Answer:
5/14
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of cards is 8
There are 5 blue cards
P(1st card is blue) = blue/total = 5/8
We take away a blue card
The total number of cards is 7
There are 4 blue cards
P(2nd card is blue) = blue/total = 4/7
The probability of blue blue is P(blue blue ) =
P(1st card is blue)*P(2nd card is blue) =
5/8* 4/7
20/56
We can divide the top and bottom by 4
5/14
Okay so lets call Leah "L" and her cousin "C". We know that L+C=36 ... we also know that Leah is twice her cousins age. Therefore, L=2 times C, or L=2C. This is because Leah's age is equivalent to twice as much as her cousin's.
Now that you know that L=2C, you can plug this back into the equation. This should make it so that's there's only one variable now!
L+C=36
(2C)+C=36 ... here we subbed in L=2C
3C=36 ... we add up the C's
C=12 ... we isolate for C by dividing both sides by 3
So her cousin's age is 12 years old. Leah's age is twice that. Thus, she's 24. If you add the two up: 12+24, you indeed get 36. Hope that helps :))
Answer:
The no. of variations in sign is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Variation in sign occurs when every single time a negative product is produced by a pair of consecutive terms.
Therefore, the determination of the number of changes in sign in the given sequence is must.
Therefore, we take the product of the pair of consecutive terms as:
= - 3, variation in sign
= - 6, variation in sign
= 10, no sign variation
= - 20, variation in sign
= 24, no sign variation
Answer:
D.) 7:3
Step-by-step explanation:
First, find the LCM of the numbers, which is 8.
Then divide each number by 8
56÷8=7 24÷8= 3
Then, put them in a ratio
7:3
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
subtract 12 on both sides and you get
x=27-12
x=15
