Answer:

5) C pink 6) A -1/2x + 1/4 7) D z ≥ 0

Explanation:

5) White 1/6 = 4/24

Green 1/3 = 8/24

Pink 1/8 = 3/24

Yellow 3/8 = 9/24

6) 11/2x - 2(3x - 1/8) Distribute the -2

11/2x - 6x + 1/4 Combine like terms

-1/2x + 1/4

7) z ≥ 0

z is greater than or equal to 0

Answer:

5) C

6) A

7) C

Step by step explanation:

Probabilities of choosing each color:

White: 1/6

Green: 1/3

Pink: 1/8

Yellow: 3/8

Find a common denominator

1/6, 1/3, 1/8, 3/8

24

4/24 , 8/24 , 3/24 , 9/24

3/24, (pink) has the highest chance of being picked because it's numerator is the highest of all the options.

C

6)


(11)/(2)x -2(3x - (1)/(8) )

Multiply 2 by the values inside the parenthesis


(11)/(2)x\ -6x\ +\ (1)/(4)

Convert 11/2x into a mixed number


5\ (1)/(2) x-6x\ +\ (1)/(4)

Subtract the x's


-(1)/(2) x + (1)/(4)

The answer to question #6 is A

7)

-2z ≥ 0

Use a few examples to represent z

z = -1 z = 0 z = 1

-2(-1) -2(0) -2(1)

2 0 -2

The value of -2z must be greater than zero, so z equaling any positive number is not an option.

The two option that did work for the value of z were (z = -1) and (z = 0),

so the inequality that represents this is (z ≤ 0)

C

Hope this helps :)
