Answer:

p=11

Step-by-step explanation:

let A(3,7),B(-6,1),C(9,p) be the points.

or

B(-6,1),A(3,7),C(9,p) are the points in the same line.

let A divides BCin the ratio k:1

3=\frac{9k+1(-6)}{k+1} \\3k+3=9k-6\\3k-9k=-6-3\\-6k=-9\\k=\frac{-9}{-6} =\frac{3}{2}  \\so~ratio~is~\frac{3}{2} :1\\or\\3:2\\again\\7=\frac{3p+2(1)}{3+2} \\5*7=3p+2\\3p=35-2=33\\p=\frac{33}{3} =11

<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>If 3 female prison inmates  are selected at random,  the probability that none </h2><h2>are mothers = \frac{1}{64}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of prison inmates be 100

Given that Seventy-five percent of female  prison inmates are mothers.

The number of mother inmates = 75% (100) = 75

The number of inmates who are not mothers = 100 - 75 = 25

3 female prison inmates are selected at random. The probability that none  are mothers = ??

Selecting an inmate who is not a mother = \frac{25}{100} = \frac{1}{4}

Selecting 3 female who are not mothers = (\frac{1}{4} ) (\frac{1}{4} ) (\frac{1}{4} ) = \frac{1}{64}

By dividing the 9 pounds with 5 (the amount of bread) we will get 1.8

So each bread is 1.8

but if u want to check the answer then we can multiply 1.8 with the 5 loaves of bread and it will result in 9
