5/8 - 17/8
combine : 5-17 / 8
subtract : 5 - 7 = -12
-12/8
apply fraction rule ( -a/b = - a/b) : - 12/8
cancel common factor 4
answer : - 3/2
I hope this helped

Answer:
1.4
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability of selecting a red counter :
Number of red counter / total number of counters
5 / (5 + 3) = 5 /8 = 0.625
Probability of selecting a blue counter = 0.375
Let number of red counters :
0, 1 or 2
0 red counters :
Expected value = x * p(x)
0 + (0.625*1) + (0.390625 * 2)
0 + 0.625 + 0.78125 = 1.40625
Expected number of red counters = 1.4
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangles are all similar, so corresponding sides are proportional.
__
<h3>x</h3>
long side/short side = x/6 = 12/x
x² = 72 . . . . . . . multiply by 6x
x = 6√2 . . . . . . take the square root
__
<h3>y</h3>
hypotenuse/long side = y/12 = (12+6)/y
y² = 216 . . . . . multiply by 12y
y = 6√6 . . . . . take the square root
