You should probably start by changing the fractions into decimals. then you multiply the decimal of 1 1/4 by the decimal of 3 1/2. Next you multiply the decimal of 1 3/4  by the decimal of 3 1/2. then you find the difference and that's your answer, alternatively you could leave them as fractions, do the same thing and then change it into a decimal. 
Hope this helps :)

An urn contains nine red and one blue balls. A second urn contains one red and five blue balls. One ball is removed from each ur
il63 [147K]

Answer:

0.362

Step-by-step explanation:

When drawing randomly from the 1st and 2nd urn, 4 case scenarios may happen:

- Red ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 9/10, red ball is drawn from the 2st urn with a probability of 1/6. The probability of this case to happen is (9/10)*(1/6) = 9/60 = 3/20 or 0.15. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (1 blue + 5 blue)/(8 red + 1 blue + 5 blue) = 6/14 = 3/7.

- Red ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 9/10, blue ball is drawn from the 2nd urn with a probability of 5/6. The probability of this event to happen is (9/10)*(5/6) = 45/60 = 3/4 or 0.75. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (1 blue + 4 blue)/(8 red + 1 blue + 1 red + 4 blue) = 5/14

- Blue ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 1/10, blue ball is drawn from the 2nd urn with a probability of 5/6. The probability of this event to happen is (1/10)*(5/6) = 5/60 = 1/12. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (4 blue)/(9 red + 1 red + 4 blue) = 4/14 = 2/7

- Blue ball is drawn from the 1st urn with a probability of 1/10, red ball is drawn from the 2st urn with a probability of 1/6. The probability of this event to happen is (1/10)*(1/6) = 1/60. The probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue given this scenario is (5 blue)/(9 red + 5 blue) = 5/14.

Overall, the total probability that a ball drawn randomly from the third urn is blue is the sum of product of each scenario to happen with their respective given probability

P = 0.15(3/7) + 0.75(5/14) + (1/12)*(2/7) + (1/60)*(5/14) = 0.362

Type the correct answer in the box. Use numerals instead of words. If necessary, use / for the fraction bar.
levacccp [35]

From given picture we can see that X is mid point of line PQ

So PQ=2PX

From given picture we can see that Y is mid point of line PR

So PR=2PY


Now consider triangles PRQ and PYX

Sides PQ and PX has same ratio as of sides PR and PY (as calculated above)

angle XPY= angle QPR  (common angle)

Hence triangles PRQ and PYX are similar.

We know that ratio of the sides of similar triangles is always equal so we can write:

\frac{PQ}{PX} = \frac{QR}{XY}

Plug the given values QR=8 and PQ=2PX

\frac{2PX}{PX} = \frac{8}{XY}

\frac{2}{1} = \frac{8}{XY}

2 = \frac{8}{XY}

XY = \frac{8}{2}

XY = 4

Hence final answer is XY = 4 units.

PLEASE HELP ILL GIVE BRANLIEST!!! ( and 50 points! )
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

As we know:

A nickle is worth 5 cents.

A dime is worth 10 cents.

A quarter is worth 25 cents.

Here is what Robert had:

Number of nickles (a)

Number of dimes (b)

Number of quarters (c)

Here is assumption:

5a + 10b + 25c = 850

a = 3b

c = b + 10

=> 5(3b) + 10b + 25(b + 10) = 850

=> 50b + 250 = 850

=> 50b = 600

=> b = 600/50 = 12

=> a = 3b = 3 x 12 = 36

=> c = b + 10 = 12 + 10 = 22

=> Number of nickles: 36

=> Number of dimes: 12

=> Number of quarters: 22

Hope this helps!
