Let x represent the number of red marbles, then blue marbles are represented by x + 31

red +  blue  = 225

x    +  x + 31  =  225

2x + 31 = 225

2x = 194

 x = 97

Blue: x + 31 = 97 + 31  = 128

Answer: 128 blue marbles

225-35=194/2 because there is two colors red and blue you divide it and then answer is 97 and then you add  35+97=132 so there are 132 blue marbles

ipn [44]

Answer: Marvin needs approximately 19 days to rent the car.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount Marvin get on a discount coupon = $25

She decided to buy insurance for each day.

Let the number of days be x

cost of insurance = $465

According to question, it becomes,

25x=465\\\\x=\frac{465}{25}\\\\x=18.6\\\\x=19\ days

Hence, Marvin needs approximately 19 days to rent the car.

1. The population of a town was 5655 in 2010. The population grows at a rate of 1.4% annually.
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We would use the formula for exponential growth model which is expressed as

y = b(1 + r)^t

Where

y represents the population after t years.

t represents the number of years.

b represents the initial population.

r represents rate of growth.

From the information given,

b = 5655

r = 1.4% = 1.4/100 = 0.014

Therefore, the equation would be

y = 5655(1 + 0.014)^t

y = 5655(1.014)^t

b) in 2022, t = 2022 - 2010 = 12 years

y = 5655(1.014)^12

y = 6682

There are 5 Snickers, 10 Baby Ruths, 13 Milky Ways, 12 Twixs and17 Almond Joys in a bowl of candy. You reach into the bowl and r
agasfer [191]

Answer: 0.2415

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : There are 5 Snickers, 10 Baby Ruths, 13 Milky Ways, 12 Twixs and17 Almond Joys in a bowl of candy.

Total candy bars : 5+10+13+12+17=57

Probability of getting a Milky Way bar=p=\dfrac{\text{No. of Milky bars}}{\text{Total candy bars}}

\Rightarrrow\ p=\dfrac{13}{57}\approx0.23

Using Binomial distribution , the probability of getting success in x trials is given by:-

P(x)=^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}, where p uis probability of success in each trial and n is sample size.

If you randomly select n= 5 candy bars, then the probability you select exactly 2 Milky Way bars Will be :_

P(2)=^5C_2(0.23)^2(1-0.23)^{3}\\\\=\dfrac{5!}{2!(5-2)!}(0.23)^2(0.77)^3\\\\=0.241505957\approx0.2415

Hence, the probability you select exactly 2 Milky Way bars = 0.2415
