2 +4 +3 = 9 total balls

 if they pick a white one first there would be 8 balls left

 there are 2 blue ones so probability would be 2/8 which reduces to 1/4

For what value of p will the pair of linear equations have infinitely many solutions (p-3)x + 3y = p , px+ py = 12
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer: p = 6


Step-by-step explanation:

HI !


 px + 3y - ( p-3)=0


a₁ = p , b₁ = 3 , c₁ = - (p-3)


=====================


12x + py - p=0


a₂ = 12  , b₂ = p , c₂ = -p


since , the equations have infinite solutions , 


a₁/a₂ = b₁/b₂ = c₁/c₂


p/12 = 3/p =  p-3/p



--------------------------------------


p/12 = 3/p


cross multiply ,


p² = 36


p = √36

 p = 6


for the value of p = 6 , the equations will have infinitely many solutions

Please help... need help ASAP due today... which ones are the answers?
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Choices 1 and 4 are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We first need to find what the slope of the line is. That way, we can find out which possible answers are perpendicular to it:

\frac{4-(-2)}{3-1}=\frac{6}{2}=3

Since we now have the slope, we need the negative reciprocal of it. Remember: if x is the slope, it's negative reciprocal will be -\frac{1}{x}. Therefore, if the line's slope is 3, then we need to find answers with a slope of-\frac{1}{3}.

The first answer is correct, as you have marked. The second answer, while written a little weirdly, does show the slope as 3, which we know as wrong. The third choice is not correct, however. This equation is written in point-slope form, wherey-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1}). The only variable we have to worry about is m, which, in the third choice, is 3. The fourth answer is correct, which sounds weird at first. Let's put that equation into slope-intercept form:

x+3y=9\\3y=9-x\\y=3-\frac{1}{3}x\\y=-\frac{1}{3}x+3

Equations like these can be real sneaky, so it's important not to jump to conclusions with them.

Big will's ice cream cone contains 16 grams of saturated fat. This is 80% of his total daily allowance. What big will's total da
Ahat [919]

Answer:

20 grams

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the total allowance of fat

16 grams is 80% of his total allowance

x * 80% = 16

Change percent to a decimal

x *.8 = 16

Divide each side by .9

.8x/.8 = 16/.8

x = 20

B is on line FW. Find the measure of angle CBW.
aliina [53]

Answer:

67+65+x=180

CBW=48 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Do you know that a straight line is 180 degrees. I recommend you to actually try on these questions. It will be a slower process if you just post questions on brainly.

: Ruben put an empty cup underneath a leaking faucet. After 1 1 2 112 hours, Ruben had collected 1 4 14 cup of water. What is th
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The rate is \frac{1}{6} cups per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

It took the faucet 1 1/2 hours equivalent 3/2 hours to fill 1/4 cup by leaking

We need to find the rate in terms of cups that can be filled by water in 1 hour.

Using unitary method:

it takes \frac{3}{2} h for \frac{1}{4} cup

it will take 1 h for how many cups?

= \frac{1 \times \frac{1}{4} }{\frac{3}{2} }= \frac{2}{4 \times 3}= \frac{2}{12}= \frac{1}{6} cups

Hence, the rate is \frac{1}{6} cups per hour
