Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. were going to subtract the wholes so what is 9-9=? it =0

2. Now we know we have 0 wholes. Next what is 8 -4=? 8 -4=4

3. Now our fraction is 4/12 now since 4 x 3 =12 then that means it's the first number besides 3 so what I mean about that is it is 1/3 but if the fraction were 8/12 then it would be 2/3 but it is 4/12 so it is 1/3.

4. That is our answer and were finished the final answer is 1/3 or 33.333

5.Hope this helps have a awesome day:)

c = cost per pound of chocolate chips

w = cost per pound of walnuts.

\bf \stackrel{\textit{3 lbs of "c"}}{3c}+\stackrel{\textit{5 lbs of "w"}}{5w}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{costs}}{15} \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{12 lbs of "c"}}{12c}+\stackrel{\textit{2 lbs of "w"}}{2w}~~=~~\stackrel{\textit{costs}}{33} \end{cases}\qquad \impliedby \textit{let's use elimination} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \begin{array}{llccccccl} 3c+5w=15&\times (-4)\implies &-12c&+&-20w&=&-60\\ 12c+2w=33&&12c&+&2w&=&33\\ \cline{3-7}\\ &&0&&-18w&=&-27 \end{array}

\bf -18w=-27\implies w=\cfrac{-27}{-18}\implies \blacktriangleright w=\cfrac{3}{2} \blacktriangleleft \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{substituting on the 1st equation}}{3c+5\left(\cfrac{3}{2} \right)=15}\implies 3c+\cfrac{15}{2}=15 \implies \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{2}}{2\left( 3c+\cfrac{15}{2} \right)=2(15)} \\\\\\ 6c+15=30\implies 6c=15\implies c=\cfrac{15}{6}\implies \blacktriangleright c=\cfrac{5}{2} \blacktriangleleft

P(B) = 2/15

The area of rectangle A is 5(7) = 35 in².
The area of rectangle B is 3(4) = 12 in²
The area of square C is 4(4) = 16 in²
The area of rectangle D is 3(9) = 27 in²

The total area of the figure is 35+12+16+27 = 90 in².

The probability of hitting B is 12/90 which simplifies to 2/15.
