Answer:

Number of white marbles in the bag = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of marbles in the bag = 135

Ratio of white marble to transparent ones = 3 : 6

Let number of white marbles be =3k

Then number of transparent marble will be =6k

Total number of marbles will be =3k+6k=9k

So we have.

9k=135

Dividing both sides by 9.

\frac{9k}{9}=\frac{135}{9}

∴ k=15

∴ Number of white marbles in the bag = 3k=3\times15 = 45

Help answering this simple Series Question? I don't know what I did wrong!
Tatiana [17]
Looks like you just evaluated the summand for the given value of n, whereas the question is asking you to find the value of the sum for the first n terms.

Let S_k=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^k\frac3{(-2)^n}. Then S_k is the kth partial sum.

S_1 happens to be the first term in the series, which is why that box is marked correct:

S_1=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^1\frac3{(-2)^n}=\frac3{(-2)^1}=-1.5

But the next partial sum is not correct:

S_2=\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^2\frac3{(-2)^n}=\frac3{(-2)^1}+\frac3{(-2)^2}=-0.75

and this is not the same notion as the second term (which indeed is 0.75) in the series.

Suppose you are given two angles A and B in which angle a is equal to angle b. If the measure of a compliment of angle a is equa
zepelin [54]
5x + 20 = 90 - a = 90 - (3x + 40)
5x + 20 = 90 - 3x - 40 = 50 - 3x
5x + 3x = 50 - 20
8x = 30
x = 30/8 = 15/4

b = 3(15/4) + 40 = 45/4 + 40 = 51.25
The measure of a supplementary angle is 180 - 51.25 = 128.75

The sample space, S, for flipping a fair coin three times is shown
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: \frac{7}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sample space is ={HHH,THH,HTH,HHT,TTH,THT,HTT,TTT}

There are 8 element in sample space which indicates the outcome of tossing a coin three times

Probability of obtaining at least one head=1-P(\text{0 head})

P(\text{0 head})=P(\text{All tails})

P=1-\frac{1}{8}

P=\frac{7}{8}
