Answer:

Answer as a fraction: 4/15

Answer as a decimal: 0.267

The decimal version is approximate rounded to three decimal places.

Step-by-step explanation:

6 apples, 4 peaches

6+4 = 10 pieces of fruit total

The probability of picking an apple is 6/10 = 3/5

After you pick and eat the apple, there are 10-1 = 9 pieces of fruit left. Also, the probability of picking a peach is 4/9, as there are 4 peaches out of 9 fruit left over.

Multiply out 3/5 and 4/9 to get (3/5)*(4/9) = (3*4)/(5*9) = 12/45 = 4/15

Using a calculator, 4/15 = 0.267 approximately.

Johnathan ran 5 days this week. The most he ran in one day was 3.5 miles. Write an inequality that shows the distance johnathan
Mekhanik [1.2K]

<em><u>An inequality that shows the distance Johnathan could of ran any day this week is:</u></em>

x\leq 3.5

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the distance Johnathan can run any day of this week

Given that,

Johnathan ran 5 days this week. The most he ran in one day was 3.5 miles

Therefore,

Number of days ran = 5

The most he ran in 1 day = 3.5 miles

Thus, the maximum distance he ran in a week is given as:

distance = 5 \times 3.5 = 17.5

The maximum distance he ran in a week is 17.5 miles

If we let x be the distance he can run any day of this week then, we get a inequality as:

x\leq 3.5

If we let y be the total distance he can travel in a week then, we may express it as,

y\leq 17.5
