A bag has 3 red marbles, 2 blue, 4 greens and 1 yellow. What is the probability of pulling a blue, putting it back

Answer: 2/25

Step-by-step explanation: Since we are replacing the marbles, these two events are independent which means that the outcome of the first does not affect the outcome of the second.

First find the probability of selecting a blue marble.

There are 2 favorable outcomes, the blue marbles,

and 10 possible outcomes, all the marbles in the bag.

So the probability of selecting a blue marble is 2/10 or 1/5.

<em>Always reduce when finding probability</em>

<em></em>

Now we find the probability of selecting a green marble.

There are 4 green marbles and 10 total so the probability of

selecting a green marble is 4/10 or 2/5.

Now we multiply the probabilities.

So we have 1/5 x 2/5 or 2/25.

CALCULUS RELATED RATES: A 20 foot ladder is leaning against a wall. The base of the ladder is placed 6 feet from the bottom of t
Daniel [21]

Answer:

2.17ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at the sketch of ladder at the beginning and after 3 seconds it starts to fall,

Distance of ladder from the wall 3 seconds after ladder starts to fall                                       =  Initial distance+  Velocity× time

= 6 + 2×3

= 12ft

Use trignometry to find out the speed of the top of ladder

cosθ= 12/20

θ= 0.825 rad

tan θ= v/2

v= 2.17ft/s

What is the equation of the line that passes through (2, -7) and (-1, 2)?
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

y = -3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form of the equation of a line is:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope, and b is the y-intercept.

First, we find the slope of the line using the two given points.

m = slope = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (2 - (-7))/(-1 - 2) = (2 + 7)/(-3) = 9/(-3) = -3

Now we plug in the slope we found into the equation above.

y = -3x + b

We need to find the value of b, the y-intercept. We use the coordinates of one of the given points for x and y, and we solve for b. Let's use point (2, -7), so x = 2, and y = -7.

y = -3x + b

-7 = -3(2) + b

-7 = -6 + b

Add 6 to both sides.

-1 = b

Now we plug in -1 for b.

y = -3x - 1

Micheal was asked to give examples of the identity property of addition and identity multiplication. Below are his answers.
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

identity property of addition-

a+0=a

identity property of multiplication-

a*1=a

Step-by-step explanation:

i cant give u an exact answer as u didnt give Micheals answers so i just gave some examples about what addition and multiplication identity property should look like. Identity property's concept is to keep the same identity. Basically, "a" shouldnt change. In addition, to keep a the same all u hv to do is add 0 as anything plus 0 is the same. for multiplication, just multiply by 1. Hope this helps!!
