A bag contains only red and blue marbles. Yasmine takes one marble at random from the bag. The probability that she takes a red

marble is 1 in 5. Yasmine returns the marble to the bag and adds five more red marbles to the bag. The probability that she takes one red marble at random is now 1 in 3. How many red marbles were originally in the bag?

There was one red marble because it said that the probability of choosing a red marble is 1/5 so the other marbles are blue. 
Hope this helps.

If the triangle is a right triangle, the pythagorean theorem would work
since it doesn’t, the triangle is NOT A RIGHT TRIANGLE

Angle m AOC=108° m AOB=3x+4° m BOC=8x-28°<br><br> Find m AOB
Alex787 [66]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

40



Discussion:

A diagram is always appreciated!

Assuming that

mAOC = mAOB    + mBOC       =>

108      = (3x + 4)  +  (8x - 28)    =>  combine common terms

108      = (3x + 8x) + (4 - 28 )     =>

108      = 11x - 24                        =>   add 24 to both sides

132     = 11x                                 =>

x = 132/11 = 12


So mAOB = 3x + 4 = 3(12) + 4 = 36 + 4 = 40



Thank you,

MrB

Answer:

A) x = 3 or -1

B) x = -7

C)x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

A) x² + 2x + 1 = 2x² - 2

Rearranging, we have;

2x² - x² - 2x - 2 - 1 = 0

x² - 2x - 3 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

x = [-(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1 × -3))]/(2 × 1)

x = (2 ± √16)/2

x = (2 + 4)/2 or (2 - 4)/2

x = 6/2 or -2/2

x = 3 or -1

B) ((x + 2)/3) - 2/15 = (x - 2)/5

Multiply through by 15 to get;

5(x + 2) - 2 = 3(x - 2)

5x + 10 - 2 = 3x - 6

5x - 3x = -6 - 10 + 2

2x = -14

x = -14/2

x = -7

C) log(2x + 3) = 2log x

From log derivations, 2 log x is same as log x²

Thus;

log(2x + 3) = logx²

Log will cancel out to give;

2x + 3 = x²

x² - 2x - 3 = 0

Using quadratic formula, we have;

x = [-(-2) ± √((-2)² - 4(1 × -3))]/(2 × 1)

x = (2 ± √16)/2

x = (2 + 4)/2 or (2 - 4)/2

x = 6/2 or -2/2

x = 3 or -1

What is the domain and the range of these functions?? quick please!!!!!!!!!!
Sever21 [200]
The domain of a function f(x) is the set of all values for which the function is defined, and the range of the function is the set of all values that f takes. A rational function is a function of the form f(x)=p(x)q(x) , where p(x) and q(x) are polynomials and q(x)≠0 .
