Answer:

2 + 2 = 4 total earrings in the box.

If you put the earring back into the box before taking out the second, it would be 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4, 25%.

Answer:

1/6 or 16.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 4 earrings in the box: 2 pairs of earrings + 2 pairs of earrings.

If you return the first earring to the box before removing the second, the answer is 1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4, or 25%.

If you remove the first earring from the package, the response is 1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6, or 16.7%.

Find the distance between the two points.
Ksenya-84 [330]

Hey there!

Distance formula:

d = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})+(y_{2}-y_{1}) }

Plug in variables:

d = \sqrt{(0-(-6))+(0-(-7))}

Simplify.

d = \sqrt{6+7}

d = \sqrt{13}

The distance between the two points is \sqrt{13}  units.

Hope this helps!

Lionel walks 3/5 mile in 1/3 of a day. Cristiano walks 5/8 mile in 2/6 of a day.
Scrat [10]

Answer:

<h3>             Cristiano walked farther</h3><h3> In 1 day:   Lionel walked  1.8 mile</h3><h3>                  Cristiano walked 1.875 mile</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

2/6 = 1/3  so we just need to know what is more 3/5 or 5/8

3/5 = (3•8)/(5•8) = 24/40

5/8 = (5•5)/(8•5) = 25/40

25 > 24  so 5/8 > 3/5

so <u>Cristiano walked farther</u>

They walk for 1/3 of a day so in a whole day they walk three times the distance

3/5 • 3 = 9/5 = 1 4/5 = 1.8 mile

5/8 • 3 = 15/8 = 1 7/8 = 1.875 mile
