Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the initial weight of Porky the pig.
Porky the pig weighs 1,125 lbs less than Kobe the Cow. This means that the initial weight of Kobe the cow is
x + 1125
After each gains 50lbs. Kobe the Cow will weigh ten times as much as porky the pig. This means that
(x + 1125) + 50 = 10(x + 50)
x + 1125 + 50 = 10x + 500
10x - x = 1125 + 50 - 500
9x = 675
x = 675/9
x = 75
Porky's current weight is
75 + 50 = 125 lbs
Kobe's current weight is
(75 + 1125) + 50
= 1250 lbs
Answer:
3x-15=6
Step-by-step explanation:
A.

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.

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 />

Chance of selecting two white marbles:

<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!
