Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

1st spin:

1 out of the 5 sections are pink, so the probability of spinning a pink on the 1st spin is 1/5.

2nd spin:

5 out of the 6 sections are not pink, so the probability of spinning a pink on the 2nd is 5/6.

Multiply the probabilities of the two spins to get the answer.

$\frac{1}{5} *\frac{5}{6} =\frac{5}{30} =\frac{1}{6}$

Write an equation for a line that is parallel to 2x+5y=15 and passes through the point (-10, 3)

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The equation of the line is,

$y = - \frac{2}{5} x - 1$

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to write it in a form of y = mx + b :

$2x + 5y = 15$

$5y = 15 - 2x$

$y = 3 - \frac{2}{5} x$

$y = - \frac{2}{3} x + 5$

When both lines are parallel to each other, they will have to same gradient value. So the equation of the line is y = (-2/5)x + b. Next, you have to find the value of b by substutituting (-10,3) into the equation :

$y = - \frac{ 2}{5}x + b$

$let \: x = - 10,y = 3$

$3 = - \frac{2}{5} ( - 10) + b$

$3 = 4 + b$

$3 - 4 = b$

$b = - 1$

Suppose you choose a marble from a bag containing 6 red marbles , 2 white marbles and 5 blue marbles you return the first marble

algol [13]

Answer:

30/169

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to know how many marbles in the bag

6 red marbles + 2 white marbles + 5 blue marbles = 13 marbles

P (red) = red / total = 6/13

We then put the marble bad so there are still 13 marbles in the bag

P(blue) = blue /total = 5/13

P (red then blue ) = P(red) *P(blue)

= 6/13 * 5/13 = 30/169

The length and width of a rectangle are ( 2x -5) and ( 3 x +4) What is the Perimeter?

Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

$\fbox{ \sf{Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle = 10x - 2}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\star{ \sf{ \: \: Length \: of \: a \: rectangle ( l ) = (2x - 5) }}$

$\star{ \sf{ \: Width \: of \: a \: rectangle ( w ) = (3x + 4)}}$

$\star{ \sf{ \: \: Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle = ?}}$

$\boxed{ \bold{ \sf{Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle = 2(l + w)}}}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{Perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle = 2(2x - 5 + 3x + 4)}}$

$\text{Step \: 1 : \: Collect \: like \: term}$

$\text{Like \: terms \: are \: those \: which \: have \: the \: same \: base}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{2(2x + 3x - 5 + 4)}}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{2(5x - 5 + 4)}}$

$\text{Step \: 2 \: : \: Subtract \: 4 \: from \: 5}$

$\text{Remember !\: : the \: negative \: and \: positive \: integers \: are \: always \: subtracted \: but \: posses \: the \: sign \: of \: the \: bigger \: integer}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{2(5x - 1)}}$

$\text{Step \: 3 \: : \: Distribute \: 2 \: through \: the \: parentheses}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{2 \times 5x - 2 \times 1}}$

$\hookrightarrow{ \sf{10x - 2}}$

$\sf{∴ \: The \: perimeter \: of \: a \: rectangle = 10x - 2}$
