14/99
Select 1 marble; the chance that it is white is 4/12. Select a 2nd marble; the chance that it is white is 3/11. Select a 3rd; the chance it is white is 2/10. Select a 4th; the chance it is red is 8/9. Select a 5th; the chance it is red is 7/8. The chance of getting this specific set of 5 marbles in this order is (4/12)×(3/11)×(2/10)×(8/9)×(7/8)=(2×7)/(11×10×9).
This specific set could occur in the permutation of 5 things taken 5 at a time where 3 are identical (white), and the other 2 are also identical (red). The formula for this is 5!/(3!2!)=10.
Combining the chance of getting white, white, white, red, red with the number of ways 3 white and 2 red could have been distributed in the draw of 5 marbles gives the answer:
{(2×7)/(11×10×9)}×10=14/99
A similar process will show that the chance of getting 5 red marbles is 7/99; 4 white and 1 red is 1/99; 2 white and 3 red is 42/99; and 1 white and 4 red is 35/99.
Answer:
a. 5 represents the number of calories that come from other ingredients.
b. Neither 8 nor 3 satisfy the given equation, so neither 8 nor 3 can be the solution to the equation.
c. <em>c = 5.5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the equation:
Where 
represents the grams of carbohydrates
27 is the total number of calories that are received by the granola bite.
4 is the number of calories from 1 gram of carbohydrates and
5 is the number of calories that are received from other ingredients.
Answer of Part a:
5 is the number of calories that are received from other ingredients.
Part b:
Let us take left hand side (LHS) and put values of c = 8 and 3 one by one.
So, LHS becomes:
4 \times 8 + 5 = 37 
4 \times 3 + 5 = 17
So, Priya is correct that neither 8 or 3 could be solution.
Part c:
So, solution to the equation is: <em>c = 5.5</em>
Answer: 2.
Step-by-step explanation: Both lines intersect each other 2 times.
