George has 20 pieces of candy in a bag: 2 mint sticks, 5 jelly treats, and 13 fruit tart chews. if he eats one piece every 8 minutes, what is the probability his first two pieces will both be mint sticks?

This is a counting principle probability question. There are 2 mints. The probability of the first one being a mint is

2 / 20

The probability of the second one being a mint is

1/ 19

The combined probability is 2/20 * 1/19 = 2 / 380 = 1/190

The decimal equivalent is 0.00526

step-by-step explanation:

because first you have to add the 4x, 9x, and the 7x together and you get 20x and then you add the last numbers up and you get 5and then you put the subtraction sign in there and that's how you get the answer.

the ratio of balloons to tables is 5: 2 and the constant variation is 5.

the equation is y=5x
