You have a jar of marbles in front of you with the following colors: 12 are red, 17 are blue, 8 are yellow, and 13 are white. Suppose you had a larger jar of 250 marbles with the same ratio of colors. What is the probability of selecting either a red or white marble from the larger jar?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 12+17+8+13=50, meaning that if we wanted to scale the amount of marbles to 250, we would need to multiply by 5.

So, if we multiply each amount of marbles times 5, that would give us:

60 red marbles

85 blue marbles

40 yellow marbles

65 white marbles

now, the probability of selecting a red or white marble from the jar of 250 marbles, you would need to add together the amount of white and red marbles, and divide that by 250.

60 + 65= 125 / 250

Wwe could stop there if the question wants the answer in fractions, and just simplify, but if it needs the answer in a percentage, then you would still divide 125 by 250.

125/250=0.5

0.5 is equal to 50%

(If the fraction needs to be simplified it would be 5/10, which is also 1/2.)

To cover a rectangular region of her yard, Penny needs at least 217 square feet of sod. The length of the region is 15.5 feet. What are the possible widths of the region?

L=length=15.5 ft; W=width; A=area=>217 sq ft

L*W=>217 sq ft Divide each side by L

W=>217 sq ft/L

W=>217 sq ft/15.5 ft=>14 feet

ANSWER: To cover at least 217 sq ft. the width must be at least 14 feet.

Answer:

  at least 14 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangular region is the product of its length and width. We are told the area must be at least some value.

  A = LW . . . . . . . . . area formula

  A ≥ 217 ft² . . . . . . . . . given constraint

  (15.5 ft)W ≥ 217 ft² . . . . . . substitute LW for A, use given length

a number 1-72 is chosen at random find each probability
P( multiple of 9)

Answers

The selection of a random number from 1 - 72 is an illustration of probability, and the probability of selecting a multiple of 9 is 1/8

How to determine the probability?

The sample size is given as:

n = 72

There are 8 multiples of 9 from 1 to 72.

So, the probability that a multiple of 9 is selected is:

P(Multiple of 9) = 8/72

Simplify

P(Multiple of 9) = 1/9

Hence, the probability of selecting a multiple of 9 is 1/8

What is the volume of the prism? Use the formula V equals B h. Enter the answer in the box.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

b = 4 × 3.5 = 14 cm²

h = 2,1 cm

then

[tex]V=b\times h[/tex]

   [tex]=14\times2.1[/tex]

   [tex]=29.4\ cm^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the rectangle is 4cm and the width is 3.5cm

The area of the rectangle is A = lw

The base area is 4 x 3.5 or 14cm squared

Write the equation of the line that passes through the point
(1,−5) and with the slope of −3. Write the in slope-intercept form.

Answers

Answer:

y = -3x -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!!

We're given that a line has a slope of -3 and it contains the point (1, -5)

We want to write the equation of this line in slope-intercept form

Slope-intercept form is given as y=mx+b, where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

As we are already given the slope, we can immediately plug it into the equation.

Replace m with -3 in y=mx+b.

y = -3x + b

Now we need to find b

As the equation passes through the point (1, -5), we can use its values to help solve for b.

Substitute 1 as x and -5 as y:

-5 = -3(1) + b

Multiply

-5 = -3 + b

Add 3 to both sides

-2 = b

Substitute -2 as b into the equation

y = -3x - 2

Hope this helps!

What is the mean absolute deviation of 4,6,7,10,13

Answers

Answer:

2.8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mean aboslute deviation, you first need to find the mean:

(4 + 6 + 7 + 10 + 13)/5 = 8

Then, subtract the mean from each value, and take the abosulte value. Absolute value is essentially the same number, but if it is negative, make it positive.

4 - 8 = -4 = 4

6 - 8 = -2 = 2

7 - 8 = -1 = 1

10 - 8 = 2 = 2

13 - 8 = 5 = 5

Then, take the mean of all of these values:

(4 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 5)/5 = 2.8

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRSINLIEST!!!!!

Answers

Answer:

a) Yes

b) Not a right triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a)

The sum of the lengths of any 2 sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the 3rd side.

7 + 8 = 15 > 9

7 + 9 = 16 > 8

8 + 9 = 17 > 7

Therefore, a triangle with side lengths 7, 8 and 9 can be made.

Part (b)

To determine if the triangle is a right triangle, use Pythagoras' Theorem:

a² + b² = c² (where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse)

The hypotenuse is the longest side, therefore:

a = 7b = 8c = 9

Substituting these values into the formula:

⇒ a² + b² = c²

⇒ 7² + 8² ≠ 9²

⇒ 113 ≠ 81

As  7² + 8² ≠ 9²  then the triangle is not a right triangle.

selecting a card with a dolphin, sunflower, or landscape design
selecting a card with a bird or puppy design
Now, determine the events that have the highest and lowest probabilities and graph the values on the number line

Answers

The probability of selecting a card with a sunflower or butterfly design is 1/4, and the probability of selecting a card with a lily, daisy, puppy, or bird design is 1/2.

What is probability?

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

Total outcomes = 4×8 = 32  (because 4 cards of 8 design)

The probability of selecting a card with a sunflower or butterfly design:

= 4/32  +  4/32

= 8/32 = 1/4

The probability of selecting a card with a lily, daisy, puppy, or bird design:

= 4(4/32)

= 1/2

The probability of selecting a card with a landscape design:

= 4/32 = 1/8

The probability of selecting a card with a dolphin, sunflower, or landscape design:

= 3(4/32)

= 3/8

Similarly, we can calculate the rest of the probability.

Thus, the probability of selecting a card with a sunflower or butterfly design is 1/4, and the probability of selecting a card with a lily, daisy, puppy, or bird design is 1/2.
