2.56 is the correct answer for the price in September 2006.

Rachel has tossed a fair coin ten times. It landed heads up every time. Is this LIKELY?<br> Explain
serious [3.7K]

Answer: No

Step-by-step explanation:

Rachael getting a head every time she tosses a coin ten times is unlikely.

Theoretically, there will be some head and tails during the toss of the coin. Theoretically, there should be 5 heads after ten tosses of the coin.

To get exactly 10 heads during the tosses of coin, Rachel would need a larger trial to get a more accurate data.

One of my cats, Apollo, drives a cat car. He used 6/8 of a tank of gas to visit his friends for the weekend, and another 1 half
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas

Step-by-step explanation:

Visit to friend = 6/8 of a tank of gas

Commute to work = 1/2 of a tank of gas

Weekend trip = 1/4 of a tank of gas

Total gas used = Visit to friend + Commute to work + Weekend trip

= 6/8 + 1/2 + 1/4

= 6+4+2/8

= 12/8

= 3/2

Total gas used = 3/2 of a tank of gas
