Jamie has a bag containing purple, pink, yellow, and blue marbles. There are a total of 40 marbles in the bag. Jamie randomly se

lects a marble from the bag and then puts it back. He repeats this process 420 times. If Jamie selected a pink marble 10 times, what is a good prediction of the number of pink marbles in the bag?

Answer:

1 pink marble

Step-by-step explanation:

If Jamie selected 10 times the pink marble in a total of 420 tries, we can assume that the proportion of pink marble in the total number of marbles is:

10 / 420 = 1/42

So to predict a good number of pink marbles in the total 40 marbles, we just need to multiply the 40 marbles by the proportion found above:

pink marble = 40 * (1/42) = 0.9524

As this number needs to be a whole number, a good assumption is that there is 1 pink marble in the 40 marbles.

The sum of three consecutive integers is −42. find the three integers.
erica [24]
Let the integers be x - 1, x and x + 1, then
x - 1 + x + x + 1 = -42
3x = -42
x = -42/3 = -14

The three consectutive integers are -15, -14 and -13

It depends on what its asking for and what dimension it is. If its 2D, the area is lengthXwidth, and perimeter you would add all the side lengths. If its 3D, volume is lengthXwidthXheigth.

The solutions to the inequality y<-x+1 are shaded on the graph. Which point is a solution?
suter [353]
Answer: 
B) (3, –2)

Explanation: 
The inequality is y ≤ –x + 1
There are two ways to do this. You can try the four options by seeing where they lie on the graph, or by inputting them into the inequality and seeing if they check out. I am going to do a bit of both.

I know that the solution cannot have two positive coordinates because the first quadrant is not part of the solution, so I won't guess A or C. 
I'll try (3, –2) (which is option B).
On the graph, (3, –2) is on the line, which means it is part of the solution because the line is solid and the inequality is a greater than or equal to sign. 
Try it in the inequality: 
y ≤ –x + 1 
–2 ≤ –3 + 1 
–2 ≤ –2 yes this checks out.
