Mark and Don have to sell 11 and 59 marbles respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

Lets assume, the number of marbles Mark has  is x

As, Don has 4 more than 5 times the number of marbles mark has, so the number of marbles Don has = 5x+ 4

Question says that the total number of marbles is 70. So, the equation will be...

x+(5x+4)= 70\\ \\ 6x+4= 70 \\ \\ 6x = 70-4\\ \\ 6x=66 \\ \\ x= \frac{66}{6}= 11

<em>So, the number of marbles Mark has = 11 </em>

<em>and the number of marbles Don has = (5*11)+4 = 55+4= 59</em>

A magician has a collection of 52 cards, with 26 red and 26 black cards. Four of these cards are classified as 'special', and tw
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

option B (28/52)

Step-by-step explanation:

from probability

P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)

where

P(A∪B) = probability that event A or B happen

P(A∩B) = probability that event A and B happen simultaneously

P(A) =  probability that event A happen

P(B) =  probability that event B happen

the probability that the card is special or red

P( special or red)= P(special) + P(red) - P( special and red)

since

P(special)= 4/52

P(red) = 26/52

P( special and red) = 2/52

therefore

P( special or red)= 4/52 + 26/52 -  2/52 = 28/52

P( special or red)= 28/52

(option B)

A right angled triangle has two shorter sides and one is twice as long as the other. The hypotenuse is 25cm long. What are the l
Bas_tet [7]

Answer:  x =  14.43

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean Theorem states the following:  

a^2 + b^2 = c^2  

Make one side of the triangle x  

Make the second side of the triangle 2x  

Now, you can plug the values into the equation,  right?  

x^2 + 2x^2 = 25^2 or 625  

3x^2 = 625

Divide each side by 3 and you are left with:  

x^2 =  208.33

Now, take the square root of 208.33

x =  14.43

That is the shorter side. The longer side is twice that value: Therefore, 14.43 x 2 = 28.86 14.43 is one side of the triangle. The other is that same value times two. Therefore, the sides of your triangle are: 14.43 Shorter side 28.86 Longer side
