Answer:

The probability that all 3 balls are red is 18.65%, while the probability that all 3 balls are blue is 7.87%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a bag contains 8 red balls and 6 blue balls, and Radhika takes three balls at random from the bag, without replacement, to calculate the probability that the three balls are the same color, the following mathematical operations must be performed:

8 + 6 = 14

14 = 100

8 = X

8 x 100/14 = X

800/14 = X

57.14 = X

100 - 57.14 = 42.86

0.5714 ^ 3 = X

0.1865 = X

0.4286 ^ 3 = X

0.0787 = X

Therefore, the probability that all 3 balls are red is 18.65%, while the probability that all 3 balls are blue is 7.87%.

The width of a rectangle is 6n - 2.5 feet and the length is 2.5 + 8 feet. Find the perimeter of the rectangle.

ludmilkaskok [199]

I was thinking the measurement for ;length should be 2.5n + 8 feet since width is 6n -2.5 feet , but you gave 2.5+ 8 feet, so i will solve it in both ways

Answer: Perimeter = 5 + 12n + 11 feet ; Perimeter = 17n+ 11 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Length = 2.5+ 8 feet,

Perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as 2( l+ b)

Given that width=6n - 2.5 feet

length =2.5 + 8 feet

Perimeter =2( l+ b)= 2L + 2B

Perimeter= 2(2.5 + 8feet ) + 2( 6n - 2.5 feet)

Perimeter = 5 + 16feet + 12n - 5feet

Perimeter = 5 + 12n + 11 feet

Using Length = 2.5n+ 8 feet,

Perimeter of a rectangle is calculated as 2( l+ b)

Given that width=6n - 2.5 feet

length =2.5n+ 8 feet

Perimeter =2( l+ b)= 2L + 2B

Perimeter= 2(2.5n + 8feet ) + 2( 6n - 2.5 feet)

Perimeter = 5n + 16feet + 12n - 5feet

Perimeter = 5n + 12n + 11 feet

Perimeter = 17n+ 11 feet

What is the value of p

Serjik [45]

Answer:

p = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

p + 4/p - 4

multiplying through by p,

p×p + 4/p ×p - 4×p

p² + 4 - 4p = 0

p² - 4p + 4 = 0

factorizing,

p(p - 2) -2(p - 2) =0

(p -2)(p -2) =0

p-2 =0

p=2

Use pencil and paper to create a table of values for the equation, x - 2y = 6. Rearrange the equation into the y = mx + b form.

Lunna [17]

Answer:

y = 1/2x -3

x=-2 ⇒ y = -4

x=-1 ⇒ y = -3.5

x=0 ⇒ y = -3

x=1 ⇒ y = -2.5

x=2 ⇒ y = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to isolate y:

x - 2y = 6

-2y =6-x

y = (6-x)/-2

y = -3+1/2x

y = 1/2x -3

Now, we have to create a table with the next values (see attachment)

x=-2 ⇒ y = 1/2x -3 = 1/2(-2)-3= -4

x=-1 ⇒ y = 1/2x -3 = 1/2(-1)-3= -3.5

x=0 ⇒ y = 1/2x -3 = 1/2(0)-3= -3

x=1 ⇒ y = 1/2x -3 = 1/2(1)-3= -2.5

x=2 ⇒ y = 1/2x -3 = 1/2(2)-3= -2
