A bag contains 16 green marbles, 12 red marbles, 15 white marbles, and 7 black marbles. What is the probability of drawing a green marble out of the bag?

A. 1/16


B. 1/4


C. 8/25


D. 8/17

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

System of the inequalities is,

y ≥ 2x

y < x + 4

By satisfying these inequalities with the points given in the options we can get the answer.

Option (A). (2, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(2)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 2 + 4

5 < 6

True

Therefore, Option (1) is the answer.

Option (B) (1, 6)

y ≥ 2x

6 ≥ 2(1)

6 ≥ 2  

True.

y < x + 4

6 < 1 + 4

6 < 5

False.

Therefore, it's not the solution.

Option (C) (2, 3)

y ≥ 2x

3 ≥ 2(2)

3 ≥ 4

False.

y < x + 4

4 < 2 + 4

4 < 6

True.

Therefore, It's not the solution.

Option (D) (1, 5)

y ≥ 2x

5 ≥ 2(1)

5 ≥ 4

True.

y < x + 4

5 < 1 + 4

5 < 5

False.

Therefore, It's not the solution.

In accordance with given data correct answer is

RD=  85% * 50 = 0.85 * 50 = 42.5 ounces of red dye.

Good luck!!!

Final answer:

Phil used 42.5 ounces of red dye in the process of making 50 ounces of purple dye, given that the mixture was 85% red dye.

Explanation:

The question is asking us to determine how many ounces of red dye was used in the mixing process to produce 50 ounces of purple dye. Phil used a solution of 15% blue dye and 85% red dye. Therefore, the amount of red dye used can be computed by taking 85% of the total amount of dye made, which is 50 ounces.

To do this, we multiply the total ounces of dye (50 ounces) by the percentage of red dye (85%) used in the mixture. Mathematically, this is represented by the equation: (85/100) * 50.

Therefore, Phil used 42.5 ounces of red dye in the mixing process to make the purple dye.

Answer:

In conclusion, the only possible outcome is $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, so let's just dive in head on. Since we know that all the angles in a pentagon must add up to $540^{\circ}$ and that there are $5$ angles in a pentagon, we know that $61^\circ$ is the third angle,  $c$, of the pentagon. We also know that $a^\circ,$ $b^\circ,$ $c^\circ,$ $d^\circ,$ and $e^\circ,$ are all less than $180$. We know that in a regular pentagon all angles are $108^\circ$, however, the median angle is $61^\circ$ so we know that this is not a regular pentagon.

Now, since the median of our pentagon is $61^\circ$, the other numbers would center around $61$. With this information, we can figure out many solutions. However, there is one very important piece of information we almost forgot- the mode! What this means is, you cannot have an answer like $60^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $179^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$ since there is only one mode.

Now let's figure out what the mode is. Is it $61$, or is it another number? Let's explore the possibilities of the mode being $61.$ If the mode is $61,$ it could either be $b$ or $d$. Let's first think about it being $b$. This would mean that the data set is $a^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $d^\circ,$ and $e^\circ.$ The numbers would still need to add up to $540,$ so let's subtract $122$ (the two $61$'s) from $540$ to see how many more degrees we still need. We would get $418$. This means that $a,$ $d,$ and $e$ added together is $418$. If it is true that $b$ is $61,$ this would mean that $a, \leq61, 61, d, \leq e.$ If this is true, there could only be one possibility. This would be $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$. If we changed $a$ to $60$, then there would be two modes. $a$ can't be $59$ since then $e$ would be $180$. $a$ also can't be any higher than $61$ since then it would not be $a$ at all. So basically, if $b$ were $61$, then the data set could only be $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.

But what if $d$ were $61?$ Then the data set would be $a, \leq b, 61, 61, \leq e.$ It would not be possible. This is because the highest number $e$ can be is $179.$. If this is, then we still have $239^\circ$ left to go. $a$ and $b$ would have to be greater than $61$, and this would not be possible because then it would not be $a$ and $b$ at all.  

Okay, we're almost done. What if the mode isn't $61$ at all, but a whole different number? This would either mean that $a=b$ or that $d=e$. If $d=e$ and $d=179,$ this means that $a$ and $b$ would have to both be $60.5$. We can't have two modes, and $b$ could not be $61$ because we can't have two modes. If $d$ were smaller, like $178$, then $a+b$ would need to be $123$ and this is not possible since that would be over the median of $61$. $d$ cannot be larger since that would go over the max of $179$.  

If $a=b$, let's think about if $a$ were $60$. $d+e$ would need to equal 359, and once again we can't have two modes, and $d$ could not be $179$ because $e$ cannot be $180$. If $a$ were smaller, like $59$, then $d+e$ would need to be $361$ and this is not possible since that would be over the max of $179$. $a$ cannot be larger since that would exceed the median of $61$.  

In conclusion, the only possible outcome is $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $61^\circ,$ $178^\circ,$ and $179^\circ$.
