The answer to your question is: .75 = 3x - .03
How to solve it:
x = the cost of a pack of gum twenty years ago
.75 = 3x - .03
+ .03 + .03
.78 = 3x
/ 3 / 3
.26 = x
If a pack of gum now costs 75 cents, which is 3 cents less than three times what a pack would have cost 20 years ago, then a pack of gum would have cost 26 cents.
I really hope that helps cause I went all out and best of wishes!!
I believe it would be b= -264
(I’m not 100% sure though so you might wanna check)
Theres no graphs but this is how the function looks like
It will be 21/40
probability getting both white marbles
3/8×4/10=12/80
probability getting both black marbles
5/8×6/10=30/80
12/80+30/80=42/80= 21/80
