Answer:

I put all the steps down. I don't know which one you want. I hope you understand it now.

Step-by-step explanation:

b = baking time

p = preperation time

p = 1/3b

12 = 1/3b

b = 12*3

b = 36 minutes

Find a number such that one-half of the number is 9 less than two-thirds of the number
dimulka [17.4K]
Let's say, the number is "a"
thus        \bf \cfrac{1}{2}a=\cfrac{2}{3}a-9\implies \cfrac{a}{2}=\cfrac{2a}{3}-9\implies \cfrac{a}{2}=\cfrac{2a-27}{3}

cross-multiply and solve for "a"

-1/2 + 4/9
stira [4]

Answer:

-1/18

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to change both fractions to have like denominators. The LCM of 2 and 9 is 18.

Second, you have to multiply -1/2 by 9/9 to get a denominator of 18. -1/2 x 9/9 is - 9/18.

Third, you have to multiply 4/9 by 2/2 to get a denominator of 18. 4/9 x 2/2 = 8/18.

Fourth, -9/18 + 8/18 = -1/18

Hope this helps!

A single die is rolled twice. Find the probability of rolling an even number the first time and a number greater than 3 the seco
IceJOKER [234]

Events

• A: an even number is rolled in the first time

,

• B: a number greater than 3 is rolled the second time

The probability of rolling an even number is:

\begin{gathered} P(A)=\frac{\text{ number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{ total possible outcomes}} \\ P(A)=\frac{3}{6} \\ P(A)=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

The probability of rolling a number greater than 3 is:

\begin{gathered} P(B)=\frac{\text{ number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{ total possible outcomes}} \\ P(B)=\frac{3}{6} \\ P(B)=\frac{1}{2} \end{gathered}

Events A and B are independent, then the probability of one happening after the other is:

\begin{gathered} \text{ P(A and B) = }P(A)\cdot P(B) \\ \text{ Substituting with the values previously found:} \\ \text{ P(A and B) = }\frac{1}{2}\cdot\frac{1}{2} \\ \text{ P(A and B) = }\frac{1}{4} \end{gathered}
