Answer:

About 41.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Given:</em>

<em>A bowl has 8 green grapes and 15 red grapes. Henry randomly chooses a grape, eats it, and then chooses another grape. </em>

<em>To Find:</em>

<em>What is the probability that both grapes are red?</em>

<em>Answer choices:</em>

<em>about 39.7% </em>

<em>about 41.5%</em>

<em> about 42.5% </em>

<em>about 44.5%</em>

<em>Solution:</em>

<em>Since, there are 8 green grapes and 15 red grapes, the total number of grapes is 23 . </em>

<em>As the red grapes are 15.. </em>

<em>Thus, </em>

<em>The probability of choosing a red grape the first time is 15/23.</em>

<em>Because out of the total 23 grapes only 15 were red grape.</em>

<em> The probability of choosing the red grape the second time will be 14/22. Because the number of red grapes has already decreased by one and so is the total number of grapes after first choice</em>

<em>Hence, the probability of choosing or eating two red grapes will be :</em>

<em>15/23×14/22 </em>

<em>=105/253 </em>

<em>=0.415</em>

<em>= 41.5% </em>

<em>Therefore, the probability that both grapes are red is about 41.5%</em>

Place Brunhilda at (0,0) which is the location of the intersection of the x and y axis. I'm going to label this point A.

Move 3 units to the right to arrive at point B = (3,0). Then move 2 units up to arrive at point C = (3,2). The next step is to walk 5 units to the left and you get to point D = (-2,2). Finally, we move 2 units south to get to the point E = (-2,0)

When we talk about displacement, we only care about starting and ending points. The stuff in between doesn't matter. We start at (0,0) and end at (-2,0). So the displacement is 2 units to the right or "2 meters west"

Answer: Choice C) 2 m west

Check out the attached image to see a visual of what is going on.

Edit: I mistakenly thought she started at point A. instead she starts at point B. So the answer is actually 5 meters west.
