Answer: Our required probability would be 0.35.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of boxes = 2

Number of purple marbles in Box A = 30

Number of yellow marbles in Box A = 20

Number of purple marbles in Box B = 15

Number of yellow marbles in Box B = 35

So,  If Melanie randomly selects one of the boxes and then randomly selects one marble from that box.

Probability that the marble selected will be purple is given by

\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{20}{50}+\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{15}{50}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}(\dfrac{20+15}{50})\\\\=\dfrac{1}{2}\times \dfrac{35}{50}\\\\=\dfrac{35}{100}\\\\=0.35

Hence, our required probability would be 0.35.

Rearrange the equation so r is the independent variable.<br><br> 10q - 5r = 30
Murljashka [212]

Answer:

q = 3 + 1/2r

Step-by-step explanation:

10q - 5r = 30

We want to solve for q

Add 5r to each side

10q - 5r+5r = 30+5r

10q = 30+5r

Divide by 10

10q/10 = 30/10 +5r/10

q = 3 + 1/2r
