Answer:
C, The marble is 3 times as likely to be black as it is to be white.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of a marble being drawn is:
number of marbles of that color/total number of marbles
Find total number of marbles
5+8+4+15= 35
So the probability of drawing:
white: 5/32
polka dot: 8/32
striped: 4/32
black: 15/32
The probability of drawing white, polka dot, or striped is obviously different, so A is wrong.
The probability of drawing every color but black is 5/32 + 8/32 + 4/32 = 17/32, which is more than the chance of drawing black, so B is wrong.
The probability of drawing black is 15/32, and that is 3 times larger than the probability of drawing white (5/32), so C is correct.
The probablility of drawing a polka dot is 8/32, which is not four times as large as stripe (4/32), so D is wrong.
Yes! This is because -150/10 can be simplified to be -15, which is a rational number.
The word “rational” sounds like another math word you’ve heard of before. Do you know what it is?
Well, it’s “ratio”!! Ratios can be seen in the forms x:y and x/y.
ANY RATIONAL NUMBER HAS THE ABILITY TO BE WRITTEN AS A RATIO!! This will completely exclude numbers with super long decimal points (ex: 1.2345678809928374737272828...)
This number also meets the requirements of being an integer. An integer is any whole number (this excludes decimals and fractions)
I know it’s written as a fraction. However, the fraction could be simplified, making it -15, which means this is both a rational number and an integer!!
Answer:
Average weight of the bags of potatoes is 3.8 pounds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Weight of the first bag, 
pounds.
Weight of the second bag is 0.4 pounds less than twice the weight of first bag. This means,
Weight of the third bag is 0.6 pounds more than that of the first bag. This means,
Weight of the fourth bag is 0.3 pounds less than that of the second bag. This means,
Therefore, the average weight of the bags of potatoes is given as the sum of all the weights and then divide the sum by 4. Therefore,
Therefore, average weight of the bags of potatoes is 3.8 pounds.
