Given:

Number of red marbles = 4

Number of blue marbles = 8

Number of yellow marbles = 6

Number of green marbles = 2

To find:

The probability of getting a blue marble then a red marble, i.e., P(blue, red).

Solution:

Using the given information,

The total number of marbles = 4+8+6+2

                                                = 20

Probability of getting a blue marble in first draw is

P(Blue)=\dfrac{\text{Number of blue marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}}

P(Blue)=\dfrac{8}{20}

P(Blue)=\dfrac{2}{5}

Maria selects a marble, puts it back and then selects a second marble. It means the total number of marbles remains the same.

P(red)=\dfrac{\text{Number of red marbles}}{\text{Total number of marbles}}

P(red)=\dfrac{4}{20}

P(red)=\dfrac{1}{5}

Now, the probability of getting a blue marble then a red marble is

P(blue,red)=\dfrac{2}{5}\times \dfrac{1}{5}

P(blue,red)=\dfrac{2}{25}

Therefore, the required probability P(blue, red) is \dfrac{2}{25}.

John is saving $6 a week. He has already saved $28. How many weeks will it take John to reach his goal of $100?
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

12 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

If John is aiming to save $100, with $6 a week and he has already saved $28. The leftover amount to be saved is $100 - $28 = $72

In one week → $6

2 weeks → $12

3 weeks → $18

and so on..

\frac{72}{6} = 12

John will need 12 more weeks to save a total of $100.
