Answer:

B. 11/18

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve using algebra.

x = 0.611111...

10x = 6.111111...

10x - x = 6.111111.. - 0.61111111..

9x = 5.5

x = 5.5/9

x = 11/18

A bag has 6695 blue marbles and 6696 red marbles. We repeatedly remove 2 marbles from the bag. If the two chosen marbles are of

Answer:

blue

Step-by-step explanation:

If two red marbles are removed, 1 red is returned. The number of reds is reduced by 1, and the number of blues is unchanged.

If two blue marbles are removed, 1 red is returned. The number of reds is increased by 1, and the number of blues is decreased by 2.

If one of each is removed, one blue is returned. The number of reds is reduced by 1, and the number of blues is unchanged.

So, at each step, the number of blue marbles is unchanged or reduced by 2. That is, it only changes by an even number. The number of blues is initially odd, so can never reach zero.

The last marble in the bag is blue.

The line 3x-8y=k cuts the x-axis and y- axis at the point A and B respectively. If the area of ∆AOB =12sq.units, find the value

Sladkaya [172]

Given:

The equation is:

$3x-8y=k$

It cuts the x-axis and y- axis at the point A and B respectively.

The area of ∆AOB =12 sq.units.

To find:

The value of <em>k</em>.

Solution:

We have,

$3x-8y=k$

Substituting $x=0$ to find the y-intercept.

$3(0)-8y=k$

$0-8y=k$

$y=\dfrac{k}{-8}$

$y=-\dfrac{k}{8}$

Substituting $y=0$ to find the x-intercept.

$3x-8(0)=k$

$3x-0=k$

$x=\dfrac{k}{3}$

Area of a triangle is:

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\times base\times height$

The height of the ∆AOB is $OB=\dfrac{k}{8}$ because distance cannot be negative and the base of the ∆AOB is $OA=\dfrac{k}{3}$ . So, the area of the ∆AOB is:
