Answer:

x intercept is 8, y intercept is 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x intercept is the x value for which the graph crosses the x-axis. Similar for y.

5x + 4y = 40 describes a straight line, so we should have no problem with finding those values

Let's find an x for which y = 0

5x + 4y = 40

substitute y=0

5x = 40

x = 8

Let's find a y for which x = 0

5x + 4y = 40

substitute x=0

4y = 40

y = 10

Answer:

$\boxed{0.15}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1: Solve for the total amount of marbles

To solve for the probability of certain events, a population is needed to derive this information from. In order to find this population, add up the amounts of each marble.

8 + 14 + 12 = 34 marbles

Part 2: Determine the probabilities

Now, given the amounts of marbles, simply multiply the ratios of blue marbles to total marbles and the ratio of clear marbles to total marbles to get the combined probability.

$\frac{12}{34}*\frac{14}{33} = \frac{28}{187} \approxeq 0.1497 \approxeq 0.15 * 100 = 15$

The probability of these events occurring simultaneously is 15%.
