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 %

Identify this conic section. 16y = x^2
kiruha [24]

ANSWER

A parabola.

EXPLANATION

The given conic is :

16y =  {x}^{2}

This can be rewritten as:

{x}^{2}  = 16y

{x}^{2}  = 4(4)y

This is a parabola with the vertex at the origin.

The foci is (0,4)

Therefore the given conic section is a parabola that has an axis of symmetry parallel to the y-axis.

How much does 1 can of soda cost if you get a
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

Each can of soda costs about 33 cents.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is just a simple division problem, and you can find the answer by dividing the cost of the sodas by the total number of sodas, so 4/12. If you complete that problem, the answer is 0.33 repeating, and since it asks you to round to the nearest hundredth, the answer is just 0.33. It is in dollar amounts, so the answer is 33 cents.

To start a road trip, a car encountered a traffic jam, traveling a total of m miles after the first hour and a total of m2 miles
Monica [59]
56 miles, The car traveled m miles during the first hour and m squared miles during the second hour. The ratio m/m squared = 1/7 and cross multiplying yields m squared = 7m, so m=7. This means that the total distance traveled was 7+7squared = 56 miles
