Answer:

24 purple jelly beans

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told in the question that;

Lucas had a mix of red and purple jelly beans. There were 2 red jelly beans for every 3 purple jelly beans.

The results in a ratio

2:3

Where 2 represented red jelly beans

3 represented purple jelly beans

Total number of jelly beans = 40 jelly beans.

The number of purple jelly beans that we have =

3/( 2 + 3) × 40

= 3/5 × 40

= 3 × 8

= 24.

Hence, there are 24 purple jelly beans in the bag.

A single card is drawn from a 52 standard deck. Find the conditional probability that the card is a heart given that it's a jack
MakcuM [25]
You can use the formula for conditional probability as Puzzling did. However in this problem it is easier just to restrict yourself and enumerate the cases that are left. 

<span>There are 4 jacks. One of them is a heart. So the probability is 1/4. </span>

<span>If you want to look at what the formula for conditional probability does, it adjusts your probability by restricting the "universe". </span>

<span>P(heart and jack)/P(jack) </span>
<span>= (1/52)/(4/52) = 1/4</span>

Help!!! I don’t understand how to do this
Olegator [25]

Answer:

85 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of supplementary angles=180

155+ angle in the triangle=180

angle=180-155

angle=25 degrees

the sum of angles of triangle=180

25+60+x=180

85+x(inside triangle)=180

x=180-85

x=95

angle with (?):

the sum of supplementary angles=180

95+(?)=180

(?)=180-95

(?)=85 (An exterior angle of a triangle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles)
