4 0

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability calculates the likelihood of an event occurring. The likelihood of the event occurring lies between 0 and 1. It is zero if the event does not occur and 1 if the event occurs.

For example, the probability that it would rain on Friday is between o and 1. If it rains, a value of one is attached to the event. If it doesn't a value of zero is attached to the event.

probability of not picking orange = total marbles that are not orange / total number of marbles

total marbles that are not orange = 7 +3 = 10

10 / 18

To transform to the simplest form. divide both the numerator and the denominator by 2

= 5/9

If 4x + b = 12, then x is equal to:
vlabodo [156]

Answer:

4x + 12 = 24

Subtract 12 to both sides

4x + 12 - 12 = 24 - 12

4x = 12

Divide 4 to both sides

4x ÷ 4 = 12 ÷ 4

x = 3
