Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
----
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
----
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
Answer: The probablty is is 41221/26 or 0.00669%
Step-by-step explanation:
Drawing tiles from the bag at one time is mathematically equivalent to drawing one tile 4 times inculding the vowel, without replacement.
If we get one of these 4 letters on draw 1, then on draw 2, we'll have 3 possible successful draws out of the 25 tiles left.
This pattern continues down to draw 4. Since each draw is independent, we just multiply the probabilities together:
X+y=2(x-y)
x+y=2x-2y
3y=x
x-2y=2
then,substitute
(3y)-2y=2
y=2
so,x=3(2)
x=6
x the largest
y the smallest
