Answer: 1/3

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're asked to find the probability of selecting a blue marble from a bag without looking.

Start with the ratio for the probability

of an event which is shown below.

P(event) <em>= number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes</em>

Since there are 3 blue marbles in a bag, the number of favorable outcomes is 3 and since there are 12 marbles in all and it's equally likely that we will choose any of the marbles, the total number of outcomes is 12 so we have 3/12.

Therefore, the probability of choosing a blue marble is 3/12.

However, notice that 3/12 can be reduced to 1/3.

So the final answer for the probability of choosing a blue marble is 1/3.

Identify the name and label the parts of the following polynomial: − 2x^4+24^2-10
lianna [129]
-2x^4 + 24x^2 - 10

u have 3 terms.....and since u are only dealing with 1 variable with the highest exponent being 4, then what u have here is a 4th degree trinomial.
U have a lead coefficient of -2.
Ur constant term is -10
And ur middle term (24x^2) has a degree of 2

a cubic binomial.....a binomial has 2 terms and it being cubic means the highest term has a degree of 3
example would be : x^3 - 4

how many constants can a polynomial have ? I am not sure about this one...I wanna say 1 because u can simplify it if it has more then 1...but I am not 100% sure on this one

3x^2 + 6xy -10x^5 + y^6 - 10x^3y^5

when u have a polynomial with more then 1 variable, such as this one, the degree is not the highest exponent, it is the highest term.....-10x^3y^5...u add the exponents....so this term has a degree of 8, and it is the highest one in this problem....so this is an 8th degree polynomial with 5 terms

An animal shelter spends three dollars per day to take care for each bird and seven dollars per day take care for each cat Alexa
NikAS [45]

Answer:

There were 16 birds  at the shelter on Wednesday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of cats and birds on Wednesday = 34

let the number of birds on Wednesday = b

Then number of cats = (34 -b)

The rate of taking care of each bird in shelter = $3

The rate of taking care of each cat in shelter = $7

Total amount spent by shelter on Wednesday = $174

So, according to the question

b x ($3)  +  (34 -b) ($7) =  $ 174

or,  3b + 238 - 7b = 174

or, 4b = 64

⇒ b = 64/4 = 16

Hence, the number of birds in shelter on Wednesday = b = 16

and  Number of cats = 34 - 16 = 18
