Set up your conversion using dimensional analysis. That's just a fancy way of saying set up your values so you cancel what you don't need and keep what you do. If we want to convert miles per hour to feet per second, we need to convert the miles to feet using the fact that there are 5280 feet in 1 mile, and then convert the hours to seconds using the fact that there are 3600 seconds in an hour. Your set up will look like this (it's all about setting up the fractions correctly): . If you look at that closely, you can see the there is a label of miles on the top in the first fraction and on the bottom in the second fraction. Those cancel each other out by reducing. Then in the bottom of the first fraction there is hours and in the top of the last fraction there is hours. Those cancel out. From top to bottom or bottom to top you can cancel like labels. This leaves us with feet in the top and seconds in the bottom. Now it's a matter of doing the math. You multiply straight across the top and straight across the bottom.
. Simplifying you get 46.933 feet per second.
Answer:
11.42 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
For the first box bought, there is a 100% chance of getting a unique toy (since you still don't have any). E₁ = 1.
After that, there is a 4 in 5 chance of getting a unique toy from the next box, the expected number of boxes required is:
For the next unique toy, there is now a 3 in 5 chance of getting it:
Following that logic, there is a 2 in 5 chance of getting the 4th unique toy:
Finally, there is a 1 in 5 chance to get the last unique toy:
The expected number of boxes to obtain a full set is:
