There are 12 red marbles and 8 green marbles in a bag. What is the probability of selecting a red

madam [21]

Answer:

The probability of selecting a red marble, not replacing it, and then selecting a green marble from the bag is 24/95

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of red marbles = 12

Number of green marbles = 8

Total number of marbles = 12+8 = 20

Probability of selecting red marble = $\frac{12}{20}$

Since it is the case of no replacement

Remaining marbles = 20-1 = 19

Number of red marbles = 12-1=11

Number of green marbles = 8

Probability of selecting green marble = $\frac{8}{19}$

So, the probability of selecting a red marble, not replacing it, and then selecting a green marble from the bag = $\frac{12}{20} \times \frac{8}{19}=\frac{24}{95}$

Hence the probability of selecting a red marble, not replacing it, and then selecting a green marble from the bag is 24/95

If measure of angle 1 = 2x+6 and measure of angle 2 = 8x+4 where angles 1 and 2 are supplementary, then how much is the actual m

nlexa [21]

Answer:

The actual measure of ∠1 = 40°

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given: ∠1 = 2x+6 and ∠2 = 8x+4

and both angles are supplementary. we need to find the actual measure of ∠1

Supplementary angles: If the angles are supplementary their sum is equal to 180°

In our case ∠1 +∠2 = 180°

2x+6+8x+4=180

Solving the equation to find x, then we can find the actual measure of ∠1

$2x+6+8x+4=180\\10x+10=180\\10x=180-10\\10x=170\\x=170/10\\x=17$

So, value of x = 17

Now, finding actual measure of ∠1 by putting x=17 in equation 2x+6

$\angle1=2(17)+6\\\angle1=34+6\\\angle1=40$

So, the actual measure of ∠1 = 40°
