Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
(X-8)/7=2
X-8=14
X=22
14 trout out of 50 total fish. The total amount of fish in the lake is 7500. Let’s make this into a proportion.
14/50=x/7500
x represents how much trout is in the lake, we don’t know yet, but we’ll find out.
First, cross multiply.
14*7500=105000
50*x=50x
Now let’s turn this into an equation.
50x=105000
Divide both sides by 50
50x/50=x
105000/50=2100
x=2100
Out of the 7500 fish in the lake, 2100 were trouts.

Answer:
Choice A
1/17; no, they are dependent events
============================================
Explanation:
There are 13 spades and 52 cards total. So 13/52 = 1/4 is the probability of drawing one spade
If we do not replace the card we pull out, then the probability of another spade is 12/51 since there are 12 spades left out of 51 total.
Multiply the fractions 1/4 and 12/51 to get
(1/4)*(12/51) = (1*12)/(4*51) = 12/204 = 1/17
The two events are not independent because the second event (pulling out a second spade) depends entirely on what happens in the first event (pulling out a first spade). The fact that the probability is altered indicates we have dependent events.
