Answer:  The probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a bag of marbles contains 12 red marbles 8 blue marbles and 5 green marbles.

Let S be the sample space for the experiment of pulling a marble.

Then, n(S) = 12 + 8 + 5 = 25.

Let, E, F and G represents the events of pulling a red marble, a blue marble and a green marble respectively.

The, n(E) = 12, n(F) = 8  and  n(G) = 5.

Therefore, the probabilities of each of these three events E, F and G will be

P(E)=\dfrac{n(E)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{12}{25}=\dfrac{12}{25}\times100\%=48\%,\\\\\\P(F)=\dfrac{n(F)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{8}{25}=\dfrac{8}{25}\times100\%=32\%,\\\\\\P(G)=\dfrac{n(G)}{n(S)}=\dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{5}{25}\times100\%=20\%.

Now, the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is given by

P(G)\times P(G)\times P(G)=\dfrac{5}{25}\times\dfrac{5}{25}\times \dfrac{5}{25}=\dfrac{1}{125}=\dfrac{1}{125}\times100\%=0.8\%.

Thus, the probability of pulling a red marble is 48%, probability of pulling a blue marble is 32%, probability of pulling a green marble is 20%

and

the probability of pulling three green marbles out with replacement is 0.8%.

Answer:

y = -1/4x^2 - x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

(-6,0)

(-4,3)

(2,0)

36a - 6b + c = 0

16a -4b + c = 3

4a + 2b + c = 0

c = -4a - 2b

36a - 6b - 4a -2b = 0

16a - 4b -4a - 2b = 3

32a -8b = 0

12a - 6b = 3

4a - b  = 0

4a - 2b = 1

b = -1

4a + 1 = 0

4a = -1

a = -1/4

c = 1 + 2 = 3

y = -1/4x^2 - x + 3
