In a bag of marbles, 1/2 are red, 1/4 are blue, 1/6 are green and 1/12 are yellow. You pick a marble without looking. What color marble are MOST likely to be choose?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Its red becasue 1/2 is greater than all of them

Answer 2

The most likely color of the marble that will be chosen is red.

What is the probability?

Probability refers to a possibility that deals with the occurrence of random events.

The probability of all the events occurring need to be 1.

The formula of probability is defined as the ratio of a number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes.

P(E) = Number of favorable outcomes / total number of outcomes

We are given that;

Number of red marbles in the bag=1/2

Number of blue marbles in the bag=1/4

Number of green marbles in the bag=1/6

Number of yellow marbles in the bag=1/12

Now,

To determine the most likely color of the marble that will be chosen, we need to calculate the probability of selecting each color. The probability of selecting a red marble is 1/2, the probability of selecting a blue marble is 1/4, the probability of selecting a green marble is 1/6, and the probability of selecting a yellow marble is 1/12.

To compare the probabilities, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator for 2, 4, 6, and 12 is 12. So, we can rewrite the probabilities as:

Probability of selecting a red marble = 6/12

Probability of selecting a blue marble = 3/12

Probability of selecting a green marble = 2/12

Probability of selecting a yellow marble = 1/12

Since the probability of selecting a red marble is the highest among all the colors, it is the most likely color to be chosen.

Therefore, by probability the answer will be red marble.

Answer:

D) [tex]8g^{6} h^{4} k^{12} -h^{25}k^{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to use the laws of exponents to solve this:

Power of a Power: [tex](a^{m} )^{n} = a^{mn}[/tex]. In this case, [tex](4g^{3} h^{2} k^{4} )^{3}[/tex], all of the numbers in the parenthesis need to be multiplied to the power of 3: [tex]4^{3} g^{9} h^{6} k^{12}[/tex].

Quotient of Powers: [tex]\frac{a^{m} }{a^{n} } = a^{m-n}[/tex]. In this case, [tex]\frac{4^{3} g^{9} h^{6} k^{12}}{8g^{3} h^{2} }[/tex], all of the exponents need to be subtracted (but the 4³ (64) and 8 need to be divided): [tex]8g^{6} h^{4} k^{12}[/tex].

Use the Power of a Power again for the expression at the right: [tex](h^{5} k^{3} )^{5}[/tex]. You get: [tex]h^{25} k^{15}[/tex]. Keep the subtraction/negative sign where it is.

Together, you get: [tex]8g^{6} h^{4} k^{12} -h^{25}k^{15}[/tex].

y = 2x^2

y = 3x^2 - 4

Graph the quadratic functions y =-2x^2 + 4 on a separate piece of paper. Using those graph, compare and contrast the shape and position of the graphs.​

Answers

Answer:

y = 2x^2 is a parabola opening up with it's vertex at (0,0)... y=3x^2 -4 is also a parabola opening up, but it is 'thinner' in that it rises in y faster and it's vertex is at (0,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

all equations of the type y = ax^2 + b are parabolas centered on the y-axis, soo the vertex is always on (0,b)

If a is positive then the parabola opens up,

the bigger a is, the 'thinner' the graph is, i.e. the faster the graph rises

the value of b determines the location of the vertex, if b is added, then the vertex rises over the x-axis, if b is subtracted then the vertex is below the x-axis

To determine the number of deer in a forest, a naturalist catches, tags, and releases 15 deer. Later, 20 deer are caught, and 6 have tags. Estimate the number of deer in the forest.

Answers

Answer:

50 deer in the forest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a ratio problem and we are given three values and a single unknown (total number of deer) we can use the Rule of three to solve for the variable. We do this by multiplying the diagonal values and then dividing by the last available value. That will give us the value of the variable which in this case would be represented as x.

20 deer <======>  6 tagged

x  deer  <======>  15 tagged

(20*15) / 6 = x

300 / 6 = 50 total deer

Based on these values we can estimate that there are a total of 50 deer in the forest.

If the interest on the loan is simple interest. Both the situation will have equal amount of interest ( 5*2 =10% of total amount). Therefore, it would be better to pay back with 2% interest paid back in five years. However, if the interest is compounded annually, 5% in 2 years will have lesser interest than 2% in 5 years. Hence, Former option would be better.

Answer:

a. 9(2m+7)

b. 4(3r-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

When factoring out the greatest common factor of expressions, first list the factors of the terms. Then, determine the greatest common factor between the two terms. After, "carry" that number out of the expression through division.

a. 18m+63

Start by listing the factors of 18 and 63.

18: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18

63: 1, 3, 7, 9, 21, 63

The greatest common factor of 18 and 63 is 9, so we can carry 9 out of the expression through division:

18m+63

= 9(2m+7)

b. 12r-4

Start by listing the factors of 12 and 4.

12: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12

4: 1, 2, 4

The greatest common factor of 12 and 4 is 4, so we can carry 4 out of the expression through division:

12r-4

= 4(3r-1)
