Melanie has a bag that contains orange chews, cherry chews, and peach chews. She performs an experiment. Melanie randomly removes a chew from the bag, records the result, and returns the chew to the bag. Melanie performs the experiment 61 times. The results are shown below: A orange chew was selected 38 times. A cherry chew was selected 5 times. A peach chew was selected 18 times. Based on these results, express the probability that the next chew Melanie removes from the bag will be peach chew as a decimal to the nearest hundredth.

0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Total number of trials = 61

Number of orange chews = 38

Number of cherry chews = 5

Number of peach chews = 18

Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;

This is an experimental probability problem ;

Using the relation :

Experimental probability of A;

Number of successes (A) / total number of trials

Hence, Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;

Experimental probability of peach chew :

Number of trails = 61 ; number of successes (peach chew) = 18

P(peach chew) = 18 / 61

P( peach chew) = 0.2950819

= 0.30 ( nearest hundredth)

you already gave the answer

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: solve one of the equations for one of the variables. let's solve the first equation for y:

step 2: substitute that equation into the other equation, and solve for x.

step 3: substitute x = 4 x = 4 x=4 into one of the original equations, and solve for y.
