A jar has 6 red marbles and 4 blue marbles. If 2 marbles are chosen, one at a time without replacement, what is the probability

that both marbles will be red

1/3 Probability both are red

red picked first:

6/10

red picked second:

5/9 (9 as first red marble not replaced so 5 red marbles remaining and 4 blue marbles still)

6/10 * 5/10 = 1/3

Hope that helps!!

You are driving along the coast at 45 mph. How many minutes should it take you to get to Ventura?

valkas [14]

45 miles per hour is 3/4 mile per minute. Divide 4.8 by 0.75.

What is the slope–intercept form of the equation 4x − 2y = 9?

adelina 88 [10]

Hey there! :D

Slope intercept form: y=mx+b

4x-2y=9

Add 2y to the other side.

4x=9+2y

Subtract 9 on both sides.

4x-9=2y

Flip the equation over.

2y=4x-9 <== slope intercept form

I hope this helps!

2(8r+5)-3=4(4r-1)+11 is it an only solution or a no solution or infinite solution

pogonyaev

Answer:

Infinitely many solutions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's begin by carrying out the indicated multiplications, which must be done before any addition or subtraction:

2(8r+5)-3=4(4r-1)+11 becomes 16r + 10 - 3 = 16r - 4 + 11.

Subtracting 16r from both sides, we get 10 - 3 = - 4 + 11, or 7 = 7

This is always true, so we can conclude that this equation has infinitely many solutions.

A North American river otter wants to cross the North Saskatchewan river. It can swim at a speed of 2.75 m/s. In that location,

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

time to cross will be the distance divided by the velocity in that direction.

a) t = d/v = 45/2.75 = 16.363636... 16.4 s

In the same time that the otter is swimming cross stream, the stream is also moving perpendicularly at its own pace.

b) d = vt = 2.5(16.36) = 40.9090... 40.9 m

As velocity is a vector, An observer on the bank would see the velocity as the vector addition of the cross stream and down stream velocities

c) v = √(2.75² + 2.5²) = 3.716517... 3.72 m/s magnitude

θ = arctan2.5/2.75 = 42.2736... 42.3° downstream of a line straight across

You have 23 1/2 pounds of blueberries to store in freezer bags. Each bag holds 3 3/4 pounds of blueberries. What is the minimum

monitta

Answer:

The minimum number of freezer bags needed to store all the blueberries is 7

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To find out the number of freezer bags needed , divide the total pounds of blueberries by 3 3/4, but first convert mixed number to an improper fraction

$23\frac{1}{2}\ lb=\frac{23*2+1}{2}=\frac{47}{2}\ lb$

$3\frac{3}{4}\ lb=\frac{3*4+3}{4}=\frac{15}{4}\ lb$

$\frac{47}{2}:\frac{15}{4}=\frac{47*4}{2*15} =\frac{94}{15}=6.3\ bags$

Round up

7 bags

therefore

The minimum number of freezer bags needed to store all the blueberries is 7
