Answer:

7 / 69

Step-by-step explanation:

Rabbit = 8

Mice = 12

Snake = 4

Total = (8 + 12 + 4) = 24

If each animal has equal probability of being caught ;

Probability of catching a rabbit ;

Number of rabbits / total number of animals

P(catching 1 rabbit) = 8 / 24 = 1/3

P(catching 2nd rabbit) :

Number of rabbits left = 8 - 1 = 7

Total number of rabbits = 24 - 1 = 23

Hence, P(catching 2nd rabbit) = 7 /23

Probability of catching two rabbits :

1 /3 * 7/ 23 = 7 / 69

elena-s [515]

Answer:

300 times bigger.

Step-by-step explanation:

That would be (1.8 * 10^27 ) / (6 * 10^24)

= 0.3 * (10^27/10^24)

= 0.3 * 10^3

= 3 * 10^2

Two pieces of equipment were purchased for a total of $4000. If one piece cost $850 more than
ruslelena [56]

The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Price of one equipment = x

Price of other equipment = y

According to given statement;

x+y=4000   Eqn 1

x = y+850    Eqn 2

Putting Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

(y+850)+y=4000\\y+850+y=4000\\2y=4000-850\\2y=3150

Dividing both sides by 2;

\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{3150}{2}\\y=1575

Putting y=1575 in Eqn 2;

x=1575+850\\x=2425

The price of less expensive equipment is $1575.
