Answer:

100 red bricks

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say red bricks is equal to 5x

Gray bricks is equal to 2x

We have an equation

2x + 5x = 140

= 7x = 140

Divide through by 7 to get the value of x

X = 140/7

X = 20

Red bricks = 5(x)

= 5(20)

= 100

Gray bricks = 2(x)

= 2(20)

= 40

Therefore in conclusion the number of red bricks is 100.

The <em>sample space </em>is the set of all the possible outputs, i.e. the possible different combinations that can be choosen.

Use the letters T, B, and X to represent, respectively, table height, bar height, and XL height,

Use letters N, W, and K to represent, respectively, the colors brown, white and black.

Each combination consists of a height (T, B or X) and a color (N, W, K); thus, your sample space shall have 3 × 3 different combinations. These are:

  • (T,N): table height and brown
  • (T, W): table height and white
  • (T, K) : table height and black

  • (B, N): bar height and brown
