The value of y in the triangle is 7.5

<h3>How to calculate the value of y?</h3>

The given parameter is the triangle

On the triangle, we have the following equivalent ratio

y : 8 = y + 15 : 20

Express as fraction

y/8 = y + 15/20

Cross multiply

20y = 8y + 90

Collect the like terms

20y - 8y = 90

Evaluate

12y = 90

Divide by 12

y = 7.5

Hence, the value of y in the triangle is 7.5

Give a decimal number that is less than 23.7 and greater than 23.7
Makovka662 [10]
I think you are asking for two numbers, so you just have to look at the decimals.

23.7

We can use an infinite amount of numbers here, but to make it simple you can just take away 0.01 or add 0.01.

23.69
23.71

These are funny answers as well because they both round to 23.7 and meet the requirements.

Amy reached into a bag, recorded the color of the tile she picked, returned the tile and drew again. These are the tiles she has
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

(a) P(next ball with blue) =  \frac{3}{10}       (b)  P(Not to be red) = 1-\frac{2}{5} =\frac{3}{5}

(c)  P(drawing 70 times yellow ball) = \frac{1}{10} \times 70 = 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The total outcomes of the color of tile are :-

Red , Red, Blue, Yellow, Blue, Red, Green, Red, Blue, Green.

From the Question,

Total number of outcomes = 10

(a) What is the probability that her next draw will be blue ?

        Red = 4,

        Blue = 3,

        Green = 2,

        Yellow = 1.

   P(next ball with blue) =  \frac{3}{10}.

(b) What is the probability that her next draw will NOT be red?

    P(Red ball) =  \frac{4}{10} = \frac{2}{5}

But we have to find

   P(Not to be red) = 1-\frac{2}{5} =\frac{3}{5}

(c) If Amy draws 70 more times with the same tiles from the question above, what probability would you expect a yellow?

  P(Yellow ball) =  \frac{1}{10}

drawing it 70 times we get the probability

   P(drawing 70 times yellow ball) = \frac{1}{10} \times 70 = 7.
