Answer:

15y

Step-by-step explanation:

first the 2 can cancel:

$\frac{2x}{2y} =16$

turns into:

$\frac{x}{y} =16$

now since we need to find x-y,

x=16y

16y-y=15y

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

$P=7.62*10^{-26}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Available plants:

44 red bulbs

44 purple bulbs

Generally the equation for Total possible arrangement is mathematically given by

$n= 88!/(44!*44!)$

$n=2.6*10^{25}$

Since

Its either

All 44 red bulbs and All 44 purple bulbs next to each other in one row

All 44 purple bulbs and All 44 Red bulbs next to each other in one row

Therefore

Probability is

$P=\frac{2}{2.6*10^{25}}$

$P=7.62*10^{-26}$
