A bag contains 3 white marbles and 6 black marbles. You pick out a marble, record its color, and put the marble back in the bag.
VARVARA [1.3K]
24 times you'd theoretically draw a black marble.
There is 9 marbles in the bag. Out of the 9, 6 are black so you have a \frac{6}{9} chance to draw a black marble. \frac{6}{9} multiplied my 36 is 24.(For this short cut, you multiply the favorable event's probability by the number of trials.)

Two numbers are in a ratio of 5:4. Their sum is 720. Find the bigger number.
alexgriva [62]
So the numbers are x and y
x:y=5:4
x/y=5/4
this means that x is worth 5 units and y is worth 4 units so
x:y=5:4, therefore it can be represented by
x:y=5z:4z
we know that they add to 720
720=5z+4z
add like terms
720=9z
divide by 9
80=z
multiply by 4
320

80=z
mutipply by 5
400

the numbers are 400 and 320
