Answer:

11 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the weight of Rover is x pounds.

As Fifi weighs 12 pounds less than Rover, so,

The weight of Fifi = x-12...(i)

As Fido weighs 26 pounds more then Fifi, so,

The weight of Fido = (x-12)+26=x+14.

As the sum of their weights is 71, so,

x+(x-12)+(x+14)=71

x+x-12+x+14=71

3x+2=71

3x=71-2=69

x=69/3

x=23

From equation (i), the weight of Fifi = 23-12=11 pounds.

Hence, the weight of Fifi is 11 pounds.

10. The probability of buying pizza for dinner is 34% and the probability of buying
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

The probability of eating pizza given that a new car is bought is 0.952

Step-by-step explanation:

This kind of problem can be solved using Baye’s theorem of conditional probability.

Let A be the event of eating pizza( same as buying pizza)

while B is the event of buying a new car

P(A) = 34% = 0.34

P(B) = 15% = 15/100 = 0.15

P(B|A) = 42% = 0.42

P(B|A) = P(BnA)/P(A)

0.42 = P(BnA)/0.34

P(B n A) = 0.34 * 0.42 = 0.1428

Now, we want to calculate P(A|B)

Mathematically;

P(A|B = P(A n B)/P(B)

Kindly know that P(A n B) = P(B n A) = 0.1428

So P(A|B) = 0.1428/0.15

P(A|B) = 0.952

-3(4u-v)-5(-v+3u)<br> For 20 points
natita [175]

Answer:

−27u + 8v

Explanation:

−3(4u − v) − 5( − v + 3u)

[ Distribute ]

= (−3)(4u) + (−3)(−v) + (−5)(−v) + (−5)(3u)

= −12u + 3v + 5v + −15u

[ Combine Like Terms ]

= −12u + 3v + 5v + −15u

= (−12u + −15u) + (3v + 5v)

= −27u + 8v
