Answer:
42 strawberries are in each basket. 4 strawberries are left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many she put into each basket, you need to divide 256/6. Your answer should 42.6666667. Round down to 42.
To find out how many are left over, multiply 42 x 6. You need to do this to figure out how many strawberries total she used trying to put them evenly into the baskets. Your answer should be 252. Then, you subtract 256 - 252. You do this to find out how many are left over. Your answer is 4.
Answer:
0.2601
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 19C16 = 969 ways for Lester to choose 16 of the 19 objects.
There are 12C11 = 12 ways to choose 11 vases, and 7C5 = 21 ways to choose a non-vase, for a total of (12)(21) = 252 ways to choose exactly 11 vases in 16 objects.
So, the probability of interest is ...
252/969 ≈ 0.2601
_____
nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!) ... the number of ways to choose k objects from n

_____
My personal favorite is using a graphing calculator. The solutions are the x-intercepts of the expression on the left. That is, where its value is zero, as the equation says.
Answer:
-2 =y
Step-by-step explanation:
-12 = 2 + 5y + 2y
Combine like terms
-12 =2+7y
Subtract 2 from each side
-12-2 = 2+7y-2
-14 = 7y
Divide each side by 7
-14/7 = 7y/7
-2 =y
