A box contains 2 red marbles, 3 green marbles, and 3 blue marbles. if we choose a marble, then another marble without putting th

e first one back in the box, what is the probability that the first marble will be green and the second will be blue?

There are 7 marbles, including 3 green ones, so at the start, there is a 3/7 chance of getting a green marble.
Assuming you did get a green one, there are now 6 marbles left, with 2 blue marbles, so there is a 2/6 chance of taking a blue marble.
Given that both have to happen, you must multiply each probability, hence the total probability is 3/7 x 2/6, or a 1/7 chance.
Hope this helped

What is the vertex of g(x) = –3x2 + 18x + 2?

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

$(3,29)$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a formula that can be used to find the x-value of the vertex of the parabola. This formula is $x=\frac{-b}{2a}$

We have the function $g(x)=-3x^2+18x+2$

From this function, we can find that

$a=-3\\b=18\\c=2$

We can plug in our know values into the formula to get

$x=\frac{-18}{2(-3)\\} \\x=\frac{-18}{-6} \\\\x=3$

Then we can plug in our x-value to find the y-value of the vertex

$g(3)=-3(3)^2+18(3)+2\\\\g(3)=-3(9)+54+2\\\\g(3)=-27+54+2\\\\g(3)=29$

This means that the vertex would be $(3,29)$

Triangle CDE is an isosceles triangle with angle d congruent to angle E if CD= 4x+9, DE= 7x-5, CE= 16x-27, find x and the measur

Montano1993 [528]

ANSWER

$x = 3$
$CD= 21 \: units$
$DE= 16 \: units$

$CE= 21 \: units$

EXPLANATION

It was given that ∆CDE is an isosceles triangle.

The length of the sides are given in terms of x as follows.

$CD=4x+9$

$DE=7x-5$

$CE=16x-27$

It was also given that, angle D is congruent to angle E.

This implies that, side CD and CE are equal.

Thus,

$|CD| = |CE|$
In terms of x, we have;

$4x + 9 = 16x - 27$

We group like terms to get,

$16x - 4x = 9 + 27$

$12x = 36$

Divide both sides by 12 to get,

$x = \frac{36}{12}$

$\therefore \: x = 3$

The length of the sides are;

$CD=4(3)+9 = 21 \: units$

$DE=7(3)-5 = 16 \: units$

$CE=16(3)-27 = 21 \: units$

Use this picture to solve for X

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

x=2

Step-by-step explanation:

i would set up a system of equation using the pythagorean theorem:

1^2+x^2=z^2

4^2+x^2=y^2

Add up these equations to get:

17+2x^2=y^2+z^2

But notice that

y^2+z^2=5^2

So you can substitute

17+2x^2=25

2x^2=8

x^2=4

x=2
