Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

After adding 88 red marbles, there are 50 blue marbles out of the 204 marbles total.

Let the number of blue marbles to be added be x.

\frac{50+x}{204+x}=\frac{5}{12} \\ \\ 600+12x=1020+5x \\ \\ 420=7x \\ \\ x=60

Choose all which define events A and B as independent events.
Firlakuza [10]

There are 2 answers: Choice 1, Choice 4

=======================================

Why is this? Because we use the rule

P(A & B) = P(A) * P(B)

which only works if events A and B are independent

----

For the first answer choice,

P(A) * P(B) = 0.6*0.4 = 0.24 = P(A & B)

so that matches.

The same applies to the fourth answer choice as well

P(A) * P(B) = 0.3*0.2= 0.06 = P(A & B)

----

The other answer choices don't match up.

The second answer choice has

P(A) * P(B) = 0.3*0.4 = 0.12 but that doesn't match with the 0.70 given

Similarly for the third answer choice,

P(A) * P(B) = 0.5*0.1 = 0.05 which doesn't match with the 0.60

H=255-21t-16t^2<br><br> PLEASE HELP!!
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

3.15 seconds is the answer.

<u>Explanation</u>

when the ball touches the ground, h =0

hence,

0=255-21t-16t²

16t²+21t-225=0

here a=16 ,b=21, c= -225

t=   \frac{ - b± \sqrt{ {b }^{2}  - 4ac} }{2a} \\  \\ t=   \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{ {21}^{2}  - 4 \times 16 \times  - 225} }{2 \times 16} \\  =  \frac{ - 21 ± \sqrt{441 - ( - 14400)} }{32} \\  =  \frac{ - 21± \sqrt{14841} }{32}  \\  =  \frac{ - 21±121.82}{32}  \\  \\ t =   \frac{ - 21 + 121.82}{32}  \: or \:  \: t =  \frac{ - 21 - 121.82}{32}  \\ t = 3.15 \:  \: or \:  \: t =  - 4.46

time cannot be negative, hence t = -4.46 can be avoided

The ball takes 3.15 seconds to hit the ground.
