Let the distance of Judy from intersection is x and distance of Jackie from intersection is y.
We convert the given information to equations, step by step.
Point 1: When Jackie is 1 mile farther from the intersection than Judy.
This means y is 1 mile more than x.
So,
y = 1 + x
Point 2: The distance between them is 2 miles more than Judy’s distance from the intersection.
Distance between is x+ y.
So, x+y is 2 miles more than y.
x+y = y + 2
⇒
x = 2
From point 1 we have:
y = 1 + x = 1+ 2 = 3
So,
Distance of Judy from intersection is 2 miles and distance of Jackie from intersection is 3 miles.
Answer:
a.
R-------8/38--------RR
R------9/39--------B-------13/38-------RB
G------17/38--------RG
R-------9/38--------BR
B--------13/39------B-------12/38-------BB
G-------17/38-------BG
R-----9/38--------GR
G---------17/39-------B------13/38-------GB
G------16/38-------GG
b).
- 9 ways
- ways you can select 1 blue are; RB,BR,BG,GB
RB=9/39 × 13/38=3/38
BR= 13/39 × 9/38 =3/38
BG= 13/39 × 17/38=17/114
GB= 17/39 × 13/38=17/114
=3/38 +3/38+17/114+ 17/114 =26/57
- Probability of selecting 2 red markers= RR = 9/39 × 8/38 =12/247
- Probability of selecting a green marker and then a red marker= GR= 17/39×9/38 =51/494
