The answer is 1.5 or 1 1/2.
here is the how you get this answer.
1: Cross Multiply (1.2)(60)=x
2: divide x by 48
3: you should get 1.5 or 3/2
BTW x is equal to 72
To simplify the problem it would be: -18xy+18y^2
You can use any letter but when you label it x you find x
Answer:
P(red) = .3
P(yellow) = .3
75 cubes in the box
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability has to add to 1
Since the number of red cubes equals the number of yellow cubes the probability has to be the same
.4 + x+x = 1
.4 +2x = 1
2x = 1-.4
2x = .6
Divide by 2
x = .6/2
x = .3
P(red) = .3
P(yellow) = .3
We know that
P(blue) = .4 = number of blue cubes/ total number of cubes
.4 = 30/total
total = 30/.4
total = 75
