Answer:

There were 14 pounds of blueberries sold and 42 pounds of peaches sold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Sadie sold 3 times as many pounds of peaches as pounds of blueberries, she sold more pounds of peaches, so if we multiply 3 by the number of pounds of blueberries sold, we will get the number of pounds of peaches sold, meaning pp equals 3b.

There were 14 pounds of blueberries sold and 42 pounds of peaches sold.

An oil exploration company currently has two active projects, one in Asia and the other in Europe. Let A be the event that the A

Answer:

0.7 ; 0.65 ; 0.115

Step-by-step explanation:

Step-by-step explanation:

P(A) = 0.5 ; P(B) = 0.3

P(not successful) = P(B') = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7 ; P(A') = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

1.)

Both events are independent events, hence the outcome of one does not depend on the other. That is the failure of the Asian project has nothing to do with the European project.

Probability that European project isn't successful;

P(B') = 1 - P(B) = 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

2.)

Probability that atleast one of the 2 projects is successful :

P(AUB) = P(A) + P(B) - P(AnB)

P(AnB) = P(A) * P(B) = 0.5 * 0.3 = 0.15

P(AUB) = 0.5 + 0.3 - 0.15 = 0.65

3.)

Probability that only the Asian project is successful, given that atleast one of the two projects is successful :

[P(A) - P(AnB)] ÷ P(AuB)

[0.5 * 0.15] ÷ 0.65

= 0.075 ÷ 0.65

= 0.1153846

= 0.115

The triangle shown below has an area of 121212 units^2 <br> 2<br> squared.<br> Find xxx.
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation using the formula for the area of a triangle.

Hint #22 / 3

\begin{aligned} \text{Area of a triangle} &= \dfrac12 \cdot \text{base} \cdot \text{height}\\\\ 12&= \dfrac12 \cdot 6 \cdot x \\\\ 12&= 3x \\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{3x}{\blueD{3}} ~~~~~~~\text{divide both sides by } {\blueD{ 3}}\\\\ \dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}&= \dfrac{\cancel{3}x}{\blueD{\cancel{3}}}\\\\ x &=\dfrac{12}{\blueD{3}}\\\\ x &=4\end{aligned}
