A marble is selected at random from a jar containing 3 red marbles, 4 yellow marbles, and 6 green marbles. What is the probabi

alexgriva [62]

Answer: a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of red marbles = 3

Number of yellow marbles = 4

Number of green marbles = 6

Total number of marbles = 3 +4 +6 = 13

a) the marble is red?

Probability of getting a red marble = $\dfrac{3}{13}$

b) the marble is not yellow?

Probability of not getting yellow = $\dfrac{3+6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

c) the marble is either red or green?

Probability of getting either red or green = P(red) + P(green) = $\dfrac{3}{13}+\dfrac{6}{13}=\dfrac{9}{13}$

d) the marble is neither red nor green?

Probability of getting neither red nor green = P(getting yellow) = $\dfrac{4}{13}$

Hence, a) $\dfrac{3}{13},\ b)\dfrac{9}{13}\ c)\dfrac{9}{13},\ d)\dfrac{4}{13}$

A car rental agency has 18 vehicles available, of which 3 are convertibles. What is the probability that a randomly selected veh

Westkost [7]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{6}\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability, divide the number of desired outcomes by the total:

This will be 3/18, since there are 3 convertibles and there are 18 total cars

Simplify 3/18

= $\frac{1}{6}$

Which measurement is closest to the measure of segment W Z?

noname [10]

Like XZ divides the cord YV into two congruent parts (YW=5.27 cm=WV), this segment XZ must be perpendicular to the segment YV, then the angle XWY in triangle XWY is a right angle (90°) and the triangle XWY is a right angle.

We can apply the trigonometric ratios in triangle XWY:
Hypotenure: XY
sin 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°)/(hypothenuse)
sin 44°=YW/XY
sin 44°=(5.27 cm)/XY
Solving for XY. Cross multiplication:
sin44° XY=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by sin 44°:
sin 44° XY / sin 44° = (5.27 cm)/sin 44°
XY=(5.27/sin 44°) cm
XY=(5.27/0.694658370) cm
XY=7.586462929 cm

This value XY is the radius of the circle, then:
XZ=XY→XZ=7.586462969 cm

tan 44°=(Opposite leg to 44°) / (Adjacent leg to 44°)
tan 44°=YW/XW
tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/XW
Solving for XW. Cross multiplication:
tan 44° XW=5.27 cm
Dividing both sides of the equation by tan 44°:
tan 44° XW / tan 44°=(5.27 cm)/tan 44°
XW=(5.27/tan 44°) cm
XW=(5.27/0.965688775) cm
XW=5.457244753 cm

WZ=XZ-XW
WZ=7.586462969 cm-5.457244753 cm
WZ=2.129218216 cm
Rounded to 2 decimal places:
WZ=2.13 cm

Answer: The <span>measurement is closest to the measure of segment WZ is
2.13 cm</span>

Gavin goes for a run at a constant pace of 9 minutes per mile. Ten minutes later, Lars goes for a run, along the same route, at

sweet [91]

Answer: The answer is 35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Gavin goes for a run at a constant pace of 9 minutes per mile and after 10 minutes, Lars started running along the same route, at a constant pace of 7 minutes per mile. We need to find the number of minutes Lars will take to reach Gavin.

In 9 minutes, distance run by Gavin = 1 mile.

So, in 1 minute, distance travelled by Gavin will be

$d_G=\dfrac{1}{9}=\dfrac{7}{63}~\textup{miles}.$
