So the bag contains all the color marbles, which means you have to add all the marbles together..
8+12+16= 36
there are 8 green marbles from all the marbles together, that forms a fraction of 
8 / 36,that fraction can be simplified by dividing both 8 and 36 by 4
looking like 
8/4 over 36/4
which will give you 

2/9.!! That is the probability of a person reaching into the bad and randomly selecting a green marble.! Hope this helps!

8/36 because:
8+16+12=36
and if you simplify it the answer will be 4/18 2/9

Sonbull [250]

First we find the slope between the two given points.

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (-5 - 2)/(7 - 6) = -7/1 = -7

Now we use the slope-intercept equation of a line.

y = mx + b

We use one point as x and y, and we solve for b.

2 = -7(6) + b

2 = -42 + b

b = 44

The equation is

y = -7x + 44

Answer: f(x) = -7x + 44

How are problems like these solved
Flura [38]

the angles on the opposite sides of a quadrilateral touching the circumference adds up to 180 degrees

so,

(21x-2) + (38x +5) = 180

21x+38x −2+5=180

59x+3=180

59x=177

x=3

A shelf is designed so it will fit in a 90º corner between two walls. The shelf has dimensions, rounded to the nearest tenth, as
den301095 [7]

Answer:

Yes, it will fit snugly in a 90º corner

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, we simply need to check if the given sides of the shelf is right-angled.

So, we have:

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{242

Side\ 1 = Side\ 2 = 11

To check for right-angle triangle, we make use of:

Side\ 1^2 + Side\ 2^2 = Hypotenuse^2

This gives:

11^2 + 11^2 = \sqrt{242}^2

121 + 121 = \sqrt{242}^2

242 = \sqrt{242}^2

242 = 242

This shows that the given sides of the shelf is a right-angled triangle.

Hence, it will fit the wall

Volume of a cylinder with a height of 8 and a width of 8
tangare [24]

Answer:

I am only in like 5th grade, but I'll do my best to answer this.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder: πr^2h where "r" is the radius and "h" is the height

π * 4^2 because since the width is 8, half of that is the radius

π * 4^2 * 8 because you still have to multiply that by the height to find the full space inside

= π * 4^2 * 8

V ≈ 402.12 (rounded to two decimals)
