Answer:
1/16
Step-by-step explanation:
2^-4=1/2^4=1/16
<span>3/28 exactly, or approximately 10.7%
Since we're drawing without replacement, let's first calculate the probability that the 1st marble is white. There are 3 white marbles out of a total of 8 marbles. So the probability of the 1st marble being white is 3/8.
Now assuming that the first marble picked is white, the probability of the second marble is 2 out of the 7 remaining marbles. So it's probability is 2/7.
This means that the probability of both marbles being white is 3/8 * 2/7 = 6/56 = 3/28, or approximately 10.7%</span>
2x^2 - 4 = 68
add 4 to both sides
2x^2 = 72
divide both sides by 2
x^2 = 36
find the square root of each sides
x = 6, -6
ANSWER: the positive value of x is 6
