The problem above is an example of conditional probability. From the name itself, it gives you a condition that a certain event has already happen, or is sure to happen. In this case, the probability would be 100% or 1. The condition says that the probability is 100% if the packages are more than 3. Since, 4 is considered to be more than 3, then the probability is 100%.

Show that 5 2/3 - 3 4/5 = 1 13/15
topjm [15]

Answer:

True both are 28/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

5 + 2/3 - (3 + 4/5)

Put 3 + 4/5 over the common denominator 5. 3 + 4/5 = (5×3)/5 + 4/5:

5 + 2/3 - (5×3)/5 + 4/5

5×3 = 15:

5 + 2/3 - (15/5 + 4/5)

15/5 + 4/5 = (15 + 4)/5:

5 + 2/3 - (15 + 4)/5

15 + 4 = 19:

5 + 2/3 - 19/5

Put 5 + 2/3 - 19/5 over the common denominator 15. 5 + 2/3 - 19/5 = (15×5)/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15:

(15×5)/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15

15×5 = 75:

75/15 + (5×2)/15 + (3 (-19))/15

5×2 = 10:

75/15 + 10/15 + (3 (-19))/15

3 (-19) = -57:

75/15 + 10/15 + (-57)/15

75/15 + 10/15 - 57/15 = (75 + 10 - 57)/15:

(75 + 10 - 57)/15

Answer: 28/15

______________________________________

Simplify the following:

1 + 13/15

Put 1 + 13/15 over the common denominator 15. 1 + 13/15 = 15/15 + 13/15:

15/15 + 13/15

15/15 + 13/15 = (15 + 13)/15:

(15 + 13)/15

| 1 | 5

+ | 1 | 3

| 2 | 8:

Nancy and Kevin collect coins. Nancy has x coins. Kevin has 9 coins fewer than five times the number of coins Nancy has. Write a
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

x + (5x-9)

Step-by-step explanation:

x stands for the number of coins Nancy has

Kevin has 9 less than 5 times what Nancy has, so his part of the expression is 5x-9

To find the total number of coins they have, you have to add Nancy's number of coins x plus Kevin's number of coins 5x-9

x + (5x-9)

But you have to put parentheses around Kevin's 5x-9 so that part of the expression is calculated first, as per order of operations
