Answer: 7/24

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4 + 1/3 + 1/8

They all need a common denominator to be added:

6/24 + 8/24 + 3/24 =

17/24

The remaining number to 24 is the answer (17/24 + 7/24 = 24/24)

A bag contains 20 marbles: 12 red, 4 blue, 3 yellow, and 1 green. Arielle takes out 2 marbles. What is the probability that they
Marysya12 [62]

Total number of marbles in the bag =20

Number of blue marbles =4

Now we just want two blue marbles out of four.

Probability of taking out first marble which is blue =4/20

Now after we took out one blue marble , number of blue marbles left are 3.

Probability of taking out second marble which is blue =3/20

Total probability = 4/20 *3/20 = 12/400

So probability of taking out two blue marbles is 0.03 or 12/400.

Solve the matrix equation for a, b, c, and d. [1 2] [a b] [6 5][3 4] [c d]= [19 8]
Anit [1.1K]

Answer:

The answer is "\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}7&-2\\ -\frac{1}{2}&\frac{7}{2}\end{array}\right]}".

Step-by-step explanation:

\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&2\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&5\\ 19&8\end{array}\right]}

Solve the L.H.S part:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}1&2\\3&4\end{array}\right] \left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right]\\\\\\\left[\begin{array}{cc}a+2c&b+2d\\3a+4c&3b+4d\end{array}\right]

After calculating the L.H.S part compare the value with R.H.S:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}a+2c&b+2d\\3a+4c&3b+4d\end{array}\right]= \left[\begin{array}{cc}6&5\\ 19&8\end{array}\right]} \\\\

\to a+2c =6....(i)\\\\\to b+2d =5....(ii)\\\\\to 3a+4c =19....(iii)\\\\\to 3b+4d = 8 ....(iv)\\\\

In equation (i) multiply by 3 and subtract by equation (iii):

\to 3a+6c=18\\\to 3a+4c=19\\\\\text{subtract}... \\\\\to 2c = -1\\\\\to  c= - \frac{1}{2}

put the value of c in equation (i):

\to a+ 2 (- \frac{1}{2})=6\\\\\to a- 2 \times \frac{1}{2}=6\\\\\to a- 1=6\\\\\to a =6 +1\\\\\to a = 7\\

In equation (ii) multiply by 3 then subtract by equation (iv):

\to 3b+6d=15\\\to 3b+4d=8\\\\\text{subtract...}\\\\\to 2d = 7\\\\\to d= \frac{7}{2}\\

put the value of d in equation (iv):

\to 3b+4 (\frac{7}{2})=8\\\\\to 3b+4 \times \frac{7}{2}=8\\\\\to 3b+14=8\\\\\to 3b =8-14\\\\\to 3b = -6\\\\\to b= \frac{-6}{3}\\\\\to b= -2

The final answer is "\bold{\left[\begin{array}{cc}a&b\\c&d\end{array}\right] = \left[\begin{array}{cc}7&-2\\ -\frac{1}{2}&\frac{7}{2}\end{array}\right]}".
