while in high school. After 3 semesters, the student had 41 credits, and after 6 semesters, the student had 68 credits. If C(t), is the number of credits after t semesters, write the equation that correctly models this situation.

Answer:

C(t) = 9t + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

write two equations with the given information

x + 6y = 68

x + 3y = 41

(x and y are just random variables, with x being the number of credits from high school and y being the number of credits earned each semester)

subtract (x+3y=41) from (x+6y=68) to get 3y=27

y = 9

then plug back in to one of the equations to find x

x + 3(9) = 41

x + 27 = 41

x = 14

then write the equation for C(t)

C(t) = 9t + 14

because you start with 14 credits from high school then add 9 credits for each semester taken

A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 5 red marbles, 2 yellow marbles & 3 green marbles. What is the probabil
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

5/11

explanation

Probability here is the chance of selection out of a total. So, we need to first find the total number of marbles.

total

=

5

+

3

+

2

+

1

=

11

So there are  

11

marbles total. The probability that we pick one of the  

3

green marbles out of the  

11

is simply that ratio:

P

green

=

3

11

Same idea for yellow:

P

yellow

=

2

11

The probability of picking either of these colors is simply the sum of their probabilities.

P

green or yellow

=

P

green

+

P

yellow

=

3

11

+

2

11

=

5

11
