Answer:
0.218

Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.
Probability = Expected outcome of event/ Total outcome
If a bag contains 3 red marbles, 7 blue marbles and 5 green marbles, the total number of marbles in the bag will be the total outcome i.e 3+7+5 = 15
If two blue marbles are drawn, the expected outcome in both cases is 7 since there are 7 blue marbles in the bag.
Probability of drawing the first blue marble = 7/15
Probability of drawing the second blue marble = 7/15
Probability that both marbles drawn will be blue = 7/15*7/15
= 49/225
= 0.218 (to nearest 1000th)

3. Try It #3 Write the point-slope form of an equation of a line with a slope of -2 that passes through the point (-2,2). Then r
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Point-slope form of equation given as $y-2=-2(x+2)$.

Slope-intercept form of equation is given as $y=-2 x-2$.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it is given that the slope of a line is -2 and it passes from (-2,2).

It is asked to write the point-slope form of the equation and rewrite it as slope-intercept form.

To do so, first find the values which are given in the question and put it in the formula of point-slope form. Simplify the equation to rewrite as slope-intercept form.

Step 1 of 2

Passing point of the line is (-2,2).

Hence, $x_{1}=-2$ and

$$y_{1}=2 \text {. }$$

Also, the slope of the line is -2.

Hence, m=-2

Substitute the above values in point-slope form of equation given by $y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right)$

$$\begin{aligned}&y-y_{1}=m\left(x-x_{1}\right) \\&y-2=-2(x-(-2) \\&y-2=-2(x+2)\end{aligned}$$

Hence, point-slope form of equation given as y-2=-2(x+2).

Step 2 of 2

Solve y-2=-2(x+2) to write it as slope-intercept form given by y=mx+c.

$$\begin{aligned}&y-2=-2(x+2) \\&y-2=-2 x-4 \\&y=-2 x-4+2 \\&y=-2 x-2\end{aligned}$$

Hence, slope-intercept form of equation is given as y=-2x-2.

Angel and Jayden were at track practice. The track is 2/5 kilometers around.  Angel ran 1 lap in 2 minutes.  Jayden ran 3 laps
choli [55]

Answer:

6/25 km in 1 min; or 0.24 km/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The info about Angel is not necessary.

Jayden runs 3 laps in 5 mins

Each lap is 2/5 km, so Jayden runs 3 x (2/5 km) in 5 min = 6/5 km in 5 min.

Distance = rate x time

6/5 km = rate (5 min)

We want to isolate r (rate), so divide both sides by 5 min

6/5 km ÷ 5 min = r

6/5 km (1/5 min) = r

6/25 km/min = r  (notice how the units worked out correctly to km/min)

So, Jayden runs 6/25 km in 1 min.
