Answer:
1) Rolling a 3 is unlikely and rolling a 4 is unlikely too.
2) The probability of niki drawing a green marble is likely and the probability of tom drawing a blue marble is unlikely.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Since there is only one 3 out of 6 numbers, the probability of that outcome is 1/6, which is low. The same thing goes for throwing a 4.
2) The reason why it is equally likely for niki drawing a green is because there are more green marbles than the other marbles. You could see it as a fraction as well, which is 4/9 Which is very close to one half (4.5). For tom, there are less blue marbles which brings it down to the unlikely spot (fraction = 3/9)
Hopefully this helps, and hopefully it isn't too confusing.
To find the first blank, just replace x in the equation with 12 and solve.
a(12) = 50 - 1.25(12) = your answer for blank 1
For blank 2: because x represents the number of apps on her phone, and x is given 12 for this problem, she bought 12 apps.
For blank 3: You would mention how many apps she got twice, so not the first option or the third option. It should be the answer from the first blank because the equation represents how much money is in her account.
