Answer:

Option C, 1/35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Proportion of town that has blue eyes = 1/5 = 0.2

Proportion of town that has brown eyes = 1/7

The probability of choosing either a blue eye or a brown eye person is

Probability of blue eye individual * Probability of brown eye individual

= 1/5 * 1/7 = 1/35

Hence, option C is correct

I need to write an even number between 7 and 16 draw a picture an them write a sentence to explain why it is an even number
serious [3.7K]
An even  number is a number that is divisible by 2.
This means that dividing this number by 2 yields no remainder (the remainder is zero).

The even numbers between 7 and 16 are:
8 as 8/2 = 4 and remainder is zero
10 as 10/2 = 5 and remainder is zero
12 as 12/2 = 6 and remainder is zero
14 as 14/2 = 7 and remainder is zero

Solve the inequality. Check your solutions.
Komok [63]
The inequality is 

7- \frac{2}{b}\ \textless \ \frac{5}{b}

write 7 as 7b/b to have all the expressions in common denominator:

\frac{7b}{b} - \frac{2}{b}\ \textless \ \frac{5}{b}

\frac{7b-2}{b} \ \textless \ \frac{5}{b}

\frac{7b-2}{b}- \frac{5}{b}\ \textless \ 0

\frac{7b-2-5}{b}\ \textless \ 0

\frac{7b-7}{b}\ \textless \ 0

\frac{7(b-1)}{b}\ \textless \ 0

here b=1 is a root and b=0 is not in the domain of the expression, but it still has an effect in the sign of the expression.

the sign table of \frac{7(b-1)}{b} is :

+++++++[0] --------[1] +++++

this means that for values of b to the left of 0 and to the right of 1, the expression is positive, and for values of b in (0, 1), the expression is negative.

that is \frac{7(b-1)}{b}\ \textless \ 0 for b∈(0, 1)

Answer: (0, 1)
