~ ANSWER=1/2 ~

Simple probability is found by counting all the results which fit requirements and dividing by all possible results.

To find probability of two results in a row, multiply chance of first result by chance of second result.

Since you are replacing the marble before the second draw, we don’t have to figure out the various changes in odds for the different possible first draws. It’s just that simple.

There are 5 white marbles

There are 4 red marbles

There are always 20 marbles in all

5/20*4/20=1/4*1/5=1/20 or 1/2

By coincidence, the same as the chance of drawing the white marble in one draw.

Use the drawing tool(s) to form the correct answer on the provided graph.
Dominik [7]

Answer:

  see below. The solution is the doubly-shaded area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Each boundary line will be dashed, because the "or equal to" case is <em>not included</em>. Each shaded area will be above the corresponding boundary line because the comparison symbol is y > .... That is, only y-values greater than (above) those in the boundary line are part of the solution.

Of course, the boundary lines are graphed in the usual way. Each crosses the y-axis at the value of the constant in its equation. Each has a slope (rise/run) that is the value of the x-coefficient in the equation.

Find the missing value of x and y.
scoray [572]

Step-by-step explanation:

tan 60 = 21 ÷ y

1.73 = 21 ÷ y

y = 21 ÷ 1.73

y = 12.14

tan 30 = x÷ 12

0.6 x 12 = x

x = 7.2
