put the varible on the shaded half
129 divided by 5 is equal to 25 with a remainder of 4.
This means that she will need a total of 26 boxes, but only 25 of them will have 5 cupcakes in them. The last one will have 4 cupcakes.
3px = 2q(r-5x)
distribute
2qr - 10qx
3px = 2qr - 10qx
To solve for x
add 10qx to both sides
3px + 10qx = 2qr
factor out x
x(3p+10q) = 2qr
divide both sides by 3p+10q to isolate x
x = 2qr / <span>(3p+10q)
Hope this helps :)</span>
5/0 UNDEFINED... The answer is a vertical line.
Total students = 15+21=36, so the probability of choosing a girl is 21/36, which reduces to 7/12.
Total freshmen = 12+15=27, so the probability of choosing a freshman is 27/36, which reduces to 3/4.
