Jake has a bag of 50 beads, of which some are red and the remaining are yellow. Jake randomly pulls out a bead from the bag, records the color, and replaces it in the bag. Jake has already recorded 9 red and 6 yellow beads. Based on the result, what is most likely the number of red beads in the bag?

30 POINTS PLEASE HELP PLEASE

30 red beads

Step-by-step explanation:

The data collected by Jake shows that there are 1.5 times as many red beads as yellow beads.

Red beads + Yellow beads = 50 beads total:

1.5n            + n = 50, where n represents the number of yellow beads.

Simplifying this equation, we get 2.5n = 50, so that n = 20.

If there are 20 yellow beads, then there must be (50 - 20) red beads, or

30 red beads.
