Answer:

P(blue)=37.5\%

Step-by-step explanation:

-Probability is the likelihood of an event occurring.

-The total number of events is:

Total=3+6+5+2\\\\=16

-The total number of blue events is:

Blue=6

#Probability of a blue is thus calculated as:

P(Blue)=\frac{Blue}{Total}\\\\=\frac{6}{16}\\\\=0.375\\\\=37.5\%

Hence, the probability of choosing a blue marble at random is 37.5%

<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2><h2>b. The probability of choosing a blue marble is blue/total.The number of blue marbles is 6, and the total number of marbles is 16 (3 + 6 + 5 + 2 = 16).Therefore, the probability of choosing a blue marble is 16/16 = 3/8.</h2><h2><u>Thank you </u></h2><h2><u>sunshinemadison101</u></h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 9 to both sides.

6b-9+9=-87+9\\6b=-78

Divide both sides by 6

Ralph’s average score for 5 tests was 82. on four of the tests his scores were 85, 73, 92, 66. what was the fifth test score?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

94

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be denoted by the variable, x. Also note that, the average can be found by adding all values together and dividing by the amount of values there are.

Set the equation:

(85 + 73 + 92 + 66 + x)/5 = 82

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Simplify first by combining like terms, and then do the opposite of PEMDAS.

PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions.

Combine like terms:

(85 + 73 + 92 + 66 + x)/5 = 82

(316 + x)/5 = 82

Next, isolate the x, by multiplying 5 to both sides of the equation:

(316 + x)/5 * 5 = (82) * 5

316 + x = 82 * 5

316 + x = 410

Lastly, subtract 316 from both sides of the equation:

x + 316 = 410

x + 316 (-316) = 410 (-316)

x = 410 - 316

x = 94

94 is the final test score.
