A bag contains several marbles. Each marble is purple, white or blue. The probability of choosing a purple marble is 1/4 and the probability of choosing a white marble is 1/8. What is the probability of choosing a blue marble. Write your answer as a fraction

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

if i were to assume, there are 8 marbles.

1 out of the 8 are white,

2 out of the 8 are purple

so the final 5 should be blue.

the probability of picking a blue marble should be 5/8.

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Three colors

Purple - 2/8 or 1/4

White - 1/8

Blue - ?

Combine White and Purple. You get 3/8. Subtract from all marbles, 8/8. You get 5/8.

maximum area = xy = (16)(32) = 512 ft2

to maximize the area of the garden, the side of the fence parallel to the side of the house should be 32 ft long, and the other two sides should both have length 16 ft.'

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
