Ella wants to buy apples and strawberries to make a fruit tart. Apples cost 3.50 per pound and strawberries cost 3.75 per pound. How many pounds of fruit does she buy if she buys 0.5 pounds of apples and 1.5 pounds of strawberries? How many pounds of fruit does she buy if she buys x pounds of apples and y pounds of strawberries?

2 pounds of fruit

x+y pounds of fruits

Step-by-step explanation:

The first questions asks for total amount of fruit she bought. Before that, it stated, she bought .5 pound and 1.5 pounds of apples and strawberries. The equation would be 1.5+.5= 2. The next question is asking for the total amount of fruits if X was total pounds of apples while Y was total pound of strawberry. It is again asking for the total amount so the equation would be x+y= total.

a) one student is chosen from classroom a, then a student is chosen from classroom b.  

step-by-step explanation:

independent events are ones in which the probability of one event does not affect the probability of the second event.

one student is chosen from classroom a; this does not affect the chances of choosing a student from classroom b.   this makes these independent events.

when one card is chosen from a standard deck and then set aside before a second card is chosen, the probability of the second card being chosen changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when one student is chosen from classroom a and then a second student is chosen from classroom a, the probability of choosing the second student changes.   this makes them dependent events.

when a letter is chosen from the alphabet and then a second letter is chosen, the probability of choosing the second letter changes.   this makes them dependent events.
