Its not 70 its 56, because you have to see how many minutes it takes for 1 to do 4 walls which would be 40*8.
Then you have to see if how many minutes its take a person to do one wall which is 8*40/4 from getting the amount of the 1 person doing 4 walls and get 80.
Then you need to see how many walls a person can paint 7 walls out of 10 people.So, we know how many minutes for each wall which is 80 and then multiply it by 7 to get 560 and divide it by 10 to get a product of 56.
64 Muffins
3:8
24:a
24/3 = y
y=8
a = 8 x y
a = 8 x 8
a = 64 muffins
Question:
Morgan is playing a board game that requires three standard dice to be thrown at one time. Each die has six sides, with one of the numbers 1 through 6 on each side. She has one throw of the dice left, and she needs a 17 to win the game. What is the probability that Morgan wins the game (order matters)?
Answer:
1/72
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Morgan can roll a 17 in 3 different ways. The first way is if the first die comes up 5, the second die comes up 6, and the third die comes up 6. The second way is if the first die comes up 6, the second die comes up 5, and the third die comes up 6. The third way is if the first die comes up 6, the second die comes up 6, and the third die comes up 5. For each way, the probability of it occurring is 1/6 x 1/6 x 1/6 = 1/216. Therefore, since there are 3 different ways to roll a 17, the probability that Morgan rolls a 17 and wins the game is 1/216 + 1/216 + 1/216 = 3/216 = 1/72</em>

3x - 2y - 1 = 0
y = 5x + 4
3x - 2(5x + 4) - 1 = 0
3x - 10x - 8 - 1 = 0
-7x - 9 = 0
-7x = 9
x = -9/7
y = 5x + 4
y = 5(-9/7) + 4
y = -45/7 + 4
y = -45/7 + 28/7
y = - 17/7
solution is (-9/7, -17/7)
