The probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement is equal to 0.15.

We are given that:

The number of yellow marbles = 3

Number of red marbles = 9

Number of Blue marbles = 8

Total marbles = 3 + 9 + 8

Total marbles = 20

Now, we have to calculate the probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement.

The probability will be:

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 8 / 20 × 7 / 19

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 56 / 380

P( obtaining two blue marbles without replacement )  = 0.15

Therefore, the probability of obtaining two blue marbles without replacement is equal to 0.15.

For the polynomial function ƒ(x)= −2x2 − 4x + 16, find all local and global extrema.
rusak2 [61]

For the given quadratic equation we only have a maximum at y = 18.

<h3>How to find the extrema of the given function?</h3>

Here we have:

f(x) = -2x^2 - 4x + 16

Notice that this is a quadratic equation of negative leading coefficient.

Then we have a maximum at the vertex, and both arms tend to negative infinity as x tends to infinity or negative infinity.

The vertex is at:

x = -(-4)/(2*(-2)) = -1

The maximum is:

f(-1) = -2*(-1)^2 - 4*(-1) + 16 = -2 + 4 + 16 = 18

A hemispherical tank is filled with water and has a diameter of 12 feet. If water weighs 62.4 pounds per cubic foot, what is the
Reil [10]

   Answer:

The total weight = 1286 × 62.4 = 80246 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of the volume of the sphere is

V = 4/3×π×r³

Given

d = 17 feet

d = 2r

r = d/2 = 17/2 = 8.5 feet

V = 4/3×π×r³

Since we need half of the volume as it is a hemispherical tank.

= 1286 ft³

Given that the weighs 62.4 pounds per cubic foot

Thus,  the total weight = 1286 × 62.4 = 80246 pounds.

The pentagons ABCDE and PQRST are similar.
Artemon [7]

The value of x, which is the length of ST in the given similar polygons is: 2.4.

<h3>What are Similar Shapes?</h3>

If two shapes are similar to each other, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths would be equal.

Thus, since both pentagons are similar, we would have:

CB/RQ = DE/ST

Plug in the values

5/6 = 2/x

Cross multiply

x = (6 × 2)/5

x = 12/5

x = 2.4

Therefore, the value of x, which is the length of ST in the given similar polygons is: 2.4.
