Answer:
2/5
Step-by-step explanation:
There's 5 jellybeans in the bag total and of the five, 2 of them are red, so the probability that Cynthia gives him 2 reds is 2/5.
Answer:
b = -3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
6b+14=−7−b
6b+14=−7+−b
6b+14=−b−7
Step 2: Add b to both sides.
6b+14+b=−b−7+b
7b+14=−7
Step 3: Subtract 14 from both sides.
7b+14−14=−7−14
7b=−21
Step 4: Divide both sides by 7.
b= -3
Answer:
63 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
2/70 = 1.8/x Cross multiply
2x = 70 * 1.8 Combine
2x = 126 Divide by 2
x = 126/2
x = 63
The actual distance is 63 miles.
Answer:
Problem 9: -1/2
Problem 10: 1/5
Step-by-step explanation:
Problem 10: Label the given ln e^(1/5) as y = ln e^(1/5).
Write the identity e = e. Raise the first e to the power y and the second e to the power 1/5 (note that ln e^(1/5) = 1/5). Thus, we have:
e^y = e^(1/5), so that y = 1/5 (answer).
Problem 9: Let y = (log to the base 4 of) ∛1 / ∛8, or
y = (log to the base 4 of) ∛1 / ∛8, or
y = (log to the base 4 of) 1 /2
Write out the obvious:
4 = 4
Raise the first 4 to the power y and raise the second 4 to the power (log to the base 4 of) 1 /2. This results in:
4^y = 1/2. Solve this for y.
Note that 4^(1/2) = 2, so that 4^(-1/2) = 1/2
Thus, y = -1/2
