<span>2/15 if drawn without replacement. 1/9 if drawn with replacement. Assuming that the chips are drawn without replacement, there are 6 * 5 different possibilities. And that's a low enough number to exhaustively enumerate them. So they are: 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 Of the above 30 possible draws, there are 4 that add up to 5. So the probability is 4/30 = 2/15 If the draw is done with replacement, then there are 36 possible draws. Once again, small enough to exhaustively list, they are: 1,1 : 1,2 : 1,3 : 1,4 : 1,5 : 1,6 2,1 : 2,2 : 2,3 : 2,4 : 2,5 : 2,6 3,1 : 3,2 : 3,3 : 3.4 : 3,5 : 3,6 4,1 : 4,2 : 4.3 : 4,4 : 4,5 : 4,6 5,1 : 5,2 : 5.3 : 5,4 : 5,5 : 5,6 6,1 : 6,2 : 6.3 : 6,4 : 6,5 : 6,6 And of the above 36 possibilities, exactly 4 add up to 5. So you have 4/36 = 1/9</span>

(No links please) There were 2 red marbles, 3 blue marbles and 5 gold marbles in a bag.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

5/9

Step-by-step explanation:

You started with 10 marbles total. You removed one marble and did not replace it, so you now have 9 marbles. The marble that you removed was NOT a gold marble, so you still have 5 gold marbles.

This means that out of the 9 marbles that you have left, 5 of them are gold.

This means you have a 5/9 chance of drawing a gold marble next.

The coordinates of Ship A and B are missing, so i have attached it

Answer:

The vessel in distress is located at the coordinate (1, 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates attached shows that;

Coordinates of A are (3, 4) while that of B are (1, 1).

We are told that Ship A receives a distress signal from the north, And ship B receives a distress signal from the same vessel from the southeast.

Now, from the image attached, If we imagine extending the line of ship A that is getting distress signal from southeast and also same thing for ship B that is getting signal from north,we'll discover that the lines intersect at a point with co-ordinates of approximately; (1, 2)
