Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

the bone and the steak weigh = 1 5/8 pounds

The bone weighs 7/8

The meat weighs = 15/8 - 7/8

Converting 1 5/8 to an improper fraction gives 13/8

13/8 - 7/8 = 6/8 = 3/4

The line with equation x-3y-27=0 meets the parabola y²=4x at two points. Find their coordinates
lesantik [10]
x-3y-27=0\\
y^2=4x\\\\
x-3y-27=0\\
x=\frac{y^2}{4}\\\\
\frac{y^2}{4}-3y-27=0\\
y^2-12y-108=0\\
y^2-12y+36-144=0\\
(y-6)^2=144\\
y-6=-12 \vee y-6=12\\
y=-6 \vee y=18\\\\
x=\frac{(-6)^2}{4} \vee x=\frac{18^2}{4}\\
x=\frac{36}{4} \vee x=\frac{324}{4}\\
x=9 \vee x=81\\\\
\boxed{(9,-6),(81,18)}

A single die is rolled twice find the probability of rolling an even number the first time and a number greater than 5 the secon
Troyanec [42]
The probability of rolling of rolling an even number would be 3/6 because there are three even numbers out of six. If this were rolled twice, it'd be double (it'd become 6/12) 
then the probability of rolling a number greater than five on the second turn would be 1/6 because only one number is greater than five on a die, which is six. Again, if it were rolled twice, it'd be double (and become 2/12)
