Answer:
11/306
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the ratio of the number of possible outcome to the number of total outcome.
Given that there are 4 red, 8 yellow, and 6 blue socks in a drawer where the probability of picking a red, yellow and blue socks be p(r), p(y), and p(b) respectively.
The probability of reaching into the drawer without looking and drawing out 2 blue socks
= 6/(4 + 8 + 6) * 5/(4 + 8 + 5)
= 6/18 + 5/17
= 11/306
The number = 7
(2x-5)4=36
2x-5=9 <----- divide by 4
2x=14 <----- add 5
x=7 <----- divide by 2
If you have a value for a variable you plug that value in and see if the resulting answer is true.
