Answer:
A = choosing a red marble
B = choosing a green marble
Probability of A happening = P(A) = 5/(3+5+4) = 5/12
Probability of B happening = P(B) = 4/(3+5+4) = 4/12
Probability of either happening = P(A) + P(B) = 5/12 + 4/12 = 7/12
The key word in their question is red OR green and that is why we add the two probabilities. If they ask the probability of them both happening (if they said red AND green), you would multiply P(A)*P(B).
The greatest common factor is 8 because Prime factor is 2 and 4, Number 48 is 4 and 1 Number 64 is 6 and o Number 72 is 3 and 0 which it would all equal 2^3 so 48 = 2^4 times 3 64 = 2^6 and 72 = 2^3 times 3^2 Hope this helps.
First of all, it is a ratio. I know that for a fact, but not very sure about the candy part. What I think it means is that they are comparing two types of candy.
|x-5| = 9
x - 5 = 9
x = 14
-(x-5) = 9
-x + 5 = 9
-x = 4
x = -4
answer is B
{-4, 14)
