Answer: B. one-third

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of picking a red marble, P(R) = 1/6

Probability of picking a yellow marble, P(Y) = 1/2

Therefore, the probability of picking a blue marble will be:

= 1 - (P(R) + P(Y))

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/2)

= 1 - (4/6).

= 1 - 2/3

= 1/3

The probability of picking a blue marble will be one third

A page was missing from a 72 - page book. When Josh added up the remaining page numbers, the sum was 2521. Which page was missin
morpeh [17]
The numbers 1 to 72 add up to (1+72) x 72/2 = 73 x 36 = 2628
If we take away what Josh got we have 2628 - 2521 = 107
Pages in a book are odd on the first side and even on the second, so pages 11 and 12 are on the same sheet.
107 / 2 = 53.5 so the missing page had 53 on one side and 54 on the other side.
The remaining pages would have been numbered 1, 2, 3, ..., 51, 52, 55, 56, ... 71, 72

What is another name for angle 1? 1.∠JNL 2. ∠N 3. ∠MNK 4.∠NLJ
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

1. <JNL

Step-by-step explanation:

Point N is the vertex of angle 1. Therefore, we can give <1 another name by using 3 letters which includes the letter of vertex point in the middle, and two other letters of the two rays that meets at the vertex point.

Thus, JN and LN meets at point N. Therefore angle 1 can be named as:

<JNL

Write a pair of equivalent expressions using distributive property
bulgar [2K]
The distributive property "distributes" a number through all numbers/terms in a set of parentheses by multiplication.


EXAMPLES
Equivalent expressions are the first and last steps. The middle step just shows the work.

5(2 + 3x)= (5*2) + (5*3x)= 7 + 15x

4(2x + 4y)= (4*2x) + (4*4y)= 8x + 16y

10(4x + 5)= (10*4x) + (10*5)= 40x + 50


ANSWER:
Only one pair below is needed for your answer.

5(2 + 3x)= 7 + 15x

4(2x + 4y)= 8x + 16y

10(4x + 5)= 40x + 50


Hope this helps! :)
