A bag contains 10 marbles: 3 are green, 2 are red, and 5 are blue. Jose chooses a marble at random, and without putting it back,

chooses another one at random. What is the probability that the first marble is red and the second is blue? Write your answer as a fraction in simplest form.

We know that
g=3
r=2
b=5
total marbies=g+r+b------> 3+2+5----> 10

a) <span>probability that the first marble is red
P(red)=r/total marbies------------> 2/10-----> 1/5

b) </span><span>probability that the second marble is blue
in this case total marbles-------> 9
P(blue)=b/total marbles----------> 5/9

c) </span><span>the probability that the first marble is red and the second is blue
(1/5)*(5/9)=1/9

the answer is
1/9</span>

What is the equation for the line? enter your answer in the box
Igoryamba
To get the equation of the line, you need two points that belong to this line.
From the given graph, we can choose any two points: (0,-4) and (-2,0)

The general for of the linear straight line is:
y = mx + c where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

First, we will calculate the slope using the following rule:
slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
slope (m) = (0--4) / (-2-0) = 4/-2 = -2
The equation of the line now is: y = -2x + c

Then, we will get the value of the c. To do so, we will choose any point and substitute in the equation. I will choose the point (0,-4)
y = -2x + c
-4 = -2(0) + c
c = -4

Based on the above calculations, the equation of the line is:
y = -2x - 4

10. The sum of two numbers is 13 more than twice the first number. Their difference is 14 less than the second number. Find each
Lynna [10]

The sum of two numbers is 13 more than twice the first number:

x + y = 2x +13

x - y = y - 14

solve the system of equations:

x - (x + 13) = (x +13) - 14

x = -12

y = 1

What is the recursive rule for the sequence 2, -1, 1/2 , -1/4
Helga [31]

Answer:

a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}

a_1=2

Step-by-step explanation:

The recursive rule is a term defined in terms of other terms in the sequence.

The is a geometric sequence because it has a common ratio.

The common ratio can be found by dividing a term by previous term.

For example, all of these are equal:

\frac{-1}{2}

\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{-1}

\frac{\frac{-1}{4}}{\frac{1}{2}}

They are all equal to \frac{-1}{2}.

So we are saying:

\frac{\text{term}}{\text{previous term}}}=\frac{-1}{2}

More formally:

\frac{a_n}{a_{n-1}}=\frac{-1}{2}.

Multiply both sides by a_{n-1}:

a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}

When doing recursive form, you need to state a term of the sequence (or more depending on the recursive form you have).

So the first term is 2.

So the full thing for the answer is:

a_n=\frac{-1}{2}a_{n-1}

a_1=2

the volume of a box is represented by the roduct (x^2+5x+6) times (x+4). Give the polynomial that represents the length of the b
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x²+5x+6=x²+3x+2x+6=x(x+3)+2(x+3)=(x+3)(x+2)

so Volume=(x+3)(x+2)(x+4)

V=lwh

one of the factors is the length.
