A girl is 18 years old and her brother is a third of her age. When the girl is 36 what would be the age of the brother?
ale4655 [162]
First we need to calculate how many years her brother has when she is 18. As text says he is:
18/3 = 6 years old

Now when she gains another 18 years (36-18=18) he will also gain those 18 years

When she is 36 he will have 6+18=24 years old

Answer is 24.

A bag contains 2 white marbles and 7 purple marbles. Two marbles are drawn at random. One marble is drawn and not replaced. Then
Masja [62]
A.
\frac{7purple}{9total} *  \frac{2white}{8total}  \\  \frac{14}{72}  \\ =0.194
The denominator of the second number goes down one because you aren't replacing the initial marble pulled, making the amount of marbles in the bag go down, but not affecting the white count because you pulled a purple marble.
b.
\frac{2white}{9total} *  \frac{1white}{8total}  \\  \frac{2}{72}  \\ =0.278
The same can be said about the denominator for this problem, but not the numerator. The numerator must go down one number as well, because you already chose one white marble, taking one of the white marbles out of the bag, leaving you with one solitary, white marble.
c.
Chance of selecting two purple marbles:
<u />\frac{7purple}{9total} *  \frac{6purple}{8total}  \\  \frac{42}{72}  \\ =0.583
Chance of selecting two white marbles:
\frac{2white}{9total} * \frac{1white}{8total} \\ \frac{2}{72} \\ =0.278
<u>Chance of selecting two purple</u> vs. <em>Chance of Selecting 2 white:</em>
<u>0.583</u>><em>0.278</em>.
It is more likely to select 2 purple marbles.

Hope this helps!
