Hey there! Welcome to Brainly!

Let's see how many marbles we have in total.

12+11+17+5=45

We want to find the probability of selecting a marble that is not blue. Let's see how many marbles aren't blue.

12+11+5=28

We have this probability out of 48.

28/48

We simplify, giving us 7/12 or about 58.33%.

I hope this helps!

Answer: \dfrac{28}{45}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The total number of marbles = 12+11+17+5=45

The number of blue marbles = 17

Then, the number of marbles except blue = 45-17=28

Then, the probability that you will not choose a blue marble is given by :-

\text{P(not blue)}=\dfrac{\text{Number of marbles not blue}}{\text{Total marbles}}\\\\=\dfrac{28}{45}

Hence, the probability that you will not choose a blue marble = \dfrac{28}{45}

A tunnel is in the shape of a parabola. The maximum height is 50 m and it is 10 m wide at the base as shown below. What is the v
LiRa [457]
Refer to the figure shown below.

Because the maximum height of the parabola is 50 m, its equation is of the form
y = ax² + 50

This equation places the vertex at (0,50). The constant a should be negative for the vertex to be the maximum of y.

The base of the parabola is 10 m wide. Therefore the x-intercepts are (5,0) and (-5,0).
Set x=5 and y=0 to obtain
a(5²) + 50 = 0
25a = -50
a = -2

The equation of the parabola is
y = - 2x² + 50

At 2 m from the edge of the tunnel, x = 5 - 2 = 3 m.
Therefore the height of the tunnel (vertical clearance) at x = 3 m is
h = y(3)
   = -2(3²) + 50
   = - 18 + 50
   = 32 m

Answer: 32 m

Given the values of the linear functions f (x) and g(x) in the tables, where is (f – g)(x) positive?
alexandr402 [8]

Comparing the functions, from the tables, it is found that (f - g)(x) is positive in the interval (–∞, 9) .

----------------------

  • For the subtraction function, we simply subtract both functions, thus:

(f - g)(x) = f(x) - g(x)

  • It is positive if f is greater than g, that is: f(x) > g(x).
  • It is a linear function, so one function is greater before the equality, one after.
  • They are equal at x = 9.
  • If x < 9, f(x) > g(x), and thus, (f - g)(x) is positive, which means that the desired interval is:

(–∞, 9)

andreev551 [17]
Total Volume would be 6 + 4 = 10 pints
Let's calculate the volume of alcohol in final solution:
20% * 6 = 1.2 pints
10% * 4 = .4 pints
Total = 1.6 pints of alcohol in 10
Percentage = (1.6/10) * 100 = 16 per cent.
answer is A

Grace [21]
Let the score of cowboys is x
and giants make score 9 which is twice less than the cowboys score so
giants score will be = 2x -9
and packers scored 14 more than giants that is (2x - 9) + 14
now sum of their scores is equal to 81 it means:
x + (2x - 9) + (2x -9) + 14 = 81
x + 2x - 9 + 2x - 9 + 14 = 81
5x = 81 + 4
5x = 85
x = 17
packers scored =  (2x - 9) + 14
= 2 (17) -9 + 14
=38 + 5 = 43 points
