Answer:

31%

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum total of all marbles at the beginning is 8+(9+9)=26

the probability of picking a red marble at this point is p(1)=(8/26)

now 25 marbles remain, the distribution is now 8+17=25

the probability of picking a red marble at this point is p(2)=(8/25)

now 24 marbles remain, the distribution is now 8+16=24

the probability of picking a red marble at this point is p(3)=(8/24)

it follows that the remaining probabilities are for "not picking a red marble".

these probabilities are 1-p([1;2;3]).

Probabilities are multiplicative.

The probability for 3 consecutive non-red draws is then given by:

(1-8/26)*(1-8/25)*(1-8/24) = 103/325 | that's roughly 31%

not 100% sure!

Abby's school is 6 blocks west of her house. Her mother works at a store that is 4 blocks east of her school. Use a number line
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

<h2>10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us give a proper illustration in the number line

let H be Abby's house

and S be the school

let W be her mother's work.

kindly find attached a rough sketch of the number line for your reference

Question:<em> What value represents the difference in position between Abby's house and her mother's store?</em>

basically, the distance between two points on a number line is the difference between the points.

So the value that represents the position between Abby's house and her mother's store is the distance between the two points.

= 4-(-6)

=4+6

=10

Y=-3x + 4
serg [7]
Use substitution
Set them equal to each other
-3x + 4 = 3x - 2
Solve the equation
4 = 6x - 2
6x = 6, x = 1
Plug in 1 for any equation to find y
Y = -3(1) + 4
Y = -3 + 4, y = 1
Solution: x = 1, y = 1

Answer:

y = -0.85 + 0.09x; $49.82

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate Σx, Σy, Σxy, and Σx²  

The calculation is tedious but not difficult.

\begin{array}{rrrr}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{y}  & \mathbf{xy} & \mathbf{x^{2}}\\526 & 52.08 & 27394.08 & 276676\\625& 59.00 & 36875.00 &390625\\589 & 56.12 & 33054.68 & 346921\\409 & 25.72 & 10519.48 & 167281\\489 & 34.12& 16684.68 & 293121\\500 & 53.00 & 26500.00 &250000\\906 & 76.48 & 71102.88 & 820836\\251 &26.08 & 6546.08 & 63001\\595 & 50.60 & 30107.00 & 354025\\719 & 68.52 & 49265.88 & 516961\\\mathbf{5609} & \mathbf{503.72} &\mathbf{308049.76} & \mathbf{3425447}\\\end{array}

2. Calculate the coefficients in the regression equation

a = \dfrac{\sum y \sum x^{2} - \sum x \sum xy}{n\sum x^{2}- \left (\sum x\right )^{2}} =  \dfrac{503.7 \times 3425447 - 5609 \times 308049.76}{10 \times 3425447- 5609^{2}}\\\\= \dfrac{1725466163 - 1727851103.84}{34254470 - 31460881} = -\dfrac{2384941}{2793589}= \mathbf{-0.8537}

b = \dfrac{n\sumx y  - \sum x \sumxy}{n\sum x^{2}- \left (\sum x\right )^{2}} = \dfrac{3080498 - 2825365.48}{2793589} = \dfrac{255132}{2793589} = \mathbf{0.09133}

To two decimal places, the regression equation is

y = -0.85 + 0.09x

3. Prediction

If x = 563,

y = -0.85 + 0.09x = -0.85 + 0.09 × 563 = -0.85  + 50.67 = $49.82

(If we don't  round the regression equation to two decimal places, the predicted value is $50.56.)
