<h3>Answer:  21/10660</h3>

========================================================

Work Shown:

7 green + 12 blue + 19 yellow + 3 red = 41 total

A = probability of selecting red first (no replacement)

A = 3/41

B = probability of selecting green second (no replacement)

B = 7/40

C = probability of getting blue third (no replacement)

C = 12/39

D = probability of getting yellow fourth (no replacement)

D = 19/38 = 1/2

E = probability of getting red, green, blue, yellow in that order (no replacement)

E = A*B*C*D

E = (3/41)*(7/40)*(12/39)*(1/2)

E = (3*7*12)/(41*40*39*2)

E = 252/127920

E = 21/10660

When converting to decimal form, this is approximately 0.00196998

There's about a 0.196998% chance of getting this sequence of gumballs if they aren't replaced.

Cranberry juice costs $6.30 per quart and apple juice costs $3.60 per quart. Terrence wants to know how many quarts q of cranber
Korvikt [17]

We know that:

Cost (Cranberry Juice): 6.3 per quart

Cost (Apple Juice): 3.6 per quart

Quantity (Apple Juice): 4 quarts

Quantity (Cranberry Juice): q quarts

Further we know that Terrence wants the cost of the juice to be 4.5 per quart

Hence Total Cost = Cost per quart × Total Number of quarts = (Cost per quart for Apple Juice × Total Number of Apple Juice Quarts) + (Cost per quart for Cranberry Juice × Total Number of Cranberry Juice Quarts)

⇒ Total Cost = 4.5 × (q+4) = 6.3 × q + 3.6 × 4

⇒ 4.5(q+4) = 6.3q + 14.4, which matches with option D

Hence, the correct option is D
