Consider rolling two fair dice one 3-sided the other 5-sided

Ne4ueva [31]

Since the dice are fair and the rolling are independent, each single outcome has probability 1/15. Every time we choose

$1\leq x\leq 3,\quad 1\leq y \leq 5$

We have $P(X=x)=\frac{1}{3}$ and $P(Y=y)=\frac{1}{5}$ , because the dice are fair.

Now we use the assumption of independence to claim that

$P(X=x, Y=y) = P(X=x)\cdot P(Y=y) =\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot\dfrac{1}{5} = \dfrac{1}{15}$

Now, we simply have to count in how many ways we can obtain every possible outcome for the sum. Consider the attached table: we can see that we can obtain:

2 in a unique way (1+1)
3 in two possible ways (1+2, 2+1)
4 in three possible ways
5 in three possible ways
6 in three possible ways
7 in two possible ways
8 in a unique way

This implies that the probabilities of the outcomes of $W=X+Y$ are the number of possible ways divided by 15: we can obtain 2 and 8 with probability 1/15, 3 and 7 with probability 2/15, and 4, 5 and 6 with probabilities 3/15=1/5

A nursery has two hundred 7-gallon palm trees to sell, consisting of coconut palm trees, saw palmetto palm trees and christmas p

motikmotik

Total number of trees available to be sold = 200

Selling price of coconut palm trees sell (Pco)= $75 each

Selling price of saw palmetto palm trees sell (Pp) = $45 each

Selling price of christmas palm trees (Pch) = $30 each

Number of saw palmetto palm trees (Np) = 3 × Number of christmas palm trees (Nch)

Let number of coconut palm trees be Nco

Total price paid by developer for all the palm trees = 12,300

So Total number of trees = Nco + Np + Nch

⇒ 200 = Nco + 3×Nch + Nch

⇒ 200 = Nco + 4Nch ................ (i)

Total selling price of trees = Sco × Nco + Sp × Np + Sch × Nch

⇒ 12,300 = 75×Nco + 45×Np + 30×Nch

Dividing above equation by 5

⇒ 2,460 = 15Nco + 9Np + 6Nch

Substituting Np = 3Nch in the above equation

⇒ 2,460 = 15Nco + 9 (3Nch) + 6Nch

⇒ 2,460 = 15Nco + 33Nch ................ (ii)

Mutiply (i) with 15 and subtract from (ii)

⇒ 2,460 - 3,000 = 15Nco + 33Nch - 15Nco - 60Nch

⇒ -540 = 33Nch - 60Nch

⇒ -540 = 27Nch

⇒ Nch=20

If Nch = 20, Np = 3×20 = 60

Since Nco + Np + Nch = 200

⇒ Nco = 200 - (80)

⇒ Nco = 120

Hence, the developer purchased 120 coconut palm trees, 20 christmas palm trees and 60 saw palmetto palm trees.
