Answer:

16/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number  of green marbles = 9

Number of White marbles = 17

Total number of marbles = 26

Probability of picking a white marble = 17/26

When a white marble is picked without replacement,

Probability of picking another white marble after first picking a white marble

= 16/25

= 0.64

This is because the total number of marbles would have reduced from 26 to 25 and the number of white marbles from 17 to 16.

If a = 4 and b = 2, what is the value of the following expression?
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

D) 30

Step-by-step explanation:

3(a + 4b)-6 = 3 ( 4 + 4*2) - 6

                  = 3( 4+8 ) - 6

                  = 3*12 - 6

                  = 36 - 6 =30

Find the coordinates of the other endpoint when you are given the midpoint (point M) and one of the endpoints (point P)
satela [25.4K]
The known endpoint is P = (-16,0)

Let Q = (x,y) be the other endpoint. It is unknown for now.

Looking at the x coordinates of P and Q, we see that they are -16 and x respectively. Adding these values up gives -16+x. Dividing that result by 2 gives (-16+x)/2. This result is exactly equal to the midpoint x coordinate, which is the x coordinate of M (0). 

So we have this equation (-16+x)/2 = 0. Let's solve for x

(-16+x)/2 = 0
2*(-16+x)/2 = 2*0
-16+x = 0
x-16 = 0
x-16+16 = 0+16
x = 16

Therefore the x coordinate of point Q is 16.

------------------------------------

Let's do something similar for the y coordinates.

The y coordinates of P and Q are 0 and y respectively. Add them up and divided by 2, then set the result equal to -16 (y coordinate of midpoint M) getting this equation (0+y)/2 = -16

Solve for y

(0+y)/2 = -16
y/2 = -16
2*y/2 = 2*(-16)
y = -32

The y coordinate of point Q is -32

------------------------------------

The point Q goes from (x,y) to (16, -32)

Final Answer: (16, -32)

lara [203]

Answer:

C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

A number used to multiply a variable. Example: 6z means 6 times z, and "z" is a variable, so 6 is a coefficient.
