The probability of selecting two jelly-filled donuts in a row is 1/ 22

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Probability is simply the chance that a given event will occur.

It is also the ratio of the number of outcomes in a set of equally likely outcomes that produce a given event to the total number of possible outcomes.

From the information given, we have that the donuts are:

  • 6 are jelly-filled
  • 10 are lemon-filled
  • 8 are custard-filled

Note that two jelly - filled donuts were taken without replacement

Probability( 2 jelly -filled donuts) = 6 / 24 × 4/ 22 = 24/ 24 × 22 = 1/ 22

Thus, the probability of selecting two jelly-filled donuts in a row is 1/ 22

Find the value of x that will make A||B<br> A-<br> 2x + 50<br> 5x - 80<br> B-<br> x = [?]
LenKa [72]

Answer:

15

Step-by-step explanation:

If A||B then the sum of given angles must be equal to 180°

2x + 5 + 5x - 80 = 180 add like terms

7x - 75 = 180 subtract 75 from both sides

7x = 105 divide both sides by 7

x = 15

Park two has 12 more benches than Park one. If 2 benches were transferred from Park two to Park one, then Park two would have 2
marta [7]

Answer:

There were 6 benches in park 1 and 18 benches in park 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the no of benches in Park 1 and y in park 2.

Given that there are 12 more benches in park 2 than 1

Writing this in equation form, we have y = x+12 ... i

Next is if 2 benches were transferred from park 2 to park 1, then we have

x+2 in park 1 and y-2 in park 2.

Given that y-2 = twice that of x+2

Or y-2 = 2x+4 ... ii

Rewrite by adding 2 to both sides of equation ii.

y = 2x+6 ... iii

i-iii gives 0 = -x+6

Or x =6

Substitute in i, to have y = 6+12 = 18

Verify:

Original benches 6 and 18.

18 = 6+12 hence I condition is satisfied

18-2 = 2(6+2)

II is also satisfied.
