First, we add everything together, so; 3 + 3 + 4 + 2 = 12. This means every marble has a 8.33% chance of being chosen, however since there are more than others we add those separate percentages together. 

Pink: 25%
Violet: 25%
Yellow: 33.33%
Brown: 16.66%
These are the chances of you getting either color. Since the problem asks what is the probability of finding a violet marble,we just look at the written percentages to see we have a 25% chance of choosing a violet marble.

The next step is to see what is the probability of choosing a pink marble, except we have to change things up a bit. Since we removed 1 marble, that changes ALL the percentages again, so we must rewrite the percentages. 12 - 1 is easily solved as 11, and so this means every marble has a 9.0909091% of being chosen. Let's rewrite the grouped percentages now:

Pink: 27.27%
Violet: 18.18%
Yellow: 36.36%
Brown: 18.18%

Now we see that with one marble removed, and that marble not being pink, we have a 27.27% chance of picking a pink marble.

Your Answer: 25% of Violet first time, 27.27% of Pink second time.

(How To Get Percentages?): Simple, you divide 100 (since whatever number we start out with as long as it claims nothing is missing equal 100%) by whatever number of objects you have. So as an example, if I have 5 objects, 100 / 5 = 20. This means every individual object has a 20% chance of being chosen. But we then arrange everything into whatever groups (in your problems case, colors) and multiply by the amount. So say I have 3 green balls and 2 white balls, 3 x 20 = 60 and 2 x 20 = 40 so I have a 60% of getting a green ball and 40% chance of a white ball.

Hope this helps and I hope even more you learned something :D

Answer:

1/x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rewrite 3x as a difference

x-2/x^2 + 5x-2 - 10

2. Factor out x from the equation, then factor out -2.

x-2/ x+(x+5) - 2(x+5)

3. Factor out x+5 from the expression

x-2/ (x+5)(x-2)

4. Reduce the fraction with x-2

x-2 / (x+5) x-2

1/x+5

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve \:  for \:  r:  \\  =  >   v= \pi {h}^{2}(r -  \frac{h}{3}  ) \\  \\  v=\pi {h}^{2}(r -  \frac{h}{3}  )is \:  equivalent  \: to   \:   {h}^{2}\pi(r -  \frac{h}{3}  ) = v: \\  =  >  {h}^{2}\pi(r -  \frac{h}{3}  ) = v \\  \\ Divide  \: both \:  sides  \: by  \: \pi  {h}^{2} :  \\  =  > r -  \frac{h}{3}  =  \frac{v}{\pi {h}^{2} }  \\  \\ Add \:   \frac{h}{3}  \:  to  \: both \:  sides:  \\  =  > r =  \frac{h}{3}  +  \frac{v}{\pi {h}^{2} }
