3 0

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

2a - b : 2a + b = 1 : 2

2a - b = 1

-                         Elimination

2a + b = 2

-b - (b) = -1

-2b = -1

b = 0.5

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

2a + b = 2           Substitution

2a + 0.5 = 2

2a = 1.5

a = 0.75

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

a:b

0.75 : 0.5

or

3/4 : 1/2

Hope this helps!!!

A bin has 5 white balls and k black balls in it, where k is an unknown positive integer. A ball is drawn at random from the bin.
crimeas [40]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: The expected loss is 50 cents, we know that it is more likely to lose than win. It is therefore difficult to get-50, so the overall difference between the two possibilities is 2, 50/200=1/4, and the probability to win is 1/4, and the probability to lose is 3/4. Since (1/4)*3=3/4, the number of black balls is 3 times the number of white balls, so k=15.
