To be precise, the size of your sample space is <span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span>. This number does go on the bottom of the fraction, and what goes on top is the size of the event. Break up the event into independent events 1. choose the 2 defective bulbs, and 2. choose the remaining 8 bulbs. I don't have much choice in event 1. There is only one way to choose both of the defective balls. In other words, <span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span></span> (choosing 2 defective bulbs from a set of 2 defective bulbs). For event 2, there are <span><span>24−2=22</span><span>24−2=22</span></span> nondefective bulbs, and I must choose <span>88</span> of them, so that's <span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span>. Finally, since events 1 and 2 are independent, we multiply the answers for the combined event: <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span></span>

<span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span></span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>

Or, since <span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span><span><span>(<span>22</span>)</span>=1</span></span>,

<span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span><span>P=<span><span>(<span>228</span>)</span><span>(<span>2410</span>)</span></span></span></span>

Hope this helps!

To find the probability that both balls are white you will find the probability of getting a while ball from each situation separately and then multiply these probabilities together.

1.  7/14 or 1/2 chance
2.  3/9 or 1/3 change

1/2 x 1/3 = 1/6

You will have a 1 in 6 chance of getting a white ball from both urns.

Explain why it is correct to claim that A/B &lt; B/A is true.
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Think of it as a small number and a large number. If the large number is being divided by a small number, of course that would be larger than the small number being divided by the large number.

Help me plz I’ve never been good with math

Its 16.

So you have 12 miles on that trail, and markers every 2/3 of the way there. If you were to divide 2 with 3 then you can get the decimal of the fraction. Which in this case it’s 0.75. So every single 0.75 of the mile there is a marker. Divide 12 with 0.75 and you get 16 markers.


Hoped this helped in some way.

Answer:
