Nicole bought a bag containing assorted hard candies from the local corner store. They were on clearance and she got a good deal

. All the candies are the same size and shape but they are different colors and flavors. There are two blue ones, four red ones, six purple ones, fourteen green ones, and ten orange ones. If the bag is shaken really well to mix the candy in the bag, what is the probability ( as a fraction) that the first candy she pulls out of the bag will not be green?

Answer:

P = \frac{1}{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

2 blue

4 red

6 purple

14 green

There are 26 candies overall.

\frac{2+4+6}{24} =

\frac{12}{24} =

\frac{1}{2}

The probability of her not pulling a green candy is \frac{1}{2} chance

A train travels with a constant speed of 88 km/h. How far can it travel in 3 hours??? PLEASE HELPP
blagie [28]
Since it is traveling at a constant rate of 88 km per hour, if we were to find out what it could travel in 3 hours we would multiply 88 by 3. If done correctly you should get 264. Hopefully this helps you!

Suppose your marginal cost of making a peanut butter and jelly sandwich is constant at $10, but the marginal benefit of eating t
Softa [21]

Answer:

At most 3 sandwiches i would eat at this situation

Step-by-step explanation:

Making a first sandwich has a constant value 10$ but its marginal benefit is 12$. There is a 2$ benefit exist if i eat one.

Making the second one costs 20$ but its marginal benefit is 22$. Still 2$ benefit is exist if i eat the second one also.

Making the third one costs 30$ ant its marginal benefit also 30$. There is a even situation here. Making three sandwiches still an option.

After third one marginal benefit becomes lower than marginal cost of sandwiches.

Let P be the centrold of ASTU, and let SW be a medlan of ASTU. If SW = 3, find SP and PW.
zvonat [6]

Answer:

SP = 2 and PW = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the centroid divides the medians in a 2 : 1 ratio.

Now, in Δ STU, P is the centroid and SW is a median.

So, point P will lie on median SW and will divide the median SW in a 2 : 1 ratio i.e. SP : PW = 2 : 1.

If the length of the median SW is 3 then SP = \frac{3 \times 2}{(1 + 2)}  =2

And similarly PW = \frac{3 \times 1}{(1 + 2)}  =1 (Answer)
