Answer:

0.1052 = 10.52%

Step-by-step explanation:

The question missing the number of red marbles, it should be 5.  

You select 2 marble randomly without replacement. The word without replacement show that you pick the marble at different times, so the order is important. There are 5 red, 8 green, 4 blue, 3 yellow which means the total marble is 8+4+3= 16 marbles. The chance to pick red marble then a green marble will be:

5/20 * 8/19= 2/19= 0.1052 = 10.52%

Esther drove to work in the morning at an average speed of 45 miles per hour. She returned home in the evening along the same ro
nydimaria [60]
The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.

45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x

Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.

Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.

Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.

45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Which of the following statements best describes the relationship between a line and a point in a plane? exactly one plane conta
Alexandra [31]

Answer: (b) exactly one plane contains a given line and a point not on the line.


Step-by-step explanation: The basic postulates of geometry are very-well known to all of us. For example-

(i) The intersection of two lines determines a point,

(ii) Two parallel lines give result to a plane,

(iii) A line and a point not on the line determines a plane, etc...

Thus, with the help of the third point, we can easily arrive at the conclusion that a given line and a point not lying on the line is contained in a plane. For example- see the attached figure, AB is a line and P is any point not on the line. They both contained in the plane ABC.

Hence, the correct option is (b).
