B is the answer hope I help
5 7/8 is the answer to the problem
The numbers are "x" and "y";
Therefore, we can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=24 ⇒x=24-y
x/y=5
solve this problem by substitution method.
(24-y)/y=5
24-y=5y
-y-5y=-24
-6y=-24
y=-24/-6=4
x=24-y
x=24-4
x=20
Answer: the numer are: 20 and 4
F(x)= y
this is the equation that explains the problem<span />
Answer:
0.0455
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>The formula for calculator probability is
</u>
# of favorable outcomes / # of possible outcomes
<u>The total number of marbles in the bag: </u>
7+3+2=12
<u>Probability of the first marble being blue:</u>
3/12
<u>Probability of the second marble being blue:</u>
2/11 -- 2 because only 2 blue marbles left after drawing the first one out, 11 because after taking the first marble out, we have 11 marbles left in the bag
<u>Formula for both events happening:</u>
p(A and B) = p(A) * p(B)
In this problem,
A = first one blue
B = second one blue
<u>Probability that if two marbles are drawn out of the bag, both are blue:</u>
3/12 x 2/11 = 0.045454
<u>Rounded answer:</u>
0.0455 (or 4.55%)
