start fraction, 1, divided by, 5, end fraction.
If both fire their cannons at the same time, what is the probability that both the pirate and the Captain hit each other's ships?

answer is the third choice:

3x^5+4x^4+x^3+2x^2-10x-7=0

step-by-step explanation:

i need points

step-by-step explanation:

sorry bubs

constant of proportionality = 3 and the equation is c = 3p.

step-by-step explanation:

c = kp   where c = amount of caffeine in mg., p = oz of pepsi and k is the constant of proportionality.

substituting the values given:

24 = 8k

k = 3.

the same value of k will be obtained if we substitute the other given values.
