There is a large bag with marbles in it. There are 23 red ones, 16 black ones, 5 blue ones, 17 orange ones, 4 white ones, and 15

purple ones. Juanita reaches in without looking and selects one marble. What is the probability that it is purple?

That would be 15/80=3/16 so it would be 3/16 or unlikely because it is less than half of 16

There are 81 red, blue and yellow

wel

Step-by-step explanation:

Here Given

Total counters = 81

red counters are 9 more than the yellow ones.

And Yellow counter = blue counter

So let the Yellow counter be x and as blue counter and yellow counter are same then blue counter will be also x

And by the question

Red counter = 9 + x

Now

9 + x + x + x = 81

9 + 3x = 81

3x = 81 - 9

3x = 72

x = 72 / 3

Therefore x = 24

Now

Red counters = 9 + 24 = 33

Blue counters = 24

Yellow counters = 24

Hope it helped :)

If cosθ=2/3 find cscθ using identities. This is in quad. 1.

laiz [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

cos θ = 2/3

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf {cos \; \theta = \dfrac{Base}{Hypotenuse} } \\$

Hence, base = 2 units and hypotenuse = 3 units.

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { H^2 = B^2 + P^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = H^2 - B^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = (3)^2 - (2)^2} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf { P^2 = 9- 4} \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\bf { P = \sqrt{5}} \\$

Now, we know that :

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\sf {cosec \; \theta = \dfrac{Hypotenuse}{Perpendicular} } \\$

$\quad \twoheadrightarrow\bf{cosec \; \theta = \dfrac{3}{\sqrt{5}} } \\$

Therefore, the required answer is 3/√5.

The zeros for f(x)=x^4-4x^3-9x^2+36x are

Mrrafil [7]

X^4 - 4x^3 - 9x^2 + 36x = 0
x(x^3 - 4x^2 - 9x + 36) = 0
x(x^2(x - 4) - 9(x - 4) = 0
x(x + 3)(x - 3)(x - 4) = 0

the zeroes are -3, 0, 3, 4 Answer

Josh rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of$14.99,and there was an additional charge of81cent for each mile driven.

BigorU [14]

$117.05
- $ 14.99
-------------
$102.46 left

Divide 102.46 by 0.81, and you get 126, which makes it 126 miles.

Hope this helps!

The circumference of a circle is 704 cm,find its area

Digiron [165]

The circumferince of the circle is 2πR ;
The area of the circle is π $R^{2}$ ;
Then, 2πR = 704 ;
R = 352 / π ;
π $R^{2}$ = π × ( 352 / π )^2 = ( 352^2) / π = 123904 / π ≈ 39459.87 ≈ 39460 cm^2 ;
