A bag holds 1 blue block and 3 yellow blocks. How many green blocks should be added to the bag to make the probability of random

Drupady [299]

$n$ - the number of green blocks which is equal to the number of favourable events
$1+3+n=4n$ - the number of all blocks, which is equal to the number of all possible outcomes

$P(A)=\dfrac{n}{4+n}=\dfrac{1}{2}\\
1\cdot( 4+n)=2\cdot n\\
4+n=2n\\
2n-n=4\\
n=4

2(1/4x + 4) = 3(x -2) PLZ HELP

Distribute 2 and remove parentheses :
1/2x+8=3x-6
Multiply both sides of equation by 2:
x+16=6x-12
Move terms:
x+16-6x=-12
x-6x=-12-16
Collect like terms:
-5x=-28
Divide both sides:
x=28/5

2. what value of b makes the following equation true

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

2. 10

3. D. 1 for all n

Step-by-step explanation:

2. The applicable rules of exponents are ...

(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

a^b = 1/a^-b

$\dfrac{4^8}{(4^2)^{-3}}\div 4^4=\dfrac{4^8}{4^{-6}\cdot4^4}=\dfrac{4^8}{4^{-2}}\\\\=4^8\cdot4^2=4^{10}$

The value of n is 10.

3. Using the above rules of exponents, the expression simplifies to ...

6^(-n+n) = 6^0 = 1

The value is 1 for any n.
