Answer:
P ( blue ) = 1/4
P ( white ) = 5/12
P ( red ) = 1/3
P ( not red ) = 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of a marble being chosen, it is the number of that color over the total
We need to find the total number of marbles
4 red+ 5 white+3 blue = 12 marbles
P ( blue ) = 3 blue / 12 total = 3/12 = 1/4
P ( white ) = 5 white / 12 total = 5/12
P ( red ) = 4 red/ 12 total = 4/12 = 1/3
How man marbles are not red
total marbles - red marbles = 12-4 = 8
8 marbles are not red
P ( not red ) = 8 not red / 12 total = 8/12 = 2/3
x correct answers
23 - x incorrect answers
82 = 4x + -1(23 - x) = 3x - 23
105 = 5 x
x = 105/5 = 21

Check: 4(21) -1(2) = 84-2=82 good
8/9 divided by 3 = 8/27
