Answer:

<h2>0.218</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome of event/ Total outcome

If a bag contains 3 red marbles, 7 blue marbles and 5 green marbles, the total number of marbles in the bag will be the total outcome i.e 3+7+5 = 15

If two blue marbles are drawn, the expected outcome in both cases is 7 since there are 7 blue marbles in the bag.

Probability of drawing the first blue marble = 7/15

Probability of drawing the second blue marble = 7/15

Probability that both marbles drawn will be blue =  7/15*7/15

= 49/225

= 0.218 (to nearest 1000th)

The graph starts flat but then curves steeply upwards. You can tell this by the sudden jumps in y-coordinates, illustrating that it keeps going further up faster and faster as the x-coordinates progress steadily.

A line includes the points (1, 6) and (10, 4). What is its equation in point-slope form? Use one of the specified points in your
Kaylis [27]
Y2-y1/x2-x1
4-6/10-1
-2/9 is the slope

y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-6=-2/9(x-1)
y-6=-2/9x-2/9
Multiply both sides by 9
9y-54=-2x-2
2x+9y=52

Therefore 2x+9y=52 is the equation
