<h3>Answer: 17/24</h3>

==========================================================

Explanation:

We have these four cases or possible outcomes

Case 1) We select 0 black marbles and 3 red marbles.
Case 2) We select 1 black marble and 2 red marbles.
Case 3) We select 2 black marbles and 1 red marble.
Case 4) We select 3 black marbles and 0 red marbles.

Let's calculate the probability for case 4.

There are 7 black marbles out of 10 total. The probability of picking black is 7/10. If no replacement is made, then 6/9 is the probability of picking black again (subtract 1 from the numerator and denominator separately). Finally, 5/8 is the probability of getting black a third time.

The probability of getting 3 black marbles in a row is

(7/10)*(6/9)*(5/8) = (7*6*5)/(10*9*8) = 210/720 = 7/24.

That fraction 7/24 means that if you had 24 chances, then you expect about 7 of them will lead to getting three black marbles in a row (aka case 4). Therefore, 24-7 = 17 occurrences are expected where we get cases 1 through 3 occur in some fashion (pick one case only).

Notice how cases 1 through 3 encapsulate the phrasing "at most 2 black marbles" which is another way of saying "2 black marbles is the highest we can go".

So that's why the answer is 17/24.

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-1, 2) and is parallel to the line y = 3/2x + 6

Answer: $\textsf{y = 3/2x + 7/2}$

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Given: $\textsf{Passes through (-1, 2) and parallel to y = 3/2x + 6}$

Find: $\textsf{The equation in slope-intercept form}$

Solution: In order to determine the equation we know that our line is going to be parallel which means that the slope is the same and we need to use the point-slope form to help us. After plugging in the values we just simplify and solve for y to convert to slope-intercept form.
