Answer:
B. 1/56
Explanation:
There are 8 different marbles. In the first draw, you have a one out of 8 chance of getting the red. In the second draw, there are 7 marbles remaining, so a one out of 7 chance of drawing a white marble. To find the total probability of drawing the red and then white marble, we multiply the probabilities if each draw.
(1/8)*(1/7)=1/56
Answer:
n(M) = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
M = (2,4,6,8)
n(M) = Number of values in set M.
n(M) = 4
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
68% of an investment earning a return between 6 percent and 24 percent.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:
68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.
95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviation of the mean.
99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.
In this problem, we have that:
Mean = 15
Standard deviation = 9
How likely is it to earn a return between 6 percent and 24 percent?
6 = 15 - 1*9
6 is one standard deviation below the mean
24 = 15 + 1*9
24 is one standard deviation above the mean
By the empirical rule, there is a 68% of an investment earning a return between 6 percent and 24 percent.
A fisherman travels downstream at full speed to his favorite fishing spot.
<span>The stream is running at a rate of 5 miles per hour, and he takes an hour to get to the fishing hole. </span>
<span>He catches 5 fish and calls it a day. </span>
<span>He takes twice as long at full speed to get back to the dock going against the current. </span>
<span>(x + 5)/(x - 5) = 2 </span>
<span>x = 15
</span><span>The full speed of the fishing boat is 15 miles per hour.</span>
