Answer: 9/100</h3>
========================================================
Explanation:
There are 3 pink marbles out of 10 total (we can see that 2 yellow + 3 pink + 5 blue = 10 total)
The fraction 3/10 represents the probability of pulling out a pink marble at random. Since the first one is put back, this means the fraction 3/10 stays the same on the second draw as well.
We use the idea mentioned in the hint to multiply the fractions:
(3/10)*(3/10) = (3*3)/(10*10) = 9/100
The probability of pulling two pink marbles in a row is 9/100, where the first marble is put back.
Effectively, if you were given 100 tries at doing this, you should expect about 9 of those times you get 2 pink marbles in a row.
Answer:
x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
set up the equation:
DBC+DBC=ABC
79+79=(9x-4)
Simplify both sides of the equation.
79+79=9x−4
79+79=9x+−4
(79+79)=9x−4(Combine Like Terms)
158=9x−4
158=9x−4
Flip the equation.
9x−4=158
Add 4 to both sides.
9x−4+4=158+4
9x=162
Divide both sides by 9.
9x
/9 = 162
/9
x=18
