Answer:

24.24%

Step-by-step explanation:

In other words we need to find the probability of getting one blue counter and another non-blue counter in the two picks. Based on the stats provided, there are a total of 12 counters (6 + 4 + 2), out of which only 4 are blue. This means that the probability for the first counter chosen being blue is 4/12

Since we do not replace the counter, we now have a total of 11 counters. Since the second counter cannot be blue, then we have 8 possible choices. This means that the probability of the second counter not being blue is 8/11. Now we need to multiply these two probabilities together to calculate the probability of choosing only one blue counter and one non-blue counter in two picks.

\frac{4}{12} * \frac{8}{11} =   \frac{32}{132} or 0.2424 or 24.24%

Rhonda took $20 with her to spend on popcorn and candy for herself and her friends at the movie theater. The price for each bag
MrRa [10]

The linear equation that represents the scenario is 5x + 2.5y = 20

<h3>How to determine the equation?</h3>

The given parameters are:

  • Popcorn = $5 per bag
  • Candy = $2.5 per bag i.e. half the price of pop corn

Let x represents popcorn and y represents candy.

So, we have:

5x + 2.5y = 20

The intercepts in this case are the maximum number of candy and popcorn Rhonda can buy

(2x +1) -7 (-6x+9) what is the answer if using the Distributive Property?
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property:  a(b +c) = a*b + a*c

(2x + 1) - 7(-6x + 9) = (2x + 1) + (-7)*(-6x) + (-7)*9

                              = 2x + 1 + 42x - 63  {Combine like terms}

                              = 2x + 42x + 1 - 63

                              = 44x - 62
