Answer: The required probability is 0.26.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that there are 60 red marbles and 40 blue marbles in a box 10 marbles are picked without replacement.
We are to find the probability of selecting 6 red marbles.
Since the marbles are picked up without replacement, so it is a situation of combination.
Let S denote the sample space of the experiment of drawing 10 marbles and E denote the event that 6 marbles are red.
So,

Therefore, the probability of event E is given by

Thus, the required probability is 0.26.

Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming all angle measures are in degrees, the sum of them is 180:
(3x +16) +(4x -15) +(2x +8) = 180
9x +9 = 180 . . . . collect terms
x + 1 = 20 . . . . . . divide by 9
x = 19 . . . . . . . . . .subtract 1
The value of x is 19.
Try to get the fractions with same denominators. Use the LCD system to find equal factors to a common denominator. Then just simply compare it.
*Note: Larger fraction is the greater numerator.*
