The probability of winning money on a particular ''scratch and win'' ticket is said to be 3 out of 10. If mrs. curcio buys 25 tickets to hand out to her students, how many of those would you predict to be ''winners''?

Match the given slope (m) and y.Intercept (b) with the equation of the line in slope intercept form
Slope, m. 2. y Intercept, b = 5
DRAG & DROP THE ANSWER
Slope, m = 3. y intercept, b - 7
OH
y = 122
Slope, m - 25. y-intercept, b = 0
O!
y = 252
Slope, m = 12. y Intercept, b=0
y = 10 + 15
Slope, m = 10. y-Intercept, b = 15
y = 2x + 5
y = 3x + 7

Answer:

8/25

Explanation:

The total amount of tickets is 25 so divide 10 from 25 to figure out what you multiply by to get 25

--> 25/10 = 2.5

now multiply 2.5 x 3 to have a numerator which would be your probability of winners out of 25 tickets

--> 2.5 x 3 = 7.5 (round to the nearest whole number)

7.5 rounded to the nearest whole number --> 8

so you get 8 out of 25 = 8/25
