The number of red marbles in the bag is 19 and the number of blue marbles is 8.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Let R be the number of red marbles
Let B be the number of blue marbles
According to the question,
R + B = 27 (Total number of marbles is 27
) -1
R = 3B - 5 (Number of red marbles is 5 less than 3 times the number of blue marbles
)
Substitute the right half of the second equation for R in the first equation
3B - 5 + B = 27
Add 5 to each side and combine the Bs
4B = 32
Divide both sides by 4
B = 8
Use this value of B in the first equation
R + 8 = 27
R = 19
Therefore, number of red marbles in the bag is 19 and the number of blue marbles is 8.
Answer:
a. 0.047
b. Unlikely.
Step-by-step explanation:
a. The probability of a test result being wrong for a person not using mrijuana = 8 / 170 = 0.047.
b. As the probability for a wrong result is < 0.05 we can say that the test is unlikely to be wrong.
Answer:
Its geometric because each number is being divided by 2.
9 Floor
32 Rooms
To find total multiply 9 and 32 to get 288 total rooms.
The straight line is perpendicular to y = -3x + 4.
Therefore, the gradient of the straight line must be 3.
The equation of the straight line is y = 3x + 2.
