Answer:

Let take the center of bridge as our origin (0,0). Parabola having vertex at origin is represented by y=a.x^2

At the right far end or +ive x-axis side we've x=200 and y=75 , so a=75/(200^2)=0.001875

Y

Parabola equation y=0.001875*x^2

Height of cable from 100m from centre. Y=? ,X=100m

Y=0.001875*(100^2)

Y=18.75 m

Height of ropes at 100m from the center of bridge.

marta [7]

Answer:

D. 2/17

Step-by-step explanation:

Add all of the marbles: 6 blue marbles + 6 black marbles + 3 green marbles + 2 purple marbles = 17 marbles altogether.

Since there are 2 purple marbles out of 17 marbles in the paper sack, the complement to the probability that she will draw a purple marble is 2/17.
