What is the probability (draw a blue marble)?

3/12

Step-by-step explanation:

Theres 3 blue marbles and 12 total marbles (including all the colors).  

1/3

Step-by-step explanation: In this problem, we're asked to find the probability of selecting a blue marble from a bag without looking.

Start with the ratio for the probability

of an event which is shown below.

P(event) = number of favorable outcomes/total number of outcomes

Since there are 3 blue marbles in a bag, the number of favorable outcomes is 3 and since there are 12 marbles in all and it's equally likely that we will choose any of the marbles, the total number of outcomes is 12 so we have 3/12.

Therefore, the probability of choosing a blue marble is 3/12.

However, notice that 3/12 can be reduced to 1/3.

So the final answer for the probability of choosing a blue marble is 1/3.

mr. flanders’ class sold 47 doughnuts and   mr. rodriquez’s class sold 38 cartons of milk

step-by-step explanation:

let x be the number of doughnuts sold by mr. flanders’ class and y be the number of cartons sold by mr. rodriquez’s class.

1. together, the classes sold 85 items, then

x+y=85.

2. both classes earn earned $104.49 for their school. if doughnuts were sold for $1.35 each, then x doughnuts costed $1.35x. if cartons of milk were sold for $1.08 each, then y cartons costed $1.08y. hence,

1.35x+1.08y=104.49.

3. solve the system of two equations:

555.99.
