Answer: You have a better chance if you do not replace the red marble.
Step-by-step explanation:
The bag has:
5 red marbles
8 blue marbles
4 yellow marbles
3 green marbles
A total of 5 + 8 + 4 + 3 = 20
You want to draw a red marble and then a blue marble.
The probability of drawing a red marble in your first attempt is the number of red marbles divided the total number of marbles:
P1 = 5/20
now you want to draw a blue marble.
If you replace the red marble, you have 20 marbles again in the bag, then the probability of drawing a blue marble is:
P2 = 8/20
The joint probability is P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/20) = 0.1
If you do not replace the red marble, you have 19 total marbles in the bag, then the probability of taking a blue marble is:
P2 = 8/19
The joint probability is:
P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/19) = 0.105
The probability is slightly bigger if you do not replace the red marble.
12 because if you take 2 and add it to 10 you get 12
Answer: The base is 18.3ft
Sam wants to build a wooden deck on his patio, which is in the shape of a parallelogram. The area of the patio is 280 ft2. Find the base. Round your answer to the nearest foot. (height=5x)(base=6x)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given;
Area = 280ft^2
height = 5x
Base = 6x
The area of the parallelogram A can be written as;
Area = base × height
A = b×h
Substituting the values of Area, base and height.
280 = 5x × 6x
280 = 30x^2
x^2 = 280/30
x = √(280/30)
Since the base = 6x ;
Substituting the value of x.
Base = 6x = 6(√(280/30))
Base = 18.3ft
The base is 18.3ft
Answer:
250
Step-by-step explanation:
Number of labourers * Number of days worked = Total number of working days
Total number of working days to construct a 4km long road: 
Total mumber of working days to construct a 8km long road: 
Labourers: 20000 ÷ 80 = 250.
250 labourers are required.
