Roulette is a very popular game in many American casinos. In roulette, a ball spins on a circular wheel that is divided into 38

arcs of equal length, bearing the numbers 00, 0, 1, 2, ..., 35, 36. The number of the arc on which the ball stops is the outcome of one play of the game. The numbers are also colored in the following manner:
Red: 1,3,5,7,9,12,14,16,18,19,21.23,25,27,30,32.34,36
Black: 2.4,6,8,10,11,13,15,17,20,22,24.26,28,29,31,33,35 Greerz: 00,O
Players may place bets on the table in a variety of ways, including bets on odd, even, red, black, high, low, etc. Define the following events:
A: (Outcome is an odd number (00 and 0 are considered neither odd nor even)]
B: (Outcome is a black number]
C: {Outcome is a low number (1-18))
Calculate the probabilities of the following events:
a. AUB
b. A ∩ C
c. BU C
d. Bc
e. A ∩ B ∩ C

Answer:

a. P(AUB) = 0.74

b. P(A∩C) = 0.24

c. P(BUC) = 0.71

d. P(Bc) = 0.55

e. P(A∩B∩C) = 0.11

Step-by-step explanation:

n(U) = Total number of elements in the set = number of elements in the universal set = 38

A: (Outcome is an odd number (00 and 0 are considered neither odd nor even)]

An odd number referred to any integer, that is not a fraction, which is not possible to be divided exactly by 2. Therefore, we have:

A: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 29, 31, 33, 35

B: 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

C: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18

a. Calculate the probability of AUB

AUB picks not more than one each of the elements in both A and B without repetition. Therefore, we have:

AUB = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

n(AUB) = number of elements in AUB = 28

P(AUB) = probability of AUB = n(AUB) / n(U) = 28 / 38 = 0.736842105263158 = 0.74

b. Calculate the probability of A ∩ C  

A∩C picks only the elements that are common to both A and C. Therefore, we have:

A∩C: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17

n(A∩C) = number of elements in A∩C = 9

P(A∩C) = probability of A∩C = n(A∩C) / n(U) = 9 / 38 = 0.236842105263158 = 0.24

c. Calculate the probability of BUC

BUC picks not more than one each of the elements in both B and C without repetition. Therefore, we have:

BUC: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 22, 24, 26, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35

n(BUC) = number of elements in BUC = 27

P(BUC) = probability of A∩C = n(BUC) / n(U) = 27 / 38 = 0.710526315789474 = 0.71

d. Calculate the probability of Bc

Bc indicates B component it represents all the elements in the universal set excluding the elements in B. Therefore, we have:

Bc: 00, 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 14, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 25, 27, 30, 32, 34, 36

n(Bc) = number of elements in Bc = 20

P(Bc) = probability of Bc = n(Bc) / n(U) = 20 / 38 = 0.526315789473684 = 0.55

e. Calculate the probability of A∩B∩C

A∩B∩C picks only the elements that are common to A, B and C. Therefore, we have:

A∩B∩C: 11, 13, 15, 17

n(Bc) = number of elements in A∩B∩C = 4

P(A∩B∩C) = probability of A∩B∩C = n(A∩B∩C) / n(U) = 4 / 38 = 0.105263157894737 = 0.11

X^2/3=12
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

this is easy. all you have to do is multiply the denominator (3) by the outside number (12) to get 36. this leaves the equation being x^2 = 36. now you just find the square route of 36 (which is 6).

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2/3 = 12

12 x 3 = 36

x^2 = 36

/36 = 6

x = 6

How to work this problem must show work. n-2
Leona [35]
I am only guessing that you mean:

(n-2)/-3<7  if so, multiply both sides by -3 (and reverse the direction of the inequality sign because of negative mulitplication!)

n-2>-21  add 2 to both sides

n>-19

A given gas powered water pump delivers 42.50 gallons of water per minute. This value can also be expressed as _____________ L/s
OlgaM077 [116]

The rate at which the gas powered pump deliver water is 160.9 litres per seconds

<h3>How to convert rate?</h3>

The gas powered water pump delivers 42.50 gallons of water per minute.

Therefore,

1 gallon = 3.78541 litres

42.50 gallons = ?

cross multiply

volume = 42.50 × 3.78541 = 160.879925 litres

Hence,

60 seconds = 1 minutes

1 second = ?

time = 1 / 60 = 0.01666666666 seconds

Hence,

rate = 160.9 litres per second
