Answer:
8.25 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
3 2/3 times 2 1/4 equals 8.25
A. 25 = (.5 * 22) + (2 * x)
B. 25 = (.5 * 22) + (2 * x)
25 = 11 + 2x
14 = 2x
7 = x
C. 7
<span>3 of the 20 toothbrushes are defective, so the initial probability of selecting a defective toothbrush on the first try is 3/20. After that, there will be 2 defective toothbrushes in the remaining 19, so the probability of selecting one of those on the 2nd try will be 2/19. To get the probability of those two events happening sequentially, we multiply the two probabilities. Thus (3/20)*(2/19) = 6/380 = 0.0157, or about 1.6%.</span>
