Answer:1/19

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red balls: 5

Number of green balls: 6

Number of yellow balls: 9

Total number of balls= 5+6+9= 20

Let probability of red balls = Pr(red balls)

PR(red balls)= 5/20

Hence probability of picking first ball as red = 5/20

Probability of picking second ball without replacing the first ball:

This implies that by picking second ball to be red, the number of red ball would decrease by 1. Also the total number of balls would also decrease by 1 because it isn't replaced.

PR(2nd ball) = 4/19

Pr(1st ball red and 2nd ball red)= 5/20 * 4/19

=(5*4)/(20×19)

20/(20/19)

= 1/19

BRAINLIEST ANSWER!! ASAP<br><br> 3(x+1)+6=-9<br> PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW YOU GOT THE ANSWER
Kryger [21]

Answer:

x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

use distributive property on the () and times x and 1 by three

then you subtract 6 from both sides

then subtract three from both sides

then divide both sides by 3

your work would look like this:

3(x+1)+6=-9

3x+3+6=-9

3x+3=-15

3x=-18

x=-6

Hope this helps!
