Answer:
a) 0.2778
b) 0.3611
c) 0.1389
d) 0.0833
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a total of 5 + 3 + 1 = 9 balls
a) First ball being yellow: we have 5 yellow balls, so P1 = 5/9
Second ball being yellow after one yellow was drawn: we have 4 yellows and 8 balls, so P2 = 4/8 = 1/2
Both yellows: P = P1 * P2 = 5/18 = 0.2778
b) Both blues:
P1 = 3/9 = 1/3
P2 = 2/8 = 1/4
P = P1 * P2 = 1/12 = 0.0833
Both yellows or both blues: 5/18 + 1/12 = 0.2778 + 0.0833 = 0.3611
c) First yellow: P1 = 5/9
Second red: P2 = 1/8
Pa = P1 * P2 = 5/72
or
First red: P3 = 1/9
Second yellow: P4 = 5/8
Pb = P3 * P4 = 5/72
P = Pa + Pb = 10/72 = 5/36 = 0.1389
d) First blue: P1 = 3/9 = 1/3
Second red: P2 = 1/8
Pa = P1 * P2 = 1/24
or
First red: P3 = 1/9
Second blue: P4 = 3/8
Pb = P3 * P4 = 1/24
P = Pa + Pb = 2/24 = 1/12 = 0.0833
X=_________
or
y=_________
Most likely it will be x=s.
Answer:
10
Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find the biggest number that you can divide 24, 30, and 12 by. I would go with 6, because it will simplify all the numbers into the simplest forms possible in this equation. Then, divide each number by 6.
24/6= 4
30/6= 5
12/6= 2
The answer:
4 : 5 : 2
Hope I could be of help:)
To generate the equation we set up the factors
(x+3) * (x-1) * (x-2) which equals
x^2 + 2x -3 * (x-2)
x^3 +2x^2 -3x -2x^2 -4x +6 equals
x^3 -3x -4x +6 which equals
x^3 -7x +6
