(x+5) (x+3) if i am correct.. I dunno for sure
The answer is B. It is shifted up by 6*1.5-2-2 with is 9-2-2=5.
There are 9 long distance male runners and 5 long distance female runners. This makes a total of 9+5 = 14 long distance runners.
Out of this total of 14 long distance runners, there are 9 males. So the probability as a fraction is 9/14
If you need the answer in decimal form, then use a calculator to get 9/14 = 0.642857 which is approximate.
Given:
October: 8 3/8 inches
September : 60% less rain fell than in October.
This means that only 40% rain fell in September based on the amount of rain that fell in October.
8 3/8 ⇒ (8*8)+3/8 = 67/8
40% is 4/10
67/8 * 4/10 = 268/80 = 3 28/80 or 3 7/20 or 3.35
28 ÷ 2 = 14
80 ÷ 2 = 40
14 ÷ 2 = 7
40 ÷ 2 = 20
In September 3 7/20 inches or 3.35 inches of rain fell.
