So we know there are 5 red and 12 silver marbles, together making 16 marbles.
This would mean that there is a 5/17 chance of choosing a red marble.
When you do the math to convert 5/17 into a decimal, it turns into being a .29 chance.
Convert .29 into a decimal, and you know that you have a 29% chance of grabbing a red marble.
Hope this helped!

Answer:
750 of 100,000 chips would be expected to be defective.
Step-by-step explanation:
(3/400) and (?/100,000)
100,000 ÷ 400 = 250.
Multiply 250 by 3 to find the number of defective chips.
250 x 3 = 750.
Answer:
Width = 16(√5) - 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that the golden rectangle is 32 cm long.
Thus, length = 32 cm
We are also told that the ratio of the length to the width is; (1 + √5):2
Thus;
If a length of (1 + √5) yields a width of 2
Then, a length of 32 cm would yield a width of; (32 x 2)/(1 + √5)
So corresponding width = 64/(1 + √5)
We want to reduce this width to it's simplest radical form which means the denominator should have no square root.
Thus, let's multiply top and bottom by (1 - √5);
Width = 64 x (1 - √5)/[(1 + √5) x (1 - √5)]
Width = 64(1 - √5)/(1 - 5)
Width = 64(1 - √5)/(-4)
Width = -16(1 - √5)
Width = 16(√5 - 1)
Width = 16√5 - 1
6/7 times 6/7 equals 36/49
Hello!
As we can see in the plot, the probability of the horse getting all eight answers correct is very small. The horse has to have had its lucky horseshoes on, because the answer has to be A.
The reason being, the most common result of Rob's trial was four, which is half of eight. Each coin had a 1/2 chance of being tails up. The horse also had a 1/2 chance of getting each question right.
So as we can see, the answer is A (D does not relate to the data at all).
I hope this helps!
