The number of the blue marbles are in the box will be 102.

<h3>What is the solution of the equation?</h3>

The solution of the equation means the value of the unknown or variable.

A box contains 162 marbles which are either red (r) or blue (b).

r + b = 162 ...1

There are 42 more blue marbles than red marbles.

b = r + 42 ...2

Then from equation 1 and 2, we have

r + r + 42 = 162

           2r = 120

             r = 60

Then the number of blue marble will be

b = 60 + 42

b = 102

More about the solution of the equation link is given below.

How do you solve this?
slavikrds [6]

Answer: To solve these types of questions what I always do is get a protractor if you have one and put it up against to where the dot is in the middle of the empty hole and then get a ruler or a pencil and make the line keep going to see what angle. In this case your answer is 65% I think.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:0.29

Step-by-step explanation:

An average of six cell phone thefts is reported in San Francisco per day. This means our mean value, u = 6

For poisson distribution,

P(x=r) = (e^-u×u^r)/r!

probability that four cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow=

P(x=4)= (e^-6×6^4)/4!

= (0.00248×1296)/4×3×2×1

= 3.21408/24=

0.13392

P(x=5)= (e^-6×6^5)/5!

= (0.00248×7776)/5×4×3×2×1

= 19.28448/120

= 0.1607

probability that four or five cell phones will be reported stolen tomorrow

= P(x=4) + P(x=5)

= 0.13392 + 0.1607

= 0.294624

Approximately 0.29
