5 red, 3 yellow, and 2 blue....for a total of 10 marbles
P(first one being blue) = 2/10 which reduces to 1/5
not replaced
P(second one is blue) = 1/9...because u already pick a blue, meaning there is only 1 left, and there is one less marble, so there is a total of 9 marbles.
P(both events happening) = 1/5 * 1/9 = 1/45 <==
0.433 is already rounded to the hundredths so to round it to the nearest tenths, remove the last number.
Your answer is 0.43
Answer:
Consider this: factors that are the same that are in the numerator and denominator of a fraction cancel out.
e.g. 20/30 = [2(10)]/[3(10)] = 2/3 This is because the 10 present in the numerator exactly equals the 10 present in the denominator.
We can use the above principle for these types of problems!
If the projectile is fired at 422 mi/hr, and we want to convert this speed into m/s, we just need to go through the following process:
422 mi/hr * 1610m/1mi * 1hr/60min * 1min/60s = 189 m/s
Step-by-step explanation:
All the numbers in the first equation have a common factor of 2. Removing that gives
.. x +4y = 6
making it easy to solve for x
.. x = 6 -4y
My choice would be to solve for x using the first equation.

On second thought, it might actually be easier to solve either equation for 8y. That term then directly substitutes into the other equation (equivalent to adding the two equations).
.. 8y = 3x -11 . . . . . from the second equation
.. 2x +(3x -11) = 12 . . . substituting into the first equation
.. 5x = 23 . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, add 11 (what you would get by adding the equations in the first place)
.. x = 4.6
.. y = (3*4.6 -11)/8 = 0.35
