The probability that all three randomly selected envelopes are yellow without replacement is 1/84.

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

It is an arrangement of a set of numbers from a total set where the order of the set is not relevant.

We have,

2 red envelopes​

2 blue envelopes​

2 green envelopes​

3 yellow envelopes.

Total number of envelopes = 9

The probability that all three randomly selected envelopes are yellow without replacement.

= \frac{^3C_1}{^9C_1} \frac{^2C_1}{^8C_1} \frac{^1C_1}{^7C_1}

= (3/9) x (2/8) x (1/7)

= (3x2x1)/(9x8x7)

= 1/84

Thus,

The probability that all three randomly selected envelopes are yellow without replacement is 1/84.

yaroslaw [1]
<h2>Length of track is 168 meter</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let l be the length of track.

Running speed = 4 m/s

Jogging speed = 2 m/s

Total time taken = 2 minutes 6 seconds. = 126 seconds

That is

            \frac{l}{4}+\frac{l}{2}=126\\\\0.75l=126\\\\l=168m

Length of track is 168 meter

Given the following exponential function, identify whether the change represents
Nookie1986 [14]

The percentage rate of increase is 36.2% and the exponential function represent the growth.

<h3>What is an exponential function?</h3>

It is defined as the function that rapidly increases and the value of the exponential function is always a positive. It denotes with exponent \rm y = a^x

where 'a' is a constant and a>1

We have exponential function:

\rm y = 8900(1.362)^x

If we compare with

\rm y =a(1+r)^x

If 1+r > 1

1.362 > 1

So the growth rate r is

1 + r = 1.362

r = 0.362

r = 0.362×100

r = 36.2%

Thus, the percentage rate of increase is 36.2% and the exponential function represent the growth.
