<h2>Answer:</h2>

The first consecutive odd number is: 9

and the second consecutive odd number is: 11

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let the two consecutive odd numbers be: a and a+2

( Since, we know that the difference between two consecutive odd or two consecutive even numbers is always 2 )

Now, it is given that:

Three times the first is 5 more than twice the second.

i.e.

3a=5+2(a+2)\\\\i.e.\\\\3a=5+2a+4\\\\3a=5+4+2a\\\\3a=2a+9\\\\3a-2a=9\\\\a=9

Hence, we get:

The first consecutive odd number is: 9

and the  second consecutive odd number is: 9+2=11

Amy has a box containing 6 white, 4 red, and 8 black marbles. She picks a marble randomly. It is red. The second time, she picks
Sladkaya [172]
After the 3rd pick we have: 4 white, 3 red and 8 black marbles.
The probability that the 4th marble is black is:
P ( Black ) = 8 / 15 = 0.5333
After the 4th pick we have: 4 white, 3 red and 7 black marbles.
P ( Red or Black ) = 10 / 14 = 5 / 7 = 0.7143
