Answer:

9:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Try to reduce the ratio further with the greatest common factor (GCF).

The GCF of 72 and 8 is 8

Divide both terms by the GCF, 8:

72 ÷ 8 = 9

8 ÷ 8 = 1

The ratio 72 : 8 can be reduced to lowest terms by dividing both terms by the GCF = 8 :

72 : 8 = 9 : 1

Therefore:

72 : 8 = 9 : 1

Amy has 12 pairs of white socks, 2 pairs of gray socks, and 6 pairs of black socks in her drawer. if she takes two pairs without

KIM [24]

HI!
First of all, there are total 12 + 2 + 6 = 20 pairs of socks.
Probability of getting a pair of white socks the first time is 12/20.
Probability of getting a pair of gray socks without replacement, if first one was white, is 2/19
Therefore the probability t<span>hat she will take a white pair and gray pair</span> without replacement is 6/95 (I multiplied the two probabilities)
Let me know if there are any other questions!

If a+b= -1 then the value of a^3+b^3 - 3ab= ?

Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

$(a + b)^{3} = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} + 3ab(a + b) \\ ( - 1)^{3} = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} + 3ab( - 1) \\ - 1 = {a}^{3} + {b}^{3} - 3ab\\ \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{{a}^{3} + {b}^{3} - 3ab = - 1}}$
