Answer: The numbers are 10.8 and 46.2.
Step-by-step explanation: The sum of two numbers is 57.
x + y = 57
Assume x is the larger number.
x - 3 = 4y
x = 4y + 3
Use subsitution.
4y + 3 + y = 57
y = -4y - 3 + 57
y = -4y + 54
5y = 54
y = 10.8
Plug in y.
x + 10.8 = 57
x = 46.2
Check.
46.2 - 3 = 4(10.8)
43.2 = 43.2
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 6+6.25=12.25 48.25-12.25=36 6x6=36 6+1=7
There are 14 fruit to start with and 2 bananas
2/14
then there are 13 fruit and 2 pears
2/13
So the probability of the two events in a row without replacement is:
(2/14)(2/13)=4/182
2/91 ( about 2.2%)
