Total number of marbles:
75 + 50 + 100 + 25 = 250

Probability of selecting a red marble:
25/250 (since 25 out of 250 marbles are red)
Since the top and bottom of this fraction are both divisible by 25, we can go ahead and divide them both by 25, simplifying to 1/10.

Probability of selecting a green marble:
50/250
Simplifies to 2/10
Simplifies to 1/5.

Probability of selecting a blue or orange marble
(75+100)/250
175/250
Simplifies to 7/10.

To find the probability that each event occurs in order, simply multiply them all together.

\frac{1}{10}\times\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{7}{10}=\frac{1\times1\times7}{10\times5\times10}=\boxed{\frac{7}{500}}

Answer:

7/500 or Answer Choice B

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First find the total # of ALL the marbles in the bag. (75 + 50 + 100 + 25 = 250)

2. Then define the percentage of each marble color in said bag.

  • blue: 75 out of 250 (75/250) = 30%
  • green: 50 out of 250 (50/250) = 20%
  • orange: 100 out of 250 (100/250) = 40%
  • red: 25 out of 250 (25/250) = 10%

3. Double check that the percentage = 100. (yes)

4. Understand that she could pick the said marble colors not in the order that was specified, so to determine the chances of picking the right colors in the right order. Multiple the values.

red marble: 1/10 chance

green marble: 2/10 or 1/5 chance

blue OR orange (this means add together and then divide by total: 250): 7/10 chance

multiply fractions: 1/10 x 1/5 x 7/10 = 7/500 (this is simplified)

5. Select Answer Choice (B)

b.) 17
c.) 80
d.) 1
All your doing is substituting x for the number in the parenthesis and matching it with the correct function. For example, f(-3) would be 2(-3)-7 which is equal to -6-7 which is -13.

Marshall left home biking at a constant rate of 20 mph. One hour later, it looked like it may rain, so his friend, Brett, set ou
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

First, we need to find how far ahead Marshall was.  Since he had been biking at 20 mph for one hour, he had gone 20 miles.

Next, we need to find how long it will take Brett to catch up to Marshall.  In order to do this, we need to find how much faster Brett is going than Marshall.  We do this by subtracting Marshall's speed from Brett's speed.

60 - 20 = 40.  So, Brett is catching up to Marshall at 40 mph.  Now, we figure out how long it will take for someone going 40 miles per hour to go 20 miles.  We find this by dividing 40 miles per hour by 20.  This is equal to 1/2 hour.  So, it will take Brett 0.5 hours to catch up to Marshall.  This is the same as A, so A is the correct answer.

We can check our answer by seeing how far Marshall and Brett will have gone.  Marshall will have been biking for 1.5 hours, so we multiply 20 * 1.5 = 30.  Marshall went 30 miles.

Brett drove for .5 hours at 60 mph, so he went 30 miles.  Since Brett and Marshall went the same distance, our answer is correct.
