The probability is p = 2/5, the correct option is the third one.

How to find the probability?</h3>
There is a total of 6 socks, such that 4 are black and 2 are blue.
Then the probability of first getting a black sock is the quotient between the number of black socks and the number of blue socks, which gives:
P = 4/6
Now there are 5 socks in total, such that 3 are black and 2 blue.
Then the probability of getting another black one is:
Q = 3/5
The joint probability (getting the two black socks) is given by the product of the individual probabilities:
p = (4/6)*(3/5) = 2/5
The correct option is the third one.

Answer:
x = 14/3 + sqrt(217)/3 or x = 14/3 - sqrt(217)/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Solve for x:
x + 4 + 1/x = (10 x)/7
Bring x + 4 + 1/x together using the common denominator x:
(x^2 + 4 x + 1)/x = (10 x)/7
Cross multiply:
7 (x^2 + 4 x + 1) = 10 x^2
Expand out terms of the left hand side:
7 x^2 + 28 x + 7 = 10 x^2
Subtract 10 x^2 from both sides:
-3 x^2 + 28 x + 7 = 0
Divide both sides by -3:
x^2 - (28 x)/3 - 7/3 = 0
Add 7/3 to both sides:
x^2 - (28 x)/3 = 7/3
Add 196/9 to both sides:
x^2 - (28 x)/3 + 196/9 = 217/9
Write the left hand side as a square:
(x - 14/3)^2 = 217/9
Take the square root of both sides:
x - 14/3 = sqrt(217)/3 or x - 14/3 = -sqrt(217)/3
Add 14/3 to both sides:
x = 14/3 + sqrt(217)/3 or x - 14/3 = -sqrt(217)/3
Add 14/3 to both sides:
Answer: x = 14/3 + sqrt(217)/3 or x = 14/3 - sqrt(217)/3
Answer:
5/8.
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 equals 6/8 and 6/8 minus 1/8 (being subtracted) is 1/8.
