At first there are three marbles for Sam to pick from. the possibility of drawing a colored marble is 2/3. if Sam picks one of the colored marbles, the possibility of therefore (if he'd drawn the colored marble) drawing the second colored marble is 1/2. for the possibility of those happening consequently, we have to multiply the possibilities. 2/3 * 1/2 is 2/6 is 1/3. which means Sam wins in 33.333...% cases. Julie has a better chance of winning.
adding a white marble would change the possibilities to 1/2 and 1/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 1/2 * 1/3 = 1/6 = 16.7% cases, which is even less fair.
adding a colored marble would change the possibilities to 3/4 and 2/3 consequently, meaning Sam wins in 3/4 * 2/3 = 6/12 = 50% cases, which finally makes the game fair.
Answer:
The couch is $778 and the table is $389
Step-by-step explanation:
A zero in front of the x would make this a difference of two perfect squares. All of the other option would interfere by adding another term.
Answer:
(4x + 1)(x² - 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
4x³ + x² - 8x - 2 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x²(4x + 1) - 2(4x + 1) ← factor out (4x + 1) from each term
= (4x + 1)(x² - 2)
-2 + Y = 8
Y = 10
Plug in Y to the first equation, 10 + 4 = X
X = 14
