The numbers DO differ by 10 if they are
- 1 and 11
- 2 and 12
- 3 and 13
- 4 and 14
- 5 and 15
Each outcome technically has two ways of occurring, but since we're taking two marbles at a time, that would be the same as saying, for instance, that drawing 1 and 11 is the same as drawing 11 and 1. We only count such an event once.
So the answer is (a) 5.
Answer;
The generator was not fair.

The number generator is not fair. This is because the correct percentage of black socks was not chosen at all.

Answer:
Gabby received
7 nickels
10 dimes
3 quarters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x----> the number of dimes
y----> the number of nickels
z---> the number of quarters
Remember that
1 dime=$0.10
1 nickel=$0.05
1 quarter=$0.25
we know that
0.10x+0.05y+0.25z=2.10 ------> equation A
x=y+3-----> equation B
z=y-4 -----> equation C
substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y
0.10(y+3)+0.05y+0.25(y-4)=2.10
0.10y+0.30+0.05y+0.25y-1=2.10
0.40y=2.10-0.30+1
0.40y=2.80
y=7 nickels
<em>Find the value of x</em>
x=y+3 -----> x=7+3=10 dimes
<em>Find the value of z</em>
z=y-4 -----> z=7-4=3 quarters
therefore
Gabby received
7 nickels
10 dimes
3 quarters
