Answer:
You are selecting marbles with replacement. The marble selections (trials) are independent and the marble selection follows the binomial distribution.
The probability of selecting a red marble the first time is 1313.
(This is because 4 out of 12 marbles are red and412412 reduces to 1313.
The probability of selecting a red marble the second time is 1313.
The marble selections are independent and you can multiply the two probabilities to get the following:
probability of getting 2 reds = (13)2(13)2
=19=19.
So the probability of getting two reds is 1919.
The answer is letter c. x2-8x+24-[72/(x+3)]. If you do not know how to solve this using the long division method, you can always evaluate the options through the process of elimination first. Since the degree of the other factor is already 1 (x to the power of 1), you know that option d. is not the correct answer because you know that the other factor must be raised to the power of 2. That leaves us with a, b and c. Working backwards and multiplying the given factor (x+3) with the factor in b, gives us x3-5x2+72. So from there, you know that you have to eliminate 72, which can be removed when it is subtracted by itself. Letter c does just that. Try multiplying (x+3) and option c for yourself :).
50/1 * 1/25 = 50/25 = 2
75/1 * 1/25 = 75/25 = 3
The reduced painting is 2cm x 3cm
129 hundreths. Hope this helps.
