<h3>Answer:   0.235</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

9 yellow

9 red

9+9 = 18 total

If you select a marble at random, the chances of it being yellow are 9/18.

If you selected another marble at random, without replacing the first marble, then 8/17 is the probability of getting another yellow marble. I subtracted 1 from the numerator and denominator of 9/18 to go to 8/17.

We multiply the two results

(9/18)*(8/17) = 0.235 approximately

There's roughly a 23.5% chance of getting two yellow in a row, where we don't replace the first marble selected.

Matthew purchases 3 loaves of bread for $1.97 each and 4 gallons of milk. Jose purchases 3 pounds of chicken for $3.99 a pound a
BlackZzzverrR [31]
So first you need to multiply 3 and 1.97 which equals 5.91 and that is for Matthew. Now for Jose, you multiply 3 by 3.99 and that equals 11.97. And so to find out how much money they each spend you subtract 11.97 and 5.91 which is 6.06. And to find out how much each gallon of milk is you divide 6.06 by two which is 3.03. So then you multiply 3.03 by 4 because Matthew purchased 4 gallons of milk and that is equal to 12.12 then you multiply 3.03 by 2 for Jose's milk and that equals 6.06. Matthew's total is 5.91 plus 12.12 and that is 18.03. Jose's total is 11.97 plus 6.06 and that equals 18.03 also. Both Matthew and Jose spent $18.03 on groceries and each gallon of milk costs $3.03.

2. Write the mixed number -5 4/9 as a fraction in three different ways
mojhsa [17]

<em>-5 4/9 is one way.</em>

-5 = -45/9, so -45/9 + 4/9. <em>-41/9 is another way.</em>

-41/9 = -4.5555.... , so -4.5555... is another way.

<h2>-5 4/9 , -41/9 , -4.5555....</h2>

Lunch for 4 people only $39.50
Dmitrij [34]

20/100 = 0.2

0.2 * 39.50 = 7.90

They should leave a $7.90 tip.

5/100 = 0.05

39.50 * 0.05 = 1.975 and rounds to 1.98

They should pay $1.98 in sales tax.
