Shonna skateboarded 40 minutes on Monday, 80 minutes on Tuesday and 60 minutes on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total time spent on skate boarding = 3 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes

3 hours = 60*3 = 180 minutes

Time spent on skate boarding = 180 minutes

Let,

Time spent on skate boarding on Monday = x

Time spent on Tuesday = 2x

Time spent on Wednesday = \frac{x+2x}{2} = \frac{3x}{2}

According to given statement;

x+2x+\frac{3}{2}=180

Taking LCM on left side;

\frac{2x+4x+3x}{2}=180\\\frac{9x}{2}=180

Multiplying both sides by 2

2*\frac{9x}{2}=180*2\\9x=360

Dividing both sides by 9

\frac{9x}{9}=\frac{360}{9}\\x=40

Time spent on Monday = x = 40 minutes

Time spent on Tuesday = 2x = 2(40) = 80 minutes

Time spent on Wednesday = \frac{3x}{2} = \frac{3(40)}{2} =\frac{120}{2} = 60\ minutes

Shonna skateboarded 40 minutes on Monday, 80 minutes on Tuesday and 60 minutes on Wednesday.

What is 1/4x+1+3/4x-2/3-1/2x
Aleks04 [339]

Answer: 1/2x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1/4(x) + 3/4(x) - 1/2(x) + 1 - 2/3

Step 1: Combine like terms

1/4(x) and 3/4(x) have a common denominator of 4.  This means that you can add them together.

1/4(x) + 3/4(x) = 4/4(x) = x

Step 2: Find the common denominator of x in step 1 and combine like terms  

x - 1/2(x) = 2/2(x) - 1/2(x)

Now that we have the common denominator of x, we can combine like terms.  Its the same as adding or subtracting fractions without a variable.  In this case, you must subtract 1/2(x) from 2/2(x).

2/2(x) - 1/2(x) = 1/2(x)

Step 3: Find the common denominator of the constants and combine like terms

1 - 2/3 = 3/3 - 2/3

Now combine like terms.  Simply subtract 2/3 from 3/3.

3/3 - 2/3 = 1/3

Step 4: Write the simplified equation

1/2(x) + 1/3

This is the answer

If four blue marbles and eight non-blue marbles make a probability of 0.33, how many non-blue marbles do you need to combine wit
den301095 [7]

The number of non-blue marbles you need to combine with the blue marbles to achieve a probability of 0.1 is 28.

<h3>How many non-blue marbles are needed?</h3>

Probability determines the odds that a random event would happen. The probability the event occurs is 1 and the probability that the event does not occur is 0.

The more likely the event is to happen, the closer the probability value would be to 1. The less likely it is for the event not to happen, the closer the probability value would be to zero.

Probability of picking a blue marble = number of blue marble / total number of marbles

4 / (4 + 8)

4/12 = 0.33

The number of non-blue marbles needed = ( 4 / 0.1) - 12

40 - 12 = 28
