Spencer buys a bag of 400 lollipops. Each lollipop has one of three flavors: cherry, watermelon, or grape. Spencer picks 15 loll

ipops at
random from the bag. The results of the flavors he chooses are listed below.
• 9 cherry
• 3 watermelon
• 3 grape
Based on these results, how many of the 400 lollipops should Spencer expect to be cherry flavored?

Answer:

240 lollipops

Step-by-step explanation:

Cherry probability=9/15=3/5=0.6=60%.

\frac{3}{5} =\frac{x}{400}

5x=1200

x=240

240 of the lollipops should be cherry-flavored.

When two probabilities
Ivenika [448]

Answer: True  

Step-by-step explanation: Because if we have two independent events and want to know the probability of their happening at the same time, we multiply the two probabilities together.  "Two events happening at the same time" is a compound event.  We more often see this as "P(xy)," the probability of x AND y.

Use the drop-down menus to complete the statements below to answer this question: Can you determine whether a system of linear e
Oksanka [162]
  • The coordinates of a point satisfies the equation of a line if the point lies on the line
  • If a single point satisfies the equations of two lines, the point is on both lines, so the lines will intersect at that point.
  • This means that each point where the two lines touch is a solution to the system of equations
  • This means that if you substitute the x and y values of the point for x and y in the equations, both equations will be true

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

You haven't given any option. However, I have tried to complete this question according to what we know about system of linear equations. Suppose you have the following system of two linear equations in two variables:

(1) \ y=3+2x \\ \\ (2) \ y=x

The fist equation is the blue one and the second equation is the red one. Both have been plotted in the first figure below. As you can see, (-3, -3) is the point of intersection and lies on both lines. So this point is a solution of the system of equation and we can also say that it touches both lines. On the other hand, if you substitute the x and y values of the point for x and y in the equations, both equations will be true, that is:

-3=3+2(-2) \therefore -3=-3 \ True! \\ \\ (2) \ -3=-3 \ True!

Also, you can have a system with infinitely many solutions as the following:

(1) \ y+2x=4\\ \\ (2) \ 2y+4x=8

Here, every point that is solution of the first equation is solution of the second one. That is because both equations are basically the same. If we divide eq (2) by 2, then we get eq (1).

This just wants the derivative which you can solve for.
You can do this using a negative expononet or using ...the rational rule forget its name*.... you shoudl get 9000/(t+12)^2
