HELP PLEASE!!!!!!!A box contains 4 oranges, 9 apples, and 3 pears. Liliana selects a piece of fruit from the box at random.

What is the probability that she selects an orange or a pear?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer: The probability that she selects an orange or a pear is 7/16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given number of oranges = 4,

Apples = 9,

Pears = 3,

Total number of fruits = 4 + 9 + 3 = 16,

If she selects a piece of fruit from the box at random,

Then, the probability that she selects an orange or a pear

= The probability of oranges + The probability of oranges

$=(^4C_1)/(^(16)C_1)+(^3C_1)/(^(16)C_1)$

$=(4)/(16)+(3)/(16)$

$=(7)/(16)$

Answer 2

Answer:
7 out of 16 . so therefore you add the number of oranges and pairs then on the number 16 you just add all pieces of friut

Which expression shows how 6⋅45 can be rewritten using the distributive property?20⋅6+20⋅5
6⋅40+6⋅5
6⋅40+6
6⋅4+6⋅5

Answers

The correct option will be option B.

An expression is given in the question which is , 6 × 45 .

We have to find an expression using the distributive property.

What is the distributive property of addition ?

The distributive property of addition is given by , A × ( B + C ) = A × B + A × C.

As per the question ;

The expression given is = 6 × 45

or we can also write it as ; 6 × ( 40 + 5 )

Let's assume that here , 6 = a , b = 40 and c = 5 .

Using the distributive property we can re-write it as ;

6 × ( 40 + 5 )

which will be equal to ;

6 × 40 + 6 × 5

∴ 6 × ( 40 + 5 ) = 6 × 40 + 6 × 5

Thus , the correct option is option B.

Simple...

remember A(B+C)=A*B+A*C

You have to have a common factor in both terms..(number)..this number would be 6.

So we know it has to have 6 in your answer.

If we plug n chug..:

20*6+20*5=220

6*40+6*5=270

6*40+6=246

6*4+6*5=54

6*45= 270

This being said, 6*40+6*5 is the choice you need.

Thus, your answer.
