Karl’s math class is playing a number game. Each student is given a number card containing the numbers 1 to 6. The rules of the

game are that each student must put a cross through two numbers on the card and hand it in to the teacher. The teacher has a bag containing six balls numbered 1 to 6. When all the number cards have been handed in the teacher draws out two balls from the bag. Every student who had chosen the same two numbers shown on the balls wins a prize. If there are 30 students in Karl’s class, how many students are likely to win a prize? Describe your reasoning

By finding the probability, we can expect that 2 out of the 30 students will win the prize.

<h3>How many of the 30 students will win the prize?</h3>

First, we should get the probability of winning this game.

Here the students select two numbers out of 6, just to make the calculations let's say that these numbers are 1 and 2.

Now, we need to get these two numbers in two balls. The probability of getting the ball with the number 1 out of the 6 balls is:

p = 1/6

The probability of getting the ball with the number 2 out of the remaining 5 balls (because we already got one) is:

q = 1/5

The joint probability is then:

P = 2*(1/6)*(1/5) = 1/15.

Where the factor 2 comes to take in account the permutations, for the case where we first draw the number 2 and then the number 1.

Then the expected number of students that will win is equal to the probability times the total number of students:

(1/15)*30 = 2

So out of the 30 students, we can expect that 2 will win.

A sketch is drawn that is 6 inches by 9 inches. It is put in a frame of uniform width. If the area of the sketch is
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

30 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the area of the entire frame using length times height. 9*6 is 54 inches squared. Then, find the area of the middle space the same way. 6*4 is 24 inches squared. Lastly, subtract the middle from the entire frame's area. 54-24 is 30 inches squared.

PLEASE HELP DUE IN LESS THAN 5 WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!!!!!!!!!!
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

1. 1:4

2. y = 4 x X

3. yes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. every 1 minuet he cleans 4 shrimp

2. y is the number of shrimp and x is the time. if every miuet he cleans 4 shrimp, then that means you have to multiply the shrimp by the minuets. for example, if he spends 2 minuets, he cleans 8 shrimp because 2 x 4 = 8.

3. This is a proportional relationship because if you were to put this on a graph, it would be a strait line. for example, if you were to plot x (the time) on a line (this line would go horizontal) and y (shrimp) on the line (this line goes verticle) 1 minuet = 4 shrimp. 2 minuets = 8 shrimp. 3 minuets = 12 shrimp. 4 minuets = 16 shrimp.

i hope this helps. tell me if this is too confusing or if you need more help. have a great day :)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let r be radius of the cylinder.

volume of cylinder=πr²h

1728π=πr²×12

r²=1728 π/12π=144

r=√144=12

diameter=2r=2×12=24 cm
