26 out of 130 were marked.

Divide 26 by 130:

26/130 = 0.20

20% of the bass caught were tagged.

Now divide the total amount caught and tagged by that percentage:

258 / 0.20 = 1,290

There are 1,290 bass in the lake.

A bag contains 8 black beads and 4 white beads. If 2 beads are drawn at random, what is the probability that both beads are blac
maria [59]

Answer:

14/33

Step-by-step explanation:

The total amount of beads is 8+4 = 12.  8 of these are black beads, so that is what we want, so 8/12 or 2/3.  For the second one, one black bead is already taken so 8-1 = 7 are left and for the total 12 - 1 = 11 are left, so 7/11.  Multiply this by 2/3 and we get 14/33.

A type of green paint is made by mixing 2 cups of yellow with 3.5 cups of blue.
aliya0001 [1]

Answer: Use 1.75 cups of blue and 1 cup of yellow

Step-by-step explanation:

The given problem can be placed in the category of ratios and proportions. There is a ratio of color mixing which contains the proportion of two colors i.e blue and yellow. When we use 2 cups of yellow with 3.5 cups of yellow then we get green color so if we mix half of their amounts then we can get less or simply half amount of color too. Hence adding 1 cup of yellow and 1.75 cup of blue will give us small amount in result.
