A container contains 3 yellow, 2 orange, and 4 pink roses. Without looking, if James chooses a rose from the container, what is the probability that James will select an orange rose?

Orange rose = 2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find probability of picking one item, you add all the possible things you could choose. So, 3+2+4 equals a total of 9 outcomes, and that would be your denominator for your fraction of probability. From there it's really easy. Just put the amount of things your trying to find the probability for in the numerator spot.

Ex.

There are 9 total roses so that would be the denominator (?/9)

To find out the probability for picking an orange rose, you'd put the 2 in as the numerator because that is the total number of orange roses you have (2/?)

Then just put the two together (2/9).

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.

a; x = 0.5

step-by-step explanation:

-10x = -5

x = 0.5
