a bag contains 9 red tiles, 10 blue tiles, and 6 green tiles. a tile is randomly drawn from the bag what is the probability of drawing a blue tile? what is the probability of drawing a red tile? what is the probability of drawing a green tile?     

  Total number of tiles is 9 + 10 + 6 =  25     

  Prob drawing a red tile         9 / 25   =   36%     

  Prob drawing a blue tile     10 / 25   =   40%     

  Prob drawing a green tile     6 / 25   =   24%

   interest rate     

   22500=22000(1+i)      

   22,000 • x  =  22,500     

                 x  =  22,500 / 22,000     

                 x  =  1.022727     

   The principal gained 0.022727 

   so, the interest rate was 2.27%  (rounded)

  if the common ratio is 2 and a5 =12 whats the first term? and how do I find it?     

  The easiest way to find it when the numbers are this small is simply to count backwards.     

  a₅  = 12     

  a₄  =   6     

  a₃  =   3     

  a₂  =   1.5     

  a₁  =   0.75

What are values of x and y ?     

x/y =3.141592653589793238     

Assuming you intended the quotient to be π,     

and that you mean integer values of x and y,     

the answer is that there are none.     

pi is an irrational value, which means it cannot     

be expressed as a ratio, i.e., a simple fraction.     

_.     

elaborate irrational numbers     

The word irrational, in the math sense, means a number that can not be expressed as a ratio.     

A ratio is a fraction composed of two integers, except that the denominator can never be zero.

 At a certain time of​ day, the angle of elevation of the sun is 50°.     

 To the nearest​ foot, find the height of a tree whose shadow is 43 feet long.     

                              height of tree     

 tangent (50^o)  =  ––––––––––––     

                             shadow length     

 1.1918  =  height / 43    

  height  =  (43)(1.1918)  =  51.2472   rounds to 51 feet

For integers x and y, what is the smallest possible positive value of 420x + 300y?     

If you call x = –2 and y = +3, you get         –840 +   900 = 60     

Likewise  x = +3 and y = –4, you get         1260 – 1200 = 60     

I'm not certain that is the lowest possible total.

How much work energy is wasted by a 30 W bulb if the bulb is left on for 3600 seconds while no one is using it?     

Answer in joules.     

Per google A.I., a joule is a watt-second,     

so (30 W) • (3600 sec)  =  108,000 joules
