Answer:

B) ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 ) - 19

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the given information

Alena - has a total of 4 packs of gum, with 6 pieces each

          - so she has a total of  4 * 6 = 24

Hugh - has a total of 3 packs of gum, with 5 pieces each

         - so he has a total of 3 * 5 = 15

Add the two of them up to find the total amount of gum they have

Alena + Hugh

= ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 )

They have 19 pieces left

So the total amount they have, minus 19 will yield the amount they chewed.

Hence:

Alena + Hugh -19

= ( 4 * 6 ) + ( 3 * 5 ) - 19

That is option B

7. A battery manufacturer makes batteries that have a failure rate of .015. That is, 15 out of each 1,000 batteries are defectiv
azamat
The answer to this probability question is .86 or 86%. The probability that a batch of 10,000 batteries will contain at least 175 defective batteries is  86 percent. I calculated the failure rate of 10,000 batteries (10k*.015) and yielded 150, meaning there will be 150 batteries that will be defective in a set of 10,000. Then i divided 150 by 175 to get the probability.
