There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles. The probability of only choosing a red marble is 5/8. There are 25 red marbles in the bag and each is likely to be chosen. How many marbles should there be in total?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:  40

25 red, 15 blue

======================================================

Work Shown:

b = number of blue marbles = unknown

r = number of red = 25

T = number total = 25+b

r/T = probability of getting red = 5/8

r/T = 5/8

25/(25+b) = 5/8

25*8 = 5(25+b) .... cross multiplication

200 = 125+5b

200-125 = 5b

75 = 5b

5b = 75

b = 75/5

b = 15

We have 15 blue marbles and 25 red marbles. This means there are T = r+b = 25+15 = 40 marbles total.

The proportion of red is r/T = 25/40 = (5*5)/(5*8) = 5/8 to help confirm we have the correct value for b.

Answers

Answer: D; B

Step-by-step explanation: 1 and 4 are alternate exterior angles if you use process of elimination, all the other pairs are, alternate exterior, corresponding or same side interior angles. angles 1 and 4 are in between lines a and b when lines a and b have the transversal of c. with process of elimination, c is the only logical answer, as 1 and 4 both lie on that line. which leaves you with two answers. if you draw out lines a and b with a transversal of c and the lines b and e with the transversal of c, then B is the only logical answer. goodluck :) i just finished this unit :D

How do you solve this

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

1. First, we should realize that the angle with 16x + 7 and the angle with 5x + 5 are same-side interior angles, meaning they add up to 180 degrees. This means that 16x + 7 + 5x + 5 = 180.

2. (Solving)

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

[tex](16x+5x)+(7+5)=180[/tex] [tex]21x + 12 = 180[/tex]

Step 2: Subtract 12 from both sides.

[tex]21x + 12 - 12 = 180 - 12[/tex] [tex]21x = 168[/tex]

Step 3: Divide both sides by 21.

[tex]\frac{21x}{21}=\frac{168}{21}[/tex] [tex]x = 8[/tex]

Step 4: Check if solution is correct.

[tex]16(8)+7+5(8)+5=180[/tex] [tex]128 + 7 + 40 + 5 = 180[/tex] [tex]135 + 40 + 5 = 180[/tex] [tex]175 + 5 = 180[/tex] [tex]80= 80[/tex]

Therefore, x = 8.

Please answer for last question

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

since you know already that it is a linear equation with a constant change rate (slope), you don't know the equation itself yet ?

you found the change rate (slope).

it is x goes up by 2, and y goes down by 6.

the slope is the ratio y/x representing the y and x changes, and it is always the factor of x.

"down" or "left" means "-","up" or "right" means "+".

the slope here is therefore

-6/2 = -3/1 = -3

so, we know the line function looks like

y = -3x + b

to get b we use one of the x y pairs like (1. 4)

4 = -3×1 + b

7 = b

and the full line function is

y = -3x + 7

The component form of a vector indicates the changes in x and y from the
starting point to the endpoint. What is the component form of this vector?

Answers

The vector’s component form is (-8, 2)

It moves negative 8 units towards the left. 4 - 8 = -4. And it moves positive 2 units upwards -1 + 2 = 1.

We will see that the component form of the given vector is <-8, 2>, so the correct option is D.

How to get the component form of the vector?

For a vector with starting point (a, b) and endpoint (c, d), the component form is:

<c -a, d -b>

In this case, we can see that the starting point is (4, -1), and the endpoint is (-4, 1)

Then the component form of the vector is:

<-4 - 4, 1 - (-1) > = <-8, 2>

So the correct option is D.

2. A line passes through the points (4,7) and
(8, 6). The line also passes through the point
(a, 3.5) for what value of a? ​

Answers

Answer:

a = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = (7-6)/(4-8) = -1/4

y-intercept = 7 - (-1/4)(4) = 8

Equation of the line: y = - 1/4x + 8

(Substitute y for 3.5. When y is 3.5, what is x)

3.5 = - 1/4x + 8

3.5 - 8 = - 1/4x

(-4.5) / (- 1/4) = x

x = 18

4a + 2b + c

9a + 3b + c

4a + 2b + c - a + b + c = 20 - 11

4a + 2b + c - a + b + c = 9

3a + b = 9

9a + 3b + c - 4a + 2b + c = 35 - 20

5a + b = 15

-2a = -6

a = -6/-2

a = 3

Substitute to find the values of b & c

For b

15 + b = 15

b = 15 - 15

b = 0
