1/2 = 40kg
1/5 = 22kg
1/2 = 5/10
1/5 = 2/10
3/10 is the difference between 18kg.
This means 1/10 of the box filled with apples is 6kg.
<span>40 - (5 x 6) = 10kg. The box weighs 10kg alone. </span>

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

7m² - 5m + 8 + 3/(m+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

7m³+16m²-7m+27

(7m³+21m²-5m²-15m+8m+24+3)/(m+3)

[7m²(m+3) - 5m(m+3) + 8(m+3) + 3]/(m+3)

7m² - 5m + 8 + 3/(m+3)

An unfair coin with​ Pr[H] = 0.2 is flipped. If the flip results in a​ head, a marble is selected at random from a urn containin
satela [25.4K]
Normally when dealing with coins the probability of getting heads or tails is 0.5 each. However in this case since its an unfair coin, the probability of getting heads is 0.2. 
H - head 
T - tails
R - red marble
pr (H) = 0.2
urn
6 red and 4 blue
pr (T)   = 0.8
urn
3 red and 5 blue

when heads is obtained 
red - 6/10 -0.6
blue - 4/10 - 0.4
therefore when multiplying with 0.2 probability of getting heads
pr (R ∩ H) red - 0.6*0.2 = 0.12

when tails is obtained 
red - 3/8 - 0.375
blue - 5/8 - 0.625
when multiplying with 0.8 probability of getting tails
pr (R ∩ T) red - 0.375 * 0.8 = 0.3

using bayes rule the answer can be found out, 
the following equation is used;
pr (H | R) = pr (R ∩ H) / {pr (R ∩ H) + pr (R ∩ T)}
               = 0.12 / (0.12 + 0.3)
               = 0.12 / 0.42
               = 0.286
the final answer is 0.286

Noah wants to put $1,000 in a savings account with a 1.5% annual interest rate. How much more money will he have after one year
larisa86 [58]
Assuming that 1.5% annual interest is converted to monthly basis with the same amount, then the monthly interest should be: 1.5%/12= 0.125%.

If you put $1000 for annual interest, the saving account would become: $1000*(100%+1.5%)= $1015

If you put $1000 for monthly interest, the saving account would become: ($1000*(100%+0.125%)= $1000*1.0151035559= $1015.10

Then, the money difference should be:  $1015.10-$1015= $0.10

If x is for sneakers, and y is for high heels, plug 15 in for a and 30 in for b. This means that x is how many sneakers she buys, and y is how many high heels she buys. The equation altogether represents the total amount of her purchases.
