We have 2x + 4x + 5x = 33 so 11x = 33 and x 3.

The children are 6, 12 and 15

Answers:

10. b. $\displaystyle 13$

9. b. $\displaystyle 20$

8. a. $\displaystyle 33$

7. a. $\displaystyle 25°$

Step-by-step explanations:

10. Both segments are considered congruent, so turn both expressions into an equation:

$\displaystyle 3x - 5 = x + 7 \hookrightarrow \frac{-12}{-2} = \frac{-2x}{-2} \\ \\ 6 = x$

Plug this back into the equation to get $\displaystyle 13$ on both sides.

9. All edges in a square obtain congruent right angles and edges, so set $\displaystyle 45$ equivalent to the given expression:

$\displaystyle 45 = 2x + 5 \hookrightarrow \frac{40}{2} = \frac{2x}{2} \\ \\ \boxed{20 = x}$

8. Both angles are considered supplementary, so turn both expressions into an equation and set it to one hundred eighty degrees:

$\displaystyle 180 = (4x - 15)° + (x + 30)° \hookrightarrow 180° = (15 + 5x)° \hookrightarrow \frac{165}{5} = \frac{5x}{5} \\ \\ \boxed{33 = x}$

7. In this rectangle, segment EO is a segment bisectour, making these angles Complementary Angles. Therefore, set an equation up to find its complement:

$\displaystyle 90° = 65° + m\angle{VOE} \\ \\ \boxed{25° = m\angle{VOE}}$

If an event has a 55% chance of happening in one trial, how do I determine the chances of it happening more than once in 4 trial

aev [14]

The chances of it happening more than once in 4 trials is 13%

<h3>How to determine the number</h3>

From the information given, we have can deduce that;

Probability of 1 trial = 55%

= 55/ 100

Find the ratio

= 0. 55

We are to find the probability of it happening more than once in 4 different trials

If the probability of it happening in one trial is 555 which equals 0. 55

Then the probability of it happening in 1 in 4 trials is given as;

P(1/4 trials) = 1/ 4 × 55%

P(1/4 trials) = 1/ 4 × 0. 55

Put in decimal form

P(1/4 trials) = 0. 25 × 0. 55

P(1/4 trials) = 0. 138

But we have to know the percentage

= 0. 138 × 100

Multiply the values, we have

= 13. 8 %

Thus, the chances of it happening more than once in 4 trials is 13%

A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 3 red marbles, 4 yellow marbles, and 6 green marbles. What is the probabi

alexgriva [62]

Answer: a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red marbles = 3

Number of yellow marbles = 4

Number of green marbles = 6

Total number of marbles = 3 +4 +6 = 13

a) the marble is red?

Probability of getting a red marble = $\dfrac{3}{13}$

b) the marble is not yellow?

Probability of not getting yellow = $\dfrac{3+6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

c) the marble is either red or green?

Probability of getting either red or green = P(red) + P(green) = $\dfrac{3}{13}+\dfrac{6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

d) the marble is neither red nor green?

Probability of getting neither red nor green = P(getting yellow) = $\dfrac{4}{13}$

Hence, a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$
