Given:

Number of black marbles = 6

Number of white marbles = 6

Let's determine the least number of marbles that can be chosen to be certain that you have chosen two marble of the same color.

To find the least number of marble to be chosen to be cartain you have chosen two marbles of the same color, we have:

Total number of marbles = 6 + 6 = 12

Number of marbles to ensure at least one black marble is chosen = 6 + 1 = 7

Number of marbles to ensure at least one white marble is chosen = 1 + 6 = 7

Therefore, the least number of marbles that you must choose, without looking , to be certain that you have chosen two marbles of the same color is 7.

ANSWER:

7

|-4| - 8 + 10 = ???<br> answer for points
Elis [28]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

As you might know, the two lines surrounding the -4 represent the absolute value, which is basically the distance from 0, and the distance is always positive. To clear any confusion, the absolute value of positive number will not be it's opposite because remember, distance is always positive, so absolute value is always positive (because it is basically the distance from zero).

To help, here is an example (that is not related to the problem!):

|-6| = 6

|6|  = 6

<em>Now, back to the problem...</em>

Since you now know that the absolute value is always positive, |-4| would equal 4. So now you have:

4 - 8 + 10 = ???

From here, you can just solve and the answer is 6, so:

4 - 8 + 10 = 6

You final answer is 6.

Hope this helped somehow :D

galben [10]

Perimeter = length + length + width + width.

7y-7.5 + 7y-7.5 + 7.5y+8 + 7.5y +8

Combine like terms:

29y+1

The perimeter is 29y + 1 feet
