Ajar contains four blue marbles and two red marbles. suppose you choose a marble at random, and do not replace it. then you choose a second marble. find the probability of each event to the nearest tenth of a percent. a. the first marble is blue and the second is red b. both marbles are blue

a)

b)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information:

Number of red marbles in jar = 2

Number of blue marbles in jar = 4

Total number of marbles in jar = 6

Marbles are drawn from jar without replacement.

Formula:

a) Probability(First marble is blue and second is red)

=Probability(Drawing a blue marble in first draw) × Probability(Drawing a red marble in second draw)

b)  Probability(First marble is blue and second is also blue)

=Probability(Drawing a blue marble in first draw) × Probability(Drawing a blue marble in second draw)

2 & 7

step-by-step explanation:

he climbs 300 ft/hr at a constant rate. the peak is at 1,500 ft.

when going up, he reaches 600 ft in 2 hours. remember, that he is going in a constant rate. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = 2

assuming that he takes the same route back (meaning that it's a 1500 ft route back, you can solve.

note also that you are solving when he gets back to 600 ft after he reaches the peak.

first, find the amount of hours it takes to get up the peak. divide the total amount (1500), with the ft/her (300) to get the amount of hours (x):

1500/300 = x

x = 5

it takes jamie 5 hours to get up. now, he is returning down, and reaches 600 (his current destination). remember that he climbs at a constant 300 ft/hr. divide 600 with 300:

600/300 = x

x = 2

now add the two numbers together.

x = 5 + 2 = 7

jamie takes 7 hours to go up the mountain and reach his current position when descending.

(total amount/constant rate) = (time).

remember that it is a constant rate, so in total, when he gets back down the mountain, it will take the same amount of time as when he goes up. the total amount for the round trip is: 5 + 5 = 10.
