Answer:

My answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability mass function of random variable X which represents the number of blue marbles drawn in 2 draws with replacement.

X | P(X)

0 | 0.390625

1 | 0.46875

2 | 0.140625

The probability of drawing exactly one blue marble = 0.46875

Complete Question

A bag contains red and blue marbles, such that the probability of drawing a blue marble is 3/8. an experiment consists of drawing a marble, replacing it, and drawing another marble. The two draws are independent. A random variable assigns the number of blue marbles to each outcome.

To write the Probabilty mass function, we have to establish that in two draws with replacement, the possible number of blue marbles that can be drawn is 0, 1 and 2.

Probability of drawing a blue marble = P(B) = (3/8)

Probability of not drawing a blue marble = P(B') = 1 - (3/8) = (5/8)

- Probability of drawing 0 blue marbles in 2 draws with replacement = P(B') × P(B') = (5/8) × (5/8) = (25/64) = 0.390625

- Probability of drawing one blue marble in 2 draws with replacement

= [P(B) × P(B')] + [P(B') × P(B)]

= (2) × (3/8) × (5/8) = (30/64) = (15/32) = 0.46875

- Probability of drawing two blue marble in 2 draws with replacement = P(B) × P(B)

= (3/8) × (3/8) = (9/64) = 0.140625

The probability mass function of random variable X which represents the number of blue marbles draan in 2 draws with replacement.

X | P(X)

0 | 0.390625

1 | 0.46875

2 | 0.140625

b) Probability of drawing one blue marble in 2 draws with replacement

= [P(B) × P(B')] + [P(B') × P(B)]

= (2) × (3/8) × (5/8) = (30/64) = (15/32) = 0.46875

So, B is the answer.

Sheila bought some rose plants and sunflower plants.There were 35 rose plants than sunflower plants.If the ratio of the rose pla
DENIUS [597]
So assuming that youmeans there were 35 MORE rose plants than sunflower seeds, then

Rose:Sunflower =8:3

rose=sunflower+35
therefor

8 units=rose
3 units=sunflowers

rose-35=sunflower
8unit-35=3unit
5unit-35=0
5unit=35
therefor
35=5unit
divide by 5
7=1unit


so 8 units of roses

7 times 8=56

3 units of sunflowers
3 times 7=21

rose=56
sunflower=21

The vertex of a parabola is (-1.5, -12.5), and its y-intercept is (0, -8)
Olenka [21]
Best to find the equation of the parabola first:

Its equation is y+12.5 = (x+1.5)^2, or y = -12.5 + (x+1.5)^2

Check the first possible x-intercept:  let x = -2.  Does y come out to 0?

y = -12.5 + (-0.5)^2  =  -12.5 + 0.25.  This is not equal to 0, so (-2,0) is not an x-intercept of this parabola.  Continue checking each possible x-intercept until you find the right one (or ones).
