Answer:

Probability that event will have both red marbles will be 2.3% or 0.023.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total red marbles=5

Total blue marbles=25

Total number of marbles =30

To Find:

The probability that both are red without replacement of marbles.

Solution:

Now

Total sample space is 30 and total red marbles are 5

For a event that getting red marble probability is ,

=Total red marbles /total marbles.

=5/30

=1/6

So probability if getting red marble is 1/6

<em>Now for second chance there will be 4 red marbles remaining and 29 total marbles so,</em>

In second chance  probability if getting red marble will be

=total red marbles present/total marbles remaining

=4/29

Now ,

The required probability will be getting both at a time

i.e probability getting red AND red marble so here AND operator which means multiple both the probability.

Probability both will have red =1/6*4/29

=4/(29*6)=2/(29*3)

=0.022988

=0.023

=2.3 %

Find the slope<br> 5x - 2y = 10<br><br> M=_______
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Slope is 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

5x-2y=10

subtract 5x from both sides

-2y=-5x+10

Then you divide -2 on both sides

y=5/2x-5

Which will result 5/2 as the slope

13 percent of what is 78
Brums [2.3K]
13% of what is 78

"what" is the unknown, so use x for what.
"of" in math usually means a multiplication.
"is" means "="

13% * x = 78

0.13x = 78

x = 78/0.13

x = 600

Answer: the number is 600

The graphs of the linear functions f and g are shown above. If h(x)=f(x)+g(x), then h′(x)=
SpyIntel [72]

Based on the graph,

     f(x) = 1/2x+3

    g(x) = -x+4

so, h(x) = -1/2 x +7

Since h'(x) is the derivative or slope of h(x) and h is a line,

h'(x) = -1/2, Answer C.
