Answer:

1/8 ;

12 / 51

Step-by-step explanation:

To select any 5 numbers out of 40

Number of selection required / total numbers

Probability of winning = 5 /40 = 1/8

Total number of socks = 18

White, W = 8

Black, B = 6

Blue, C = 4

probability, without looking in the drawer, that you will first select and remove a black pair, then select either a blue or a white pair?

P(B) * [(P(C) + P(W)]

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

P(B) = 6 / 18 = 1/3

Without replacement :

P(W or C) = 8/17 + 4/17 = 12/17

Hence,

1/3 * 12/17

= 12 / 51

Ms. Johnson space has 48 carpet squares.

Mr. Wei space has 36 carpet squares.

Factorize these two numbers:

48=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3\\ \\36=2\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 3

All common factors are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

1. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 1 carpet, then Ms. Johnson space length is 48 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 36 carpets.

2. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 2 carpets, then Ms. Johnson space length is 24 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 18 carpets.

3. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 3 carpets, then Ms. Johnson space length is 16 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 12 carpets.

4. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 4 carpets, then Ms. Johnson space length is 12 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 9 carpets.

5. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 6 carpets, then Ms. Johnson space length is 8 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 6 carpets.

6. If Ms. Johnson space width and Mr. Wei space width is 12 carpets, then Ms. Johnson space length is 4 carpets and Mr. Wei space length is 3 carpets.

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

8 lb of flounder at $2.50/lb

4 lb of shrimp at $5.00/lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the pounds of shrimp

Let B be the pounds of flounder

Let C be the cost per pound of flounder

A + B = 12

A = 12 - B

        BC = 20

    A(2C) = 20

BC =  A(2C)

BC =  (12 - B)(2C)

BC =  24C - 2BC

3BC =  24C

  3B =  24

    B = 8 lb

A + 8 = 12

    A = 4 lb
