Answer:
1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Mrs. Lincoln has 15 girls and 10 boys in her homeroom. She randomly selects two students. The total number of students is 25.
The probability of choosing one girl is:
15 / 25 = 3 / 5
Now, 24 students are left.
The probability of choosing one boy is:
10 / 24 = 5 / 12
Therefore, the probability of choosing one girl and one boy is:
3 / 5 * 5 / 12
= 3 / 12
= 1/4

When you multiply each side of an equation by the same number,
you don't change the equation or its solution. If you want to get rid
of the decimals, you could multiply each side by 10. Then the
equation is
5x - 1 = -29
You should be able to solve that without help.
But I'm about to take your points, so here's
how to solve that equation:
</span><span><span>5x - 1 = -29
Add 1 to each side: 5x = -28
Divide each side by 5 : x = -28 / 5
Simplify the solution: x = -5 and 4/5 .
Again ... this is the same solution as the original equation
if we hadn't gotten rid of the decimals.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
looking at the graph,
when x = 3, y = -10
-10 = 2(3)^2 + 3b + 8
-10 = 18 + 3b + 8
-10 = 26 + 3b
3b = -36
b = -36/3
b = -12
