Answer:

Probability that a marble drawn at random is not red = \frac{2}{3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A jar contains 3 red, 4 blue, and 2 white marbles.

To find  : What is the probability that a marble drawn at random is not red.

Solution : We have given that

Red marbles = 3.

White marbles = 2.

Blue marbles = 4

Total marbles = 9

Marbles that are not red = white + blue =2+4 = 6.

Probability that a marble drawn at random is not red = \frac{Number\ of\ marbles\ not\ red}{Total\ that\  number\ of\ marbles}.

Probability that a marble drawn at random is not red = \frac{6}{9}.

Probability that a marble drawn at random is not red = \frac{2}{3}.

Therefore, Probability that a marble drawn at random is not red = \frac{2}{3}.

Kendra ordered a set of blue and brown pins. She received 100 pins, and 30% of them were blue. How many blue pins did Kendra rec
natka813 [3]

Answer:

30 blue pins

Step-by-step explanation:

30% is the same as 30 out of 100, so this can be written in this fraction: \frac{30}{100}

now, you should multiply this fraction by the total number of pins she ordered:

100 x \frac{30}{100}

to solve this, you can simplify by dividing 100 by 100, this equals 1

30 times 1 is 30

there are 30 blue pins

How can you find the slope of a line and use it to<br> solve problems?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Mark two points on the line in the graph.

2) Determine the rise and run. Rise ---> difference in y-coordinates. (y2-y1)

Run -----> difference in  x-coordinates (x2 - x1)

3) Plugin the values in the below mentioned formula.

Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}

1.If slope = 0, then the line is parallel to x-axis.

2. If slope is undefined, then the line is parallel to y-axis.

3. If slope is +ve, then the line slant upwards and if slope = -ve, then the line slant downwards.

A line has this equation: x + 10y = 60
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

y=10x+99

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line and use the point-slope formula y−y1=m(x−x1) to find the line perpendicular to x+10y=60.

Points E, F, and D are on circle C, and angle G measures 60°. The measure of arc EF equals the measure of arc FD.
galben [10]

Answer:

∠EFD ≅ ∠EGD ⇒ A

Arc ED ≅ arc FD ⇒ C

m arc FD = 120° ⇒ E

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us revise some facts

  1. Equal chords subtended equal arcs
  2. The measure of an inscribed angle is one-half the measure of the central angle which subtended by the same arc
  3. The measure of a central angle is equal to the measure of its subtended arc
  4. If one angle of an isosceles triangle measure 60° then the triangle is equilateral
  5. The sum of the measures of the interior angles of any quadrilateral is 360°

In the quadrilateral  CDGE

∵ m∠G = 60°

∵ m∠GDC = m∠GEC = 90°

- By using the 5th rule above

∴ m∠G + m∠GDC + m∠DCE + m∠GEC = 360°

∴ 60 + 90 + m∠DCE + 90 = 360

∴ 240 + m∠DCE = 360

- Subtract 240 from both sides

∵ m∠DCE = 120°

In circle C

∵ ∠DCE is a central angle subtended by arc DE

∵ ∠DFE is an inscribed angle subtended by arc DE

- By using the 2nd rule above

∴ m∠DFE = \frac{1}{2} m∠∠DCE

∵ m∠DCE = 120°

∴ m∠DFE = \frac{1}{2} (120)

∴ m∠DFE = 60°

- That means ∠EFD ≅ ∠EGD because their measure is 60°

∴ ∠EFD ≅ ∠EGD

In Δ EFD

∵ EF = FD

∵ m∠DFE = 60°

- By using the 4th rule above

∴ Δ EFD is an equilateral triangle

∴ ED = FD = FE

In circle C

∵ Side ED subtended by arc ED

∵ Side FD subtended by FD

∵ Side ED ≅ side FD ⇒ proved

- By using the 1st rule above

∴ Arc ED ≅ arc FD

∵ m∠ECD = 120°

∵ ∠ECD is a central angle subtended by arc ED

- By using the 3rd rule above

∴ m∠ECD = m arc ED

∴ m of arc ED = 120°

∵ Arc ED ≅ arc FD

∴ m arc ED = m arc FD

∴ m arc FD = 120°
