Answer:X+9=11

9-9|11-9

X=2

Step-by-step explanation:When the beginning number is unknown we use “x” to be a place holder. If she got 9 more books we would add 9 to the equation. Finally if 11 is the total, the end of the equation would equal 11.

A bag contains eight yellow marbles, nine green marbles, three purple marbles, and five red marbles. Two marbles are chosen from

Kryger [21]

Answer:

The expression would give the probability that one marble is yellow and the other marble is red is,

$P(Y\cdot R\ And\ R\cdot Y)=P(Y)P(R)+P(R)P(Y)$

Step-by-step explanation:

A bag contains eight yellow marbles, nine green marbles, three purple marbles, and five red marbles. So in total there are 25 marbles.

Hence,

Probability of getting yellow ball = $P(Y)=\dfrac{8}{25}$

Probability of getting red ball = $P(R)=\dfrac{5}{25}$

Probability that one marble is yellow and the other marble is red is,

$P(Y\cdot R\ And\ R\cdot Y)=P(Y)P(R)+P(R)P(Y)=\dfrac{8}{25}\cdot \dfrac{5}{25}+\dfrac{5}{25}\cdot \dfrac{8}{25}=0.128$
