Answer: 1 in 18
This is the same as writing the fraction 1/18
==============================================================
Explanation:
Since she has 36 marbles total, and the probability of picking green is 1 in 2, this means (1/2)*36 = 18 marbles are green.
Then she also has (1/3)*36 = 12 red marbles and (1/9)*36 = 4 blue marbles.
So far, that accounts for 18+12+4 = 34 marbles in all. That leaves 36-4 = 2 marbles left over that must be black, as it's the only color left.
From that, the probability of choosing a black marble is 2/36 = 1/18.
There's a 1 in 18 chance of Maddy picking a black marble.
1/18 = 0.0556 = 5.56% approximately
The answer is (6, 7)
This is the system of two equations:
<span>2y − x = 8
y − 2x = −5
_____
Express the second equation in the term of y:
2y - x = 8
y = 2x - 5
_____
Substitute y in the first equation:
2(2x - 5) - x = 8
4x - 10 - x = 8
4x - x = 10 + 8
3x = 18
x = 18/3
x = 6
Since x = 6 and y = 2x - 5, then:
y = 2 * 6 - 5
y = 12 - 5
y = 7
Therefore, (x, y) = (6, 7)</span>
3(x + 7) = 9(x - 1)
3(x) + 3(7) = 9(x) - 9(1)
3x + 21 = 9x - 9
<u>- 3x - 3x </u>
21 = 3x - 9
<u>+ 9 + 9</u>
<u>30</u> = <u>3x</u>
3 3
10 = x
