Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
2 x 8 is just another way of saying what would 8 + 8 be
for example, 5x5 would just 25 but 5+5+5+5+5 would also be 25
Hope this helps, sorry im not a good teacher:)
A) 1/2
Because this scale factor is smaller than 1, which means it’s making it smaller than the original.
When you go into this problem, you want to figure out your marble ammount to 50 so in this case we will say C for color and 50 for the total ammount of marbles.
We know 15 are pink, 8 are black, 2 are green, 18 are clear, and 7 are striped
15P/50
8B/50
2G/50
18C/50
7S/50 for a total of 50 marbles
Now we use the chart to decide our awnsers
A. We know our propability of drawing a green and clear is 20/50 which if we simplify is a 2/5 ratio. If We put this in perspective 2/5 is rare and is unlikley to even.
B. We know a striped marble is 18/50 or 1.8/5 ratio which is mainly unlikely
C. We have 23/50 marbles that are black and pink, our propability is about 2.3/5 and gives us an even chance to get one of these
D. We know we have 33/50 marbles that are pink and clear and gives us a 3.3/5 chance of getting one of these and gives us an even to likely chance of getting one of these.
E. If we have a total of 17 marbles in these 3 colors, we have a 1.7/5 chance of getting one of these and is probably impossible to unlikey.

Of equals multiply in math
Jaunita keeps 187.5
