Answer: 1/18
Step-by-step explanation:
9 total marbles
2 red
so the first time he picks it would be a 2/9 chance of the marble being red
the second time there would be 8 total marbles and 2 red, so it would be a 2/8 or 1/4 chance.
the probability is found by doing 2/9*1/4 which equals 2/36 or 1/18.
Answer:
4(8x-3.2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) 28.4 miles per gallon
2) 34 miles per gallon
3) the red car
Step-by-step explanation:
Blue car:
Travels 35 1/2 miles on 1 1/4 gallons of gasoline
Red car:
Travels 27 1/5 miles on 4/5 gallons of gasoline
We want to know the unit rate for miles per hour, and to do it we have to divide the miles they travel by the gallons each car uses:
Blue car:
(35 1/2) / (1 1/4) = 28.4 miles per gallon
Red car:
(27 1/5) / (4/5) = 34 miles per gallon
The red car travels greater distance with 1 gallon of gasoline {and thats about it!}
Answer:
(0, -6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following systems of linear equations;
3x - 2y = 12 ...... equation 1
16x - 4y = 24 ........ equation 2
We would solve for the solution using the elimination method;
Multiplying eqn 1 by 2, we have;
2 * (3x - 2y = 12)
6x - 4y = 24
16x - 4y = 24
Subtracting the two equations, we have;
(6x - 16x) + (-4y -[-4y]) = (24 - 24)
-10x - 0 = 0
-10x = 0
x = -0/10 = 0
Next, we would find the value of y;
3x - 2y = 12
3(0) - 2y = 12
0 - 2y = 12
-2y = 12
y = -12/2
y = -6
Check:
3x - 2y = 12
3(0) - 2(-6) = 12
0 - (-12) = 12
12 = 12
