Answer:

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Odds in favor of event = 2 : 9 or 2/9

Let,

These odds are out of 1.

The odds against the event would be

Odds against = 1 - 2/9

Odds against = \frac{9-2}{9}

Odds against = \frac{7}{9}

Therefore,

Odds against the events are 7/9.

Monday: 3 1/4 miles
Tuesday: (3 1/4)(2/3) = 2 1/6 miles
Wednesday: (2 1/6)(2) = 4 1/3 miles
Thursday: (4 1/3)(3/4) = 3 1/4 miles

Add them all up: 13 miles

She has not reached her goal, she needs to ride her bike 2 more miles to reach her goal.

Snezhnost [94]
To find how much lemonade the pitcher can hold, you will add the amounts that he drank and remained to get a total.  This total would be the starting amount.

8 oz + 8 oz + 24 oz = 40 ounces

The pitcher originally held 40 ounces of lemonade.

Points F and E on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two midfield players of a soccer team:
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

F is E reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of F and E are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.

" Points F and E on the coordinate grid below show the positions of two midfield players of a soccer team:

Coordinate grid shown from negative 4 to positive 4 on x-axis and negative 4 to positive 4 on y-axis. From the origin, point E is 1.5 units to the left and 3 units up. From the origin, point F is 1.5 units to the right and 3 units up.

Which statement best describes the relationship between the positions of the two midfield players? (1 point)

Based on the coordinate of E;

The value on the x axis is -1.5 since the point is 1.5unitsTO THE LEFT from the origin(-ve x-axis acts towards the left in space). The value on the y-axis will be +3units since its 3units UP(+ve y axis acts upward).

The E coordinates will therefore be (-1.5, 3)

Similarly, for coordinate F:

If from the origin, point F is 1.5 units TO THE RIGHT, then the x-axis will be +1.5 (x-axis is positive towards the right) and +3 units up(+ve y axis acts upward).

The F coordinate will therefore be;

(1.5, 3).

From both coordinates, it can be seen that both x axis are of the same value but different signs. This means that the points E and F will act in the opposite side of the y-axis and a reflector of each other.

Based on the explanation above, it can be concluded that "F is E reflected across the y-axis; only the signs of the x-coordinates of F and E are different."

What property allows you to conclude that 5x+7x=12x
Andrei [34K]
Since both of the numbers have a variable which is x ready to be multiplied, there is no expression leading to the variable therefore you will add normally but you will need to put the missing variable which needs to be multiplied. So overall you can just add and once you get your variable you can be abe to multiply and get your final answer.

Hope this helps
