Answer:

Hence the required probability is, 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:  

At the shelter, he likes :  

a male coolie, a female coolie, a male boxer, a female boxer, a male beagle, a female beagle, a male Labrador, and a female Labrador.  

Let, A denote the event of selecting a male coolie and B denote the event of selecting a male Labrador.  

P(A) = 1/8 = P(B)  

Here the probability of selecting a puppy except A & B is,  

P(AUB)c = 1 - P(AUB) = 1 - { P(A) + P(B) } = 1 - 1/8 - 1/8 = 3/4

The team ran
juin [17]

The team ran 2 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1; The track is \frac{3}{4} miles long and the team ran 2\frac{2}{3} laps on it. To calculate the distance run we multiply the number of laps ran with the distance on each lap.

Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap.

Step 2; We convert 2\frac{2}{3} from a mixed fraction into an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number with the denominator of the fraction and add with it the numerator of the same fraction whereas the denominator remains unchanged. To convert the fraction 2\frac{2}{3} = ((2 × 3) + 2) / 3 = \frac{8}{3}.

Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap = \frac{8}{3} × \frac{3}{4} = \frac{8}{4} = 2 miles.

1. One week Carlos bought 3 bags of Tabitha Tidbits and 4 bags of Figaro Flakes for $43.00. The next week he bought 3 bags of Ta
d1i1m1o1n [39]
Tabitha Tidbits costs $7 per bag, and Figaro Flakes is $5.50 per bag.
You need to set up a system of equations. Use "x" for Tabitha Tidbits and "y" for Figaro Flakes, and let the total cost of each trip equal c. Using the equation ax+by=c, substitute the cost of each trip in for c, and the number of bags for each food for a and b respectively. The two equations will be:
3x+4y=43
3x+6y=54
Isolate x in the first equation and you will get:
x=(43-4y)/3
Substitute the above equation for x into the other equation:
3*((43-4y)/3)+6y=54
Isolate y in this equation, and you will get 11/2, which is 5.5
So the cost of one bag of Figaro Flakes is $5.50
Now substitute this into the equation where you isolated x:
(43-4(5.5))/3
You will get x=7, so a bag of Tabitha Tidbits is $7
