There are 5 x 10 = 50 different outcomes.
Of them only 3x10, 4x10, 4x9, 4x8, 5x10, 5x9, 5x8, 5x7 and 5x6 are greater or equal than 30. Those are 9 possibilities.
Then 50 - 9 = 41 are the possibilities that the product of the two numbers is less than 30.
The probalility, then, is 41/50 = 0.82
Answer:
it increase and by 16.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x=12
Step-by-step explanation:
move the 3 to the other side to get x by itself.
check: 12 + 3 = 15
From the first equation,
x+5 = 3(y+5)
x = 3y + 15 - 5
Now substitue x in the second equation with (3y +15 - 5).
x-5 = 7(y-5)
(3y+15-5) - 5 = 7(y-5)
3y +5 = 7y - 35
-4y = - 40
y = 10
Since y is 10, and x is (3y +15 - 5),
x = 30 + 15 - 5 = 40
They will each equal 1.5 pounds also known as 1 1/2 or 3/2.
