Answer:

C) 160

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion:

$\frac{9}{15}$ = $\frac{x}{400}$

Cross multiply and solve for x:

15x = 3600

x = 240

This means in 400 marbles, 240 are purple.

To find how many are not purple, subtract 240 from 400:

400 - 240

= 160 marbles

So, 160 marbles are not purple

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Total number of chips = 4+ 6 = 10
Number of white chips = 4

Probability of picking a white chip = $\frac{4}{10}= \frac{2}{5}$

This white chip is not replaced back into the bag. This will reduce the number of white chips in the bag by 1 and reduce the total number of chips in the bag by 1.

So, now the total number of chips in the bag = 3 + 6 = 9
Number of white chips in the bag = 3

Probability of picking a white chip = $\frac{3}{9}= \frac{1}{3}$

Thus, the probability of picking two white chips will be = $\frac{2}{5}* \frac{1}{3}= \frac{2}{15}$

Therefore, option B gives the correct answer.

Miranda and cyndi start hiking from the same point. miranda hikes at a heading of , or due west, and cyndi hikes at a heading of

igomit [66]

They are both 6.9 miles apart after one hour if they both hike 4 miles/hour

The correct option is (B)

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

In terms of geometry, the triangle is a three-sided polygon with three edges and three vertices. The triangle's interior angles add up to 180°.

<h3>According to the given information:</h3>

Miranda and Cyndi start hiking from the same point. Miranda hikes at a heading of 270° or due west, and Cyndi hikes at a heading of 30°

<h3>From the isosceles triangle:</h3>

h = 4sin30

h = 4(1/2)

h = 2 miles

<h3>From Pythagoras theorem:</h3>

x² = 4² - h² = 4² - 2²

x = √12

x = 3.46 miles

Total distance = 2×3.46 = 6.9 miles

Thus, they are both 6.9 miles apart after one hour if they both hike 4 miles/hour option (B) 6.9 miles is correct.
