A bag contains only red and blue marbles. Yasmine takes one marble at random from the bag. The probability that she takes a red

marble is 1 in 5. Yasmine returns the marble to the bag and adds five more red marbles to the bag. The probability that she takes one red marble at random is now 1 in 3. How many red marbles were originally in the bag?

There was one red marble because it said that the probability of choosing a red marble is 1/5 so the other marbles are blue.

What is the ratio 16 to 40 written as a fraction in lowest terms? plz help 50 points
Luda [366]

Answer:- \frac{2}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

The given ration is 16 :40

In fraction, the above ratio can be written as : \frac{16}{40}

To write the above fraction in lowest terms, we need to divide the numerator and the denominator by the greatest common divisor.

Since, 16=2\times8\\40=5\times8, Hence, 8 is the greatest common divisor of 16 and 40.

Now, divide the numerator and denominator by 8, we get

\frac{16}{40}=\frac{2}{5}

If the ramp will be 3 feet above the ground and have a 4 foot Base , How long will the ramp be?
FinnZ [79.3K]

Answer:

5 feet long

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Pythagorean Theorem, a^2 + b^2 = c^2  where "a" and "b" are the two legs of the right triangle and "c" is the hypotenuse.

We are trying to find the part that is at an angle, which is "c". So if we know "a" is "3 and "b" is 4, we can plug the values into the equation.

3^2 + 4^2 = c^2       plug in the values

9  +  16 = c^2           simply the two squared values

25 = c^2                   add the two values

5 = c                          take the square root of both sides

c = 5                          switch the values
