Okay so probability is just percentage of a whole, right?

So you have 14 White Eggs + 15 Brown Eggs + 11 Lemons.

Add all those numbers together and you get your whole.

14 + 15 = 29    29+11 = 40

40 is your whole. 

So because you want to know how likely it is to pick up an egg, you would follow these steps.

100/40 = 2.5 (For each part of the 40, it is worth 2.5 percent.)

2.5 x 29 = 72.5

Your probability of picking an egg out of the bask is 72.5 percent or 72.5 out of 100.

Answer:

The exact probability that Taylor picks an egg from the basket is 29/40

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a basket containing 14 white eggs, 15 brown eggs, and 11 lemons.

The total objects we have are: 14 + 15 + 11 = 40. It means Total posibilities are T = 40.

Taylor is in a hurry to make breakfast and she picks something from the basket randomly. We need to calculate the probability she picks an egg.

The basket contains two types of eggs: brown and white. So, eggs are the sum of both 14 + 15 = 29. It means favorable possibilities F = 29.

Now we can calculate the probability as the relationship between favorable possibilities and total possibilities.

P = F/T = 29/40.

Finally, we can conclude that the exact probability that Taylor picks an egg from the basket is 29/40.

A box with a square base and no top is to be made from a square piece of carboard by cutting 7 in. squares from each corner and
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

The size of the cardboard should be  26  in\ by\ 26in

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagram for this question is shown on the first uploaded image

     The volume of the box is  V = 2527  \ in ^3

The length and the Width of the card is  

      L = W = Z

From the question we are told that 7 in squares were cut from each corner

So the length and the width of the box  would be  

              L = W = (Z - 7)

And the height would be  H  =  7 in

Mathematically the volume of the box can be represented as

              V  = Length\ of\ bx  * Width\ of\ box * Height\ of\ box

So the Volume would be

         V =  (Z-7)(Z-7) * 7

Substituting values

         (Z-7) ^2 = \frac{2527}{7}

          (Z-7) ^2 = 361  

          (Z-7) ^2 = 19^2

=>   Z - 7 = 19

        Z = 19 + 7

         Z =26 \ in

Calculate the average rate of change of f(x) = x2 - 1 x - 4 for 2 ≤ x ≤ 6.
Monica [59]
The average rate of change is (total change in f(x))/(total change in x) so

r=(f(6)-f(2))/(6-2)

r=(36-6-4-4+2+4)/4

r=7

Find the average rate of change of the function defined by the following table. x y -2 -5 2 35 6 75 10 115
Pani-rosa [81]

By definition we have that the average rate of change of the function is:

 AVR =  \frac{f(x2) - f(x1)}{x2 - x1}

 Evaluating the function for the complete interval we have that the AVR is given by:

 AVR = \frac{115 - (-5)}{10 - (-2)}

 Rewriting we have:

 AVR = \frac{115+5}{10+2}

 Simplifying the expression we have:

 AVR = \frac{120}{12}

 AVR = 10

 Answer:

 the average rate of change of the function defined by the table is:

 AVR = 10
