You said there were 40 yellow carsso 40×9 is 360
Are you are saying that the absolute value of negative six times x equals 54? If you are, then the answer is x equals positive or negative 9. To solve, set up two equations, because it is an absolute value question. In the first equation, write -6x=54. Divide by -6 to get -9. That is just one of two answers. In the second equation, write 6x=54. Divide 54 by 6 to get positive 9. Your answer is positive and negative 9.
Add 121/4 to each side:
x²+11x+121/4 < 121/4-8
x²+11x+121/4 < 89/4
(x+11/2)² < √89/2 ⇒ -√89/2 < x+11/2 < √89/2
-11/2-√89/2 < x < -11/2+√89/2
50/50 chance of getting a yellow marble.
Explanation:
There are 10 yellow marbles in the bag, and the other half are other colors. This would create a 50/50 ratio.
I am honestly super rusty with probability but oh well...
