Bag A contains black balls and white balls

Mathematics
1 answer:
deff fn [24]2 years ago
5 0

Using the probability of complementary events, it is found that q = 0.25.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the <u>number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes</u>.

When two events are complementary, the <u>sum of their probabilities is of 1</u>.

For this problem, black balls and white balls are complementary, hence:

p + q = 1.

We have that p = 3q, hence:

3q + q = 1

4q = 1.

q = 1/4

q = 0.25.

A bag contains Red, Green or Yellow balls. A ball is taken at random from the bag. The probability that it is Red is 0.4 and the
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1000 balls

(there are infinitely many solutions to this question; you can scale up 1000, use a different total, etc.)

Step-by-step explanation:

there are, of course, multiple possible numbers,

but the easiest way is to go with 1000, because we can say 375 / 1000 and 400 / 1000

(0.4 + 0.275 + 0.225 = 1)

400 out of 1000 balls are red (400/1000 = 4/10 = 0.4)

375 out of 1000 balls are green (375/1000 = 3.75/10 = 0.375)

225 out of 1000 balls are yellow (225/1000 = 2.25/10 = 0.225)

the question never gave detail as to if the answer should be the <em>lowest</em><em> </em>number of possible balls, so this value is possible.

So, a possible number of balls in this bag is 1000.
