Break it down into two parts. First, what is the probability of drawing a blue marble on the first draw?Since there are 5 blue marbles and 10 total, the probability is 5⁄10, or 1/2. Now since we no longer have that blue marble, there are 4 blue marbles and 9 total. The chances of drawing a blue marble are 4/9. Therefore, the chance that both marbles drawn are blue is the chance that the first one is blue times the chance that the second one is blue. 1/2 * 4/9 = 4/18 = 2/9 Remember, math is always trying to trick you. It wants you to try and do the whole big problem at once, which can be difficult. Break it down into smaller problems, then use your answers to small parts to find the answer to the big question.

Answer:
dh/dt = 0,07 ft/min
Step-by-step explanation:
The swimming pool has the shape of right circular cylinder, therefore its volume is
V(c) = π*x²*h
Where x is the radius of the base and h the height
We take differentiation on both sides of the equation to get:
dV/dt = π*x²*dh/dt
The rate of change in height of water in the pool, is independent of the height of the water, since the pool is a right crcular cylinder, and dV/dt is constant at 8 ft³/min.
Then:
8 = π*x²*dh/dt
dh/dt = 8 / π*x²
dh/dt = 8/113,04
dh/dt = 0,07 ft/min
This is a proportion question.
0.5:40 miles :: 5:x
Translated into division you get 0.5/40 = 5/x Cross multiply
0.5 x = 40 * 5 combine the right
0.5x = 200 divide by 0.5
0.5x/0.5 = 200/0.5 Divide
x = 400
