A bag contains 4 red, 3 yellow, 3 blue, and 2 white marbles, for a total of 12 marbles. If Lucia randomly picks two marbles from the bag without putting the first marble back, what is the probability that the first marble is red and the second is white?

b: |12 – x| ≤ 0.25

step-by-step explanation:      

let x be the possible lengths in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

we have been given that jaime is cutting strips of ribbon for a project. he tries to cut each piece to be 12 inches long, but sometimes he cuts it too long or too short by as much as 0.25 inch.  

we can represent this information in an inequality as:

by the definition of absolute value function we will get,

upon combining our inequalities we will get,

therefore, the inequality   describes all the possible lengths (x), in inches, of the ribbons jaime cut.

step-by-step explanation:

3/20

step-by-step explanation:

well, there are 20 outcomes, and 3 of them you want. so, 3/20
