Answer:

They are both equal!

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answers, do the following

For 75% of 85 multiply 0.75 by 85:

(0.75)(85) = 63.75

For 85% of 75 multiply 0.85 by 75:

(0.85)(75) = 63.75

So, both of them are equal to each other.

HOWEVER, there is thing with percents that the opposites equal each other. So, you see how the percent and the whole number is changed with the equations? Like 85 turns to 85% and whatnot. If the percent/whole number of something is reversed it will equal the same thing.  

So, you don't even need to do all the math to infer that they would be the same number. Changing the percent to the other number will yield the same result.

I hope that makes sense, ask questions if you need!!

Does choosing a blue marble represent the complement event of choosing a red marble? Explain.
Arada [10]

Answer:

Below is the sample response

Step-by-step explanation:

The complementary event for choosing a red marble is choosing a blue or purple. The total number of marbles is 5. The probability of choosing a red marble is 1/5, and the complement would be 4/5. That is not the same as choosing a blue marble.
