a small glass jar is filled with colorful marbles. Six are blue, eight are yellow, five are green, and eleven are red. Marbles are chosen randomly from the jar one at a time without replacement. What is the probability of choosing a yellow marble followed by a blue one?

the probability of choosing a yellow marble is about 27%, while the probability of blue is 20%.

Step-by-step explanation:

6+8+5+11=30

8/30=0.266666666666

6/30=0.2

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
