Answer:

Larry is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiplying big numbers will give significantly bigger results then multiplying smaller numbers then adding them. 14 + 12 = 26 & 8 + 12 = 20. 14 x 12 = 68 & 8 x 12 = 96. 96 + 168 is alot less then 26 * 20 so that is why larry is wrong

Zoe counts 5 times as many black kittens as white kittens for sale at the pet store. she counts a total of 25 kittens how many m
malfutka [58]

Let us say that:

a = black kittens

b = white kittens

 

We know that:

a = 5 b

a + b = 25

 

Therefore:

5 b + b = 25

6 b = 25

b = 4.17

But we cannot have a fraction value for the number of kittens, so round off:

b = 4

 

So a is:

a = 25 – 4 = 21

 

<span>Hence Zoe counts additional 1 black kitten.</span>

74,443 the value of the digit 4 in the hundreds place is 10 time the value of the 4 in what place value?
Inessa [10]
ANSWER: 4 in the TENS place value.
EXPLANATION:
Okay so 74,443
It is asking if the digit 4 in the hundreds which is 400 is 10 times as large as what other 4 digit
Now the other 2 fours in this number are one in the thousands and one in the tens (4000 and 40)
If you multiply 4000 by 10 that is MUCH larger than 400
If you multiply 40 by 10 you would equal 400
Therefore the answer is the 4 in the TENS place value.

There is a 15% it will rain on both Saturday and Sunday. There is a 60% chance of rain on Saturday. What is the chance of
Artemon [7]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is about conditional probability. Let's say that the probability of raining on Saturday is X=true and the probability of raining on Sunday is Y=true. There is a 15% it will rain on both Saturday and Sunday, to put into the equation it will be:

P(X= true ∩ Y = true) = P(X = true) * P(Y = true)= 0.15

There is a 60% chance of rain on Saturday, mean the  equation is

P(X = true) = 0.6

The question is asking for the chance of rain on Sunday or P(Y = true). If we substitute the second equation to first, it will be:

P(X = true) * P(Y = true)= 0.15

0.6* P(Y = true)= 0.15

P(Y = true)= 0.15/0.6

P(Y = true)= 0.25 = 25%
