Option B

Probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is \frac{32}{301}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that a bag containing 12 yellow marbles, 16 red marbles, and 15 green marbles

So total number of marbles = 12 + 16 + 15 = 43

To find: probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble if the first marble is not replaced

<em><u>The probability of an event is given as:</u></em>

probability =\frac{\text { number of favorable outcomes }}{\text { total number of possible outcomes }}$

<em><u>probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble if the first marble is not replaced:</u></em>

First we pick up yellow marble.

Number of favorable outcomes = 12 yellow marbles

Total number of possible outcomes = 43 marbles

\text{ probability} = \frac{12}{43}

Now we have to pick red marble

But first marble is not replaced

So we have 43 - 1 = 42 number of possible outcomes

Favorable outcomes = 16 red marbles

\text{ probability} = \frac{16}{42}

So probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is:

\text[ probability } = \frac{12}{43} \times \frac{16}{42} = \frac{32}{301}

Thus probability of drawing yellow marble followed by a red marble is \frac{32}{301}

Answer:

<em><u>A:</u></em>

<em><u>Square</u></em>

<em><u>Rectangle</u></em>

<em><u>Parallelogram</u></em>

<em><u>Quadrilateral</u></em>

<em><u>Rhombus</u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

<em><u></u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

All sides and angles are equal so it is a square

All angles are 90 degrees so it is a rectangle (eliminate C)

Opposing angles and side lengths are congruent so it is a parallelogram (eliminate D)

It has 4 sides so it is a quadrilateral (eliminate B)

Since all of the other answers are eliminated you don't necessarily need to prove that is is a rhombus, but it is good practice.

Opposing sides are congruent so it is a rhombus.

How much does 1 can of soda cost if you get a
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Each can of soda costs about 33 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just a simple division problem, and you can find the answer by dividing the cost of the sodas by the total number of sodas, so 4/12. If you complete that problem, the answer is 0.33 repeating, and since it asks you to round to the nearest hundredth, the answer is just 0.33. It is in dollar amounts, so the answer is 33 cents.
