Answer:  1 in 18

This is the same as writing the fraction 1/18

==============================================================

Explanation:

Since she has 36 marbles total, and the probability of picking green is 1 in 2, this means (1/2)*36 = 18 marbles are green.

Then she also has (1/3)*36 = 12 red marbles and (1/9)*36 = 4 blue marbles.

So far, that accounts for 18+12+4 = 34 marbles in all. That leaves 36-4 = 2 marbles left over that must be black, as it's the only color left.

From that, the probability of choosing a black marble is 2/36 = 1/18.

There's a 1 in 18 chance of Maddy picking a black marble.

1/18 = 0.0556 = 5.56% approximately

Describe the solutions of 5
djyliett [7]

Answer:

A value, or values, we can put in place of a variable (such as x) that makes the equation true.

Example: x + 2 = 7

When we put 5 in place of x we get: 5 + 2 = 7

5 + 2 = 7 is true, so x = 5 is a solution

Answer:

The amount of markup is 88 dollars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the whole sale price of bicycle is: $400

P = \$400

Mark up is the profit that the seller of the product makes after selling the product more in price more than its cost or buying price.

Given that mark up percentage is 22%

It can be written mathematically as:

Mark\ up = 22\%\ of\ Price\\Mark\ up = 0.22 * P\\Mark\ up = 0.22 * 400\\= \$88

Hence,

The amount of markup is 88 dollars.
