Well, there are actually millions of colors in the rainbow, (every color that the human eye can see), but I do understand the question you're asking:

 

-- When Sara is ready to make her first selection, there are seven things with different colors in the pot, and one of them is red.

The probability that she picks the red one is ( 1 / 7 ).

The question says "with replacement". That means that after she selects it and looks at it, she puts it back in the pot. So . . .

-- When she's ready to make her second selection, the same seven things with different colors are still in the pot.  One of them is orange.

The probability that she picks the orange one is ( 1 / 7 ).

-- The probability of BOTH selections being successful (the color she wants) is

(1/7) x (1/7) .

That's <em>(1/49)</em>, which is about  <em>2.04 percent</em> .

Solve the equations.<br> a. (x − 2)^2 = 9<br> b. 3(x − 2)^2 = 9<br> c. 6 = 24(x + 1)^2
seropon [69]

Answer: a) x = 5 or -1 b) x = √3+2

c) x = -1/2 or -3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) (x − 2)² = 9

First step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square

√ (x − 2)² = √9

x-2 = +-3

x = +3+2

x = 5 and;

x = -3+2

x = -1

x = 5 or -1

b) 3(x-2)² = 9

First we divide both sides by 3 to get;

(x-2)² = 9/3

(x-2)² = 3

Second step is to take the square root of both sides to eliminate the square

√(x-2)² = √3

x-2 = √3

x = √3+2

c) 6 = 24(x+1)²

Dividing both sides by 24, we have

6/24 = (x+1)²

1/4 = (x+1)²

Taking the square root of both sides we have

√1/4 = √(x+1)²

= +-1/2 = x+1

x = +1/2-1 = -1/2 and;

x = -1/2-1 = -3/2

x = -1/2 or -3/2

Bumek [7]

Answer:

Part A: Histogram :)

Part B: Described below! :)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

A histogram is the best choice because it can show the numbers for multiple categories in a quick and easy manner :)

Part B:

The x axis will have the categories of quiz scores! The y axis will show how many students got that score.

We then put the categories from smallest to largest along the x axis. We will also put the numbers that go with the categories above the category!

Done! you have made your histogram!

Have an amazing day!!

Please rate and mark brainliest!!
