Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract the total he spent on bubblegum, from the total price spent on bubblegum and lollipops.

If you multiply the price for one piece of bubblegum by the quantity of bubblegum purchased, you will get the price for all the bubblegum, 0.50 * 5 = 2.50.

Subtract that from the total price “6.50” to get 4.00.

Then you can divide 4.00 by the lollipops price “0.25” to get the quantity of lollipops purchased, 4.00/0.25 = 16.

Consider the example of finding the probability of selecting a black card or a 6 from a deck of 52 cards.
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

The probability of selecting a black card or a 6 = 7/13

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have given two events. When two events can not occur at the same time,it is known as mutually exclusive event.

According to the question we need to find out the probability of black card or 6. So we can write it as:

P(black card or 6):

The probability of selecting a black card = 26/52

The probability of selecting a 6 = 4/52

And the probability of selecting both = 2/52.

So we will apply the formula of compound probability:

P(black card or 6)=P(black card)+P(6)-P(black card and 6)

Now substitute the values:

P(black card or 6)= 26/52+4/52-2/52

P(black card or 6)=26+4-2/52

P(black card or 6)=30-2/52

P(black card or 6)=28/52

P(black card or 6)=7/13.

Hence the probability of selecting a black card or a 6 = 7/13 ....

Write an equation of the line that passes through (1, −1) and is perpendicular to the line y=1/2x−3. An equation of the perpendi
lapo4ka [179]
Y = 1/2x - 3. Slope here is 1/2. A perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign. So the perpendicular line will have a slope of -2.

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -2
(1,-1)...x = 1 and y = -1
now we sub and find b, the y int
-1 = -2(1) + b
-1 = -2 + b
-1 + 2 = b
1 = b

so ur perpendicular equation is : y = -2x + 1
