Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the chance/probability that Katy wins we need to first find the probability of her winning a single coin toss and then multiply it twice. This is because Katy has 1 win already and needs two more win the entire game. Since a coin toss only has 2 options and only 1 of those outcomes will cause Katy to win, then this means that the probability of Katy winning is 1/2 or 50%. Now we can multiply this probability twice to get the probability of Katy winning the entire game

1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4 or 25%

1. Alexis went shopping for school supplies with $80 in his bank account. He bought a bunch of binders for $23, pens and pencils
masha68 [24]

Answer: So alexis had $80 And he bought a bunch of binders for $23 So If you do the math you will get: $57 But then he buys pens and pencils for $16 So:

$57 - $16 = $41 And then he buys a new backpack for $37. So : $41 - $37 = $4

Factor the expression 20k + 50
Yuliya22 [10]
Answer is 10(2k+5)

-----------------------------------

Work Shown:

20k+50 = 10*2k + 10*5
20k+50 = 10(2k+5)

Note how we can distribute the 10 back in to check our work
10(2k+5) = 10(2k)+10(5) = 20k+50
so that confirms we have the right answer

Another thing to notice is that 10 is the largest factor that we can pull out of 20k and 50. The value 10 is the GCF (greatest common factor) of 20 and 50.

Find the values of the apple, banana and lollypop below.<br><br> Pls help
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

a= Apple = 3

b= Banana =5

v= Lollypop=1

Step-by-step explanation:

36 is divided into 2 giving us 18

Let apple=a

Banana=b

Lollypop=c

In the first half

An apple + 3 bananas=18

a+3b=18 (1)

Second half is further divided into 2

That is,

18÷2=9

First half of the second half

3apples=9

3a=9 (2)

Second half of the second half

1 apple + 1 banana + 1 lollypop=9

a+b+c=9 (3)

a+3b=18 (1)

3a=9 (2)

a+b+c=9 (3)

From (2)

3a=9

Divide both sides by 3

a=9/3

a=3

Substitute a=3 into 1

a+3b=18

3+3b=18

3b=18-3

3b=15

Divide both sides by 3

b=15/3

=5

b=5

Substitute the value of a and b into (3)

a+b+c=9

3+5+c=9

8+c=9

c=9-8

c=1

Therefore,

a= Apple = 3

b= Banana =5

v= Lollypop=1
