Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of 19 by 29 rectangle = 551 sq ft
White space:
Area of large triangle = 0.5*15^2 = 112.5 sq ft
Area of 15 by 14 rectangle = 210 sq ft
Area of small triangle = 0.5*4^2 = 8 sq ft
Shaded area = 551 - 112.5 - 210 - 8 = 220.5 sq ft
Hello!
We have two probabilities we can use; we have 170/400, for our experiment, and 1/2, which is our theoretical probability.
To solve, we just multiply the two probabilities.
=0.2125≈21.3
Therefore, we have about a 21.3% chance of this event occurring.
I hope this helps!
Answer: You have a better chance if you do not replace the red marble.
Step-by-step explanation:
The bag has:
5 red marbles
8 blue marbles
4 yellow marbles
3 green marbles
A total of 5 + 8 + 4 + 3 = 20
You want to draw a red marble and then a blue marble.
The probability of drawing a red marble in your first attempt is the number of red marbles divided the total number of marbles:
P1 = 5/20
now you want to draw a blue marble.
If you replace the red marble, you have 20 marbles again in the bag, then the probability of drawing a blue marble is:
P2 = 8/20
The joint probability is P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/20) = 0.1
If you do not replace the red marble, you have 19 total marbles in the bag, then the probability of taking a blue marble is:
P2 = 8/19
The joint probability is:
P = P1*P2 = (5/20)*(8/19) = 0.105
The probability is slightly bigger if you do not replace the red marble.
Answer:
5 hours 22 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us represent the number of hours that Jeri worked as: h
Jeri's lawn service charges an initial fee of $4.50 plus $3 an hour
= $4.50 + $3 × h
= $4.50 + 3h
If she is asked to start before 7 a.m. Jeri charges 1.5 times the regular amount.
= 1.5 × ($4.50 + 3h)
If she made $29.25 on a job that began at 5 am, how many hours did Jeri work?
Hence, we have the final equation;
= 1.5 × ($4.50 + 3h) = $29.25
= 6.75 + 4.5h = 29.25
Collect like terms
= 4.5h = 29.25 - 6.75
4.5h = 22.5
h = 22.5/4.5
h = 5.3571428571
Approximately= 5.36 hours
1 hour = 60 minutes
0.36 hour =
60 × 0.36
= 21.6 minutes
Approximately ≈ 22 minutes
Therefore, Jeri worked for 5 hours 22 minutes
