Answer: <em>x = 1.25</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>HF - is the middle line of the triangle ABC.</em>

$HF=\dfrac{1}{2} AB\\\\HF=4x+1\\AB=12x-3\\\\4x+1=\dfrac{1}{2} \cdot (12x-3)\\\\4x+1=\dfrac{12x-3}{2} \\\\(4x+1) \cdot 2 =12x-3\\8x+2=12x-3\\8x+2-12x=12x-3-12x\\-4x+2=-3\\-4x+2-2=-3-2\\-4x=-5\\-4x \cdot (-1)=-5 \cdot (-1)\\4x=5\\4x \div 4=5 \div 4\\x=1.25$

There are 3 black marbles and 4 red marbles in a bag.

devlian [24]

3 + 4 = 7 all marables in bag
The probability that the first marable is black
$P(A_1)=\dfrac{3}{7}$
The probability that the second marable is black too
$P(A_2)=\dfrac{2}{6}=\dfrac{1}{3}$
Together:
$P(A)=P(A_1)\cdot P(A_2)=\dfrac{3}{7}\cdot\dfrac{1}{3}=\dfrac{1}{7}\to D$
