It went from 54 meters above the surface to 9 meters below the surface...
54 to the surface (0) = 54....from 0 to -9 = 9....so it fell (54 + 9) = 63 meters.
so if it fell 63 meters in 35 seconds, then it fell (63/35) = 1.8 meters per second <===
A bag contains 15 blue marbles, 5 red marbles, and 11 green marbles. How many blue marbles must be removed
from the 31 marbles in the bag so that the probability of randomly drawing a blue marble is 1/3?
Answer:
7 blue marbles
Step-by-step explanation:
15 blue
5 red
11 green
Total = 31
Number of Blue marbles that must be removed to obtain a probability of :
P(blue) = 1/3
Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes
Let number of blue marble to be removed = x
Number of Blue becomes : 15 - x
Total becomes : 31 - x
P(blue) = 1/3
1/3 = (15 - x) / (31 - x)
1/3 * (31 - x) = 15 - x
(31 - x) / 3 = 15 - x
31 - x = 45 - 3x
-x + 3x = 45 - 31
2x = 14
x = 14 / 2
x = 7
9 is the answer 15-6 is 9
Since only 30% of the teachers taught for one year, the remaining percentage of the teachers had taught for more than a year, or 70%.
70%=0.7
80(0.7)=56
56 teachers had taught for more than a year.
