A jar contains only black and white marbles. When one marble is drawn at random, the probability that it is white is 1/3. After

20 black marbles were added to the jar, the probability of drawing a white was 1/5. How many marbles were in the jar originally?

What is the surface area of the triangular prism (Look at image)

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

$\Large \boxed{\sf 384 \ m^2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area ⇒ area of 2 triangles + area of 3 rectangles

$(8 \times 3 \times 0.5 \times 2)+(20 \times 5 \times 2+20 \times 8)=384$

A. (1.34)(5.46) = (1.76)(x)

Alja [10]

We are given an equation with an unknown variable x. We can find the value of x by dividing both sides by 1.76, as this will leave only x on the right hand side of the equation and its value on the left hand side, as shown below:

$(1.34)(5.46)=1.76(x) \\ \\ 
 \frac{(1.34)(5.46)}{1.76} = \frac{1.76(x)}{1.76} \\ \\ 
 \frac{(1.34)(5.46)}{1.76} =x \\ \\ 
4.16=x$

Thus solving the given equation, we get x =4.16, rounded of to nearest hundredth.

Use a measuring tape to find the circumference of five circular objects.Then measure distance across each item to find its diame

MAXImum [283]

Basically
Circumference = 2 * pie * radius
To get the radius u need to measure the circles distance. For example I measured a circular mirror and the distance was 10cm. This is the diameter. To get the radius I’ll divide by 2 because the radius is from the centre of the circle to the edge. So, 10 divided by 2 = 5cm. The radius is 5cm. Now,
Circumference = 2 * pie * r
r = 5. Pie = 3.14
Circumference = 2 * 3.14 * 5
= The answer
****pie is always 3.14
I hope you understood

aev [14]

Answer:

Total no.of possible outcomes = 200 × 4 = 800

No.of favourable outcomes = 200 × 1 = 200

P (E) = no.of favourable outcomes / total no.of possible outcomes

= 200/800

= 1/4
