Answer:

The probability of four girls is:

\dfrac{1}{16}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space for 4 children consist of 16 entries and is given by:

{bbbb,bbbg,bbgb,bgbb,gbbb,bbgg,bgbg,ggbb,gbbg,gggg,gggb,ggbg,gbgg,bggg,gbgb,bggb}

i.e. The total number of outcomes=16.

Now the number of outcomes of getting four girls or we can say no boys=1=Number of favourable outcomes {i.e. the outcome is gggg}

Hence,

The probability of getting four girls= (Number of favourable outcomes)/(Total number of outcomes)=1/16

Hence, the probability of four girls is: \dfrac{1}{16}

The answer is 1/2^4 which 1/16 or 0.0625. there are 16 ways of getting either a girl or a boy in a limited order.

Raul has 56 bouncy balls. He puts three times as many balls into red bags as he puts into green gift bags. If he puts the same n
Sati [7]
If we divide 56 by 4 we get 14.  Why by4?  So that one number is 3 times the other So he had 14 balls that went into the green bags and 42 (56-14) that went into the red bags.  We could just answer the question and say 14 but I think they want to know how many in each green bag.
14 and 42 don't work because they are not the same number of balls.  What number is a common factor?  7 is,
We could have 2 green bags and split the 14 balls into 2 groups of 7 and with the remaining 42 - put them into 6 red bags of 7 each.
And so the answer to your question is:
7 ball in each bag  = 2 bags are green, and 6 bags are red
                                        14 balls              +    42 balls            = 56 bouncy balls

Find the altitude of a cylinder with with a radius of 9 and a surface area of approximately 791.68 units2.
Vika [28.1K]

In this question , it is given that we have a cylinder with with a radius of 9 and a surface area of approximately 791.68 units square.

The formula of surface area of cylinder is

A= 2 \pi r^2 + 2 \pi r h

Substituting the values of A and r, we will get

791.68 = 2* \pi * 9^2  + 2 * \pi * 9*h&#10;\\&#10;791.68 = 162 \pi + 18 \pi h&#10;\\&#10;791.68 -162 \pi = 18 \pi h&#10;\\&#10;h = \frac{791.68 -162 \pi}{18 \pi}&#10;\\&#10;h =5 units

So the height of the cylinder is 5 units .

The sum of the expression (–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1) will be –2x – 1. Then the correct option is D.

<h3>What is Algebra?</h3>

The analysis of mathematical representations is algebra, and the handling of those symbols is logic.

The expression can be written as

(–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1)

Then the sum of the expression (–x² + x) and (x² – 3x – 1) will be

(–x² + x) + (x² – 3x – 1) = –2x – 1

Then the correct option is D.
