A bag contains 8 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 1 green marble. What is the probability that a randomly selected marble is not
Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

.75

Step-by-step explanation:

8 red marbles, 3 blue marbles, and 1 green marble = 12 marbles

P( not blue) = marbles that are not blue / total

                     =(8red+1 green) / 12

                     =9/12

                      = 3/4

What are the values of a, b, and c in the quadratic equation 0 = 1/2 x2 – 3x – 2?
MA_775_DIABLO [31]
In a quadratic equation, the standard equation is represented as follows:

Ax^2 + Bx + C = 0

where A, B and C are constants and A should not have a zero value.

The values of A, B, and C would be as follows:

A = 1/2
B = -3
C = -2

Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

Kersha has two jobs. During the day she works as an office clerk, and in the evening she works as a cashier. Her office job pays
VLD [36.1K]
Let x =  hours worked as a clerk ($12 per hour).
Let y = hours worked as a cashier ($8.25 per hour).

She worked 55 hours, therefore
x + y = 55             (1)

She earned $585, therefore
12x + 8.25y = 585        (2)

From (1), obtain
y = 55 - x           (3)

Substitute (3) into (2).
12x + 8.25(55 - x) = 585
12x + 453.75 - 8.25x = 585
3.75x = 131.25
x = 35
y = 55 - x = 55 - 35 = 20

Answer: a)  Office clerk: 35 hours; cashier: 20 hours.
