Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Set it up as the following -
3:8 = x:24.
Now cross multiply - 3 * 24 = 8x
72 = 8x
Now divide both sides by 8.
9 = x
The x-intercept of a function is the value of x when y is 0. So let's set sin(x) equal to zero. When does sin(x) equal zero? Based on the unit circle, you know that sin(0) is 0, so that is one x-intercept. You also know that sin(pi) is 0. Basically, every time x, starting from zero, increases or decreases by a multiple of pi, sin(x) is still zero. The answer can be represented by x=n*pi; where n=any integer.
To make the equation easier so that you don't have to use fractions.
Since 10 out of 14 marbles are green, the probability of selecting a green marble is 10/14=0.714.
Similarly, the probability of selecting a red marble would be 4/14.
Answer: 0.714
