<span>Exactly 33/532, or about 6.2% This is a conditional probability, So what we're looking for is the probability of 2 gumballs being selected both being red. So let's pick the first gumball. There is a total of 50+150+100+100 = 400 gumballs in the machine. Of them, 100 of the gumballs are red. So there's a 100/400 = 1/4 probability of the 1st gumball selected being red. Now there's only 399 gumballs in the machine and the probability of selecting another red one is 99/399 = 33/133. So the combined probability of both of the 1st 2 gumballs being red is 1/4 * 33/133 = 33/532, or about 0.062030075 = 6.2%</span>

Answer:

Actual volume=3,773,000 in³

Step-by-step explanation:

Scale 1:35

Actual Width=Model Width×Scale factor=(2×35)=70 inches

Actual Length=Model Length×Scale factor=(11×35)=385 inches

Actual Height=Model Height×Scale factor=(4×35)=140 inches

Actual volume =(Base Area×Height)=Length×width×height=(385×70×140)=3,773,000 in³

Actual volume=3,773,000 in³

Identify the vertex of the parabola with the quadratic equation u =6x squared - 72x + 220
BartSMP [9]
Don't report what you don't understand

the x value of the vertex of the parabola in form
y=ax^2+bx+c
is -b/2a
given
y=6x^2-72x+220
x value of vertex is -(-72)/(2*6)=72/12=6
xvalue is 6
sub that for x in the equation

y=6(6)^2-72(6)+220
y=216-432+220
y=4

(x,y)
vertex is (6,4)
