Let red marbles = X.
The probability is 1 out of 5, written as 1/5
1/5 in terms of red marbles is equal to the number of red marbles divided by 5x, where 5x is the total number of marbles.
1/5 = x/5x
Now you have 5x total marbles, x red and 4x blue.
Add 5 more red and the new probability is:
(x+5)/(5x+5) = 1/3
Simplify:
3x+15 = 5x+5
Now solve for x:
Subtract 3x from both sides:
15 = 2x +5
Subtract 5 from each side:
2x = 10
Divide both sides by 2:
x = 10/2
X = 5
There were originally 5 red marbles.
Answer: 200+50m>1,250
Step-by-step explanation:
It starts with 200 so that is by itself. The m is added to the number that is changing every so often, in this case $50 a month. They need more than $1,250 so we use the greater than sign.
The table of the probability is missing, so i have attached it.
Answer:
μ = 0.919
The interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expected value which is also called mean value is denoted by the symbol μ. It is defined as the sum of the product of each possibility x with it's probability P(x) as the formula;
μ = Σx.P(x) = (0 × 0.272) + (1 × 0.575) + (2 × 0.121) + (3 × 0.027) + (4 × 0.004) + (5 × 0.001)
μ = 0.919
Thus, the interpretation of this is that;on the average, an individual aged 15 years or older has been involved in 0.919 marriages.
