A box contains 7 plain pencils and 3 pens. A second box contains 5 color pencils and 5 crayons. One item from each box is chosen at random. What is the
probability that a plain pencil from the first box and a color pencil from the second box are selected?
form

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

add them all to 20

add 7 and 5 to get 12

12 over 20 is 60 percent

1.4

2.3

step-by-step explanation:

the formula for the constant of variation is

y= kx

divide each side by x

y/x =kx/x

y/x =k

we know a and y

1.   y/x = k

4/1 =4

check the other values to make sure they are the same

8/2 = 4   12/3 =4   and 16/4 =4  

the constant of variation is 4

2.   y/x = k

3/1 =3

check the other values to make sure they are the same

6/2 = 3   9/3 =3   and 12/4 =3  

the constant of variation is 3

x=17

step-by-step explanation:

solve 3x-24=x+10

then that makes it 2x=34 because you subtract an x from both sides to get rid of the one on the right, and then you add 24 to both sides to get rid of the 24 on the left

divide by both sides by 2 to get your answer so that you can get your answer
