Answer:

7/54

Step-by-step explanation:

A hockey bag contains 5 red jerseys, 6 blue jerseys and 7 white jerseys.

Let the total number of jerseys =

5 red jerseys + 6 blue jerseys 7 white jerseys.

= 18

P(White) = 7/18

P(Blue) = 6/18

Hence, the probability that Jack picks a white then a blue jersey if he puts the first one back.

This is probability with replacement, hence:

7/18 × 6/18

= 7/18 × 1/3

= 7/54

73590 rounded to the nearest thousand

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Okay, so here is a small lesson on rounding. When you round you MUST know the place value of each number. Ones, tens, hundreds, thousands, millions.
So, when we look at this number what do we have in the ones place --there is a 0 -- in the tens place we have a 9 and in the the thousands place we have 5. to round this number look at the tens place. if the number is greater than 5 you round 73590 to 73600, if it is 4 and lower it stays the same and the numbers behind change to zero--> like so 73500. But for this problem it would round up to 73600.

The graph shows how the mass of copper

Alex777 [14]

Answer: 8 1/4g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the graph :

The rate of change in the mass of copper with respect to volume :

To obtain this, we find the slope or gradient of the graph:

Gradient = Δy / Δx = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Drawing a right angled triangle on the anybpart of the line of best fit:

y2 = 40 ; x2 = 4.75 ; y1 = 16 ; x1 = 2

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (40 -16) / (4.75 - 2)

= 24 / 2.75

= 2400/275

= 8.727 g/cm^3

Due to unit and graph scale,, the slope is closest to 8 1/4g/cm³

Difference between 1 8/10 and 2 2/5

Eva8 [605]

The first step to solving this is converting these mixed numbers into improper fractions. You would do that by multiplying the denominator by the whole number and adding the numerator to that number; this number replaces the numerator. It would look something like this:

1 8/10 --> 18/10
2 2/5 --> 12/5

Now, to subtract the second fraction from the first one, the denominators of both fractions must be the same. We can make them the same by multiplying the second fraction by 2:

12/5 * 2/2 = 24/10

Now we can set up the equation as:

18/10 - 24/10 = -6/10 --> -3/5

The answer is negative 3/5.

I hope this helps.

In the United States, there are 59 different species of mammals that are endangered,

jolli1 [7]

Given Information:

Number of endangered mammal species = 59

Number of endangered bird species = 75

Number of endangered fish species = 68

Required Information:

Probability of either a mammal or a fish = ?

Answer:

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202 = 0.6287 = 62.87%

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to randomly select one animal and find out the probability of either a mammal or a fish.

The total number of endangered species of animals is given by

Total animals = mammal species + bird species + fish species

Total animals = 59 + 75 + 68 = 202

The probability of selecting a endangered mammal is

P(mammal) = no. of endangered mammal/total no. of endangered animals

P(mammal) = 59/202

The probability of selecting a endangered fish is

P(fish) = no. of endangered fish/total no. of endangered animals

P(fish) = 68/202

Finally, the probability of selecting either a mammal or a fish is

P(mammal or fish) = 59/202 + 68/202

P(mammal or fish) = 127/202

P(mammal or fish) = 0.6287

P(mammal or fish) = 62.87%
