Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If given tables in the picture show the proportional relationship,

Number of wheels (w) ∝ Number of buses (b)

w ∝ b

w = kb

Here, k = proportionality constant

k = \frac{w}{b}

Number of buses (b)           Number wheels (w)             Wheels per bus (\frac{w}{b})

          5                                           30                               \frac{30}{5}=6              

          8                                           48                               \frac{48}{8}=6

         10                                           60                               \frac{60}{10}=6

         15                                           90                               \frac{90}{15}=6

Here, proportionality constant is 6.

Similarly, If number of wheels (w) ∝ Number of train cars (t)

w = kt

Here, k = proportionality constant

k = \frac{w}{t}

Number of train cars(t)          Number of wheels(w)     Wheels per train car (\frac{w}{t})

              20                                        184                           \frac{184}{20}=9.2

              30                                        264                           \frac{264}{30}=8.8

              40                                        344                           \frac{344}{40}=8.6

              50                                        424                           \frac{424}{50}=8.48

Since, ratio of w and t is not constant, relation between number of wheels and number of train cars is not proportional.

: Naveen has a bag that contains 6 blue marbles, 3 green marbles, and 1 red marble. He will draw one marble randomly from the ba
loris [4]

Answer:

​If Naveen wants to make sure that drawing a red marble is equally likely as drawing a different color marble, then he could add ***8 red marbles to the bag***

Step-by-step explanation:

The bag that contains 6 blue marbles, 3 green marbles, and 1 red marble.

Naveen wants to make sure that drawing a red marble is equally likely as drawing a different color marble, then he could add what?

Current total number of marbles = 10

Probability of drawing a red marble = (1/10)

Probability of drawing marble of other colour = (9/10)

And we want the the probability of drawing a red marble and one of the other marble to be the same.

This means we have to add a number of red marbles.

Let the number of red marbles to be added be n.

After adding n red marbles, the probability of drawing a red marble = (n+1)/(10+n)

Probability of drawing one of the other marbles = 9/(10+n)

And the probabilities are equal

(n+1)/(10+n) = 9/(10+n)

n+1 = 9

n = 9 - 1 = 8

This makes the number of red marbles 9 and total number of marbles 18.

The probability of drawing a red marble becomes (9/18) = 0.5

Probability of drawing a marble of other colour = (9/18) = 0.5 also.
