Here you have a system of 2 equations and 2 unknowns. An easy way to solve this type is to isolate one of the variables.
12a + 2b = 8
2b = 8 - 12a
b =

b = 4 - 6a
Now plug 4 - 6a into equation 1 to solve for a.
a + 5(4 - 6a) = 19
a + 20 - 30a = 19
-29a = -1
a = 1/29 (answer)
Now plug a into the equation for b
b= 4 - 6(1/29)
b= 110/29 (answer)
Answer:
0.66
Step-by-step explanation:
1.00 - 0.34 = 0.66
The probability of certainty is 100%=1
If Probability(p)=0.34
then
0.34+Probability=1
Probability(!p)=1−0.34=0.66
3/8 as a decimal equals=
3÷8=0.375
3/8 as percent equals=
0.375= 37.5%

1) first pick red 5/9 blue 4/9
2) second pick when red has been picked red now becomes 4/8, blue stays 4/8
2) Second pick when blue has been picked blue now becomes 3/8, red stays 5/8
Mind you, you only need both different colours so:
first pick red 5/9 x sec pick blue 4/8 = 20/72
and first pick blue 4/9 x sec pick red 5/8 = 20/72
add both up 20/72 + 20/72 = 40/72 = 5/9
