Answer:
The probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, we need to know the total number of marbles that are in the bag. To do this, we will have to add up all the marble colors together.
This will give us 6 + 2 +4+ 1 = 13 marbles in total.
The next step is to find the number of yellow marbles in the bag.
We can get this from the question. There are 2 yellow marbles in the bag.
The probability of selecting a yellow marble can be obtained by dividing the number of yellow marbles by the total number of marbles in the bag
This will give us 2/13.
Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13

Answer: One plain roll is 4 dollars and one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
Step-by-step explanation:
lets start by saying
rolls of plain wrapping paper = x
rolls of shiny wrapping paper = y
Kathryn sold 4 plain rolls and 3 shiny rolls for 34 dollars.
4x+3y=34
Eugene sold 4 plain rolls and 2 shiny rolls for 28 dollars
4x+2y=28
Both equations will look like this.
4x+3y=34
-1(4x+2y)=(28)-1
we can multiply the second equation by -1 to get y alone. (doesn't matter which equation). Once you do that, the positive 4x and the negative 4x cancel out, 3y-2y=1y and 34-28=6. you are left with
1y=6 so one shiny roll is 6 dollars.
now use that price to find the cost of the plain roll.
lets use Kathryn's equation
4x + 3(6)=34
4x + 18= 34
-18 -18
4x=16. Divide by 4 to find cost of one plain roll.
16÷4=4. One plain roll costs 4 dollars.
Lets check. Using Kathryn's equation,
4(4) + 3(6)=34
16+18=34
34=34. We are right.
