A jar contains four orange marbles numbered one to four. The jar also contains four green marbles numbered one to four. You randomly pick a marble. It is orange or has a number less than three.
Determine if the scenario involves mutually exclusive events. Then find the probability.

1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

if the answer is wrong I'm very sorry

Opposite sides are equal
.. VR = TS
.. y = x +11

.. VT = RS
.. y -3x = x +2

You can use the first equation to subsitute for y in the second equation.
.. x +11 -3x = x +2
.. 9 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . add 2x -2
.. 3 = x . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3
.. y = 3 +11 = 14 . . . . substitute for x in the equation for y

The value of x is 3.
The value of y is 14.
