Answer:
10x² - 12
Step-by-step explanation:
4x² - 7 + 6x² - 5 (combine like terms)
10x² - 12
I would use grams, because in my country watermelons are small, but if they were huge I would use kilograms
Since there are equal numbers of pieces, the chances of Julio getting a red on the first pull is 12/24 or 1/2 (reduced)
However on the second pull there are only 11 reds (Julio pulled one out) out of 23 remaining pieces so the chances of pulling the second red are 11/23
Now multiply those possibilities:
1/2 x 11/23 and you will get 11/46 which is the probability of pulling two reds in a row. 11/46 is the answer.
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
So, we know that this process happened 3 times in total. The original amount of kids we can call x, so the next wave filled in the gaps inbetween, so we call that amount x-1, the next wave would be (x+x-1)-1 or 2x-2, and the last would be 4x-4
adding this all up we get 8x-7=49, so 8x = 56 or x = 7
