Answer:

33 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Distribution of marbles :

Blue = 10

Gray = 10

Red = 10

Yellow = 10

In other the be sure that 3 red marbles has been picked ; the fewest number of marbles that must be picked without replacement is :

To be completely sure;

Assume that all blue, yellow and gray marbles are picked first :

(10 + 10 + 10) ;

Then we can be sure that even if no red has been picked among the 30 ; the only remaining marbles are red and picking the next 3 ; means picking 3 red marbles.

Hence, to be completely guaranteed ; the fewest number of marbles that 3 red marbles are picked is :

(10 + 10 + 10 + 3) = 33 marbles

The correct answer is  ∠Y = 75°
because

    45°∠A ∼ ∠X         
         ∠B ∼ ∠Y = 75°   
    60°∠C ∼ ∠Z    
   
  45 + 60 = 105   
  180 -105 = 75

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

It appears your table includes points (4, 9) and (7, 33). The average rate of change on the interval is the slope of the line between these two points:

  m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)

  m = (33 -9)/(7 -4) = 24/3 = 8

The average rate of change is 8.

(15/8+2/5)+(-7/8) show ur work
stepan [7]
The answer is 7/5 th. You can add fractions without first having a common denominator so you would change the 8's by multiplying it by 5 to get 40 and you would multiply the 5 by 8 to get 40 as well. And the rule whatever you do to the bottom you have to do to the top so whatever you multiplied 8 by do the same for the numerator and whatever you multiplied 5 by you do the same for the numerator. So your new equation would be (75/40+16/40)+(-35/40). you would then add the numerator's across to get 56 and the denominator would stay the same so the answer is 56/40. But you have to now simplify 56/40 down to 14/10 and then once more to 7/5 which is the final answer.

If f(x)= (3+x)/(x-3), what is f(a+2)
Cloud [144]

Answer:

if f(x)= (3+x)/(x-3), what is f(a+2)

that means you'll subtitute x by (a+2)

f(a+2)=(3+a+2)/(a+2-3)

f(a+2)= (5+a)/(a-1)

f(a+2)=  5/-1

f(a+2)= -5

Hope this helps
