You add the whole numbers together first and then you do the numerators then the denominators. Like for example, #2 would be 2 and then 4 on the top and 6 on the bottom since they share a common denominator! Hoped this helps.

Seven balls are randomly withdrawn from an urn that contains 12 red, 16 blue, and 18 green balls. Find the probability that (a)

UNO [17]

Answer:

a) P=0.226

b) P=0.6

c) P=0.0008

d) P=0.74

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the seven balls are randomly withdrawn from an urn that contains 12 red, 16 blue, and 18 green balls. Therefore, we have 46 balls.

a) We calculate the probability that are 3 red, 2 blue, and 2 green balls.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

$C_7^{46}=\frac{46!}{7!(46-7)!}=53524680$

We calculate the number of favorable combinations:

$C_3^{12}\cdot C_2^{16}\cdot C_2^{18}=660\cdot 120\cdot 153=12117600$

Therefore, the probability is

$P=\frac{12117600}{53524680}\\\\P=0.226$

b) We calculate the probability that are at least 2 red balls.

We calculate the probability withdrawn of 1 or none of the red balls.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

$C_7^{46}=\frac{46!}{7!(46-7)!}=53524680$

We calculate the number of favorable combinations: for 1 red balls

$C_1^{12}\cdot C_7^{34}=12\cdot 1344904=16138848$

Therefore, the probability is

$P_1=\frac{16138848}{53524680}\\\\P_1=0.3$

We calculate the number of favorable combinations: for none red balls

$C_7^{34}=5379616$

Therefore, the probability is

$P_0=\frac{5379616}{53524680}\\\\P_0=0.1$

Therefore, the the probability that are at least 2 red balls is

$P=1-P_1-P_0\\\\P=1-0.3-0.1\\\\P=0.6$

c) We calculate the probability that are all withdrawn balls are the same color.

We calculate the number of possible combinations:

$C_7^{46}=\frac{46!}{7!(46-7)!}=53524680$

We calculate the number of favorable combinations:

$C_7^{12}+C_7^{16}+C_7^{18}=792+11440+31824=44056$

Therefore, the probability is

$P=\frac{44056}{53524680}\\\\P=0.0008$

d) We calculate the probability that are either exactly 3 red balls or exactly 3 blue balls are withdrawn.

Let X, event that exactly 3 red balls selected.

$P(X)=\frac{C_3^{12}\cdot C_4^{34}}{53524680}=0.57\\$

Let Y, event that exactly 3 blue balls selected.

$P(Y)=\frac{C_3^{16}\cdot C_4^{30}}{53524680}=0.29\\$

We have

$P(X\cap Y)=\frac{18\cdot C_3^{12} C_3^{16}}{53524680}=0.12$

Therefore, we get

$P(X\cup Y)=P(X)+P(Y)-P(X\cap Y)\\\\P(X\cup Y)=0.57+0.29-0.12\\\\P(X\cup Y)=0.74$

Cameron classified -18/3 as real, rational, integer and a whole number and a whole number. Is he correct? why or why not?

DiKsa [7]

Yes he is correct because -18/3 would turn into -6 a whole number

Need help. Thank you :”)

Agata [3.3K]

It is the first choice. All you have to do is isolate A from 2A so you would divide by 2 and get A=bh/2

A 12-meter ladder leans against a building forming a 30° angle with the building.

KatRina [158]

Answer:

will show you two (2) ways to solve this problem.

A diagram is needed to see what is going on....

Without loss of generality (WLOG)

The wall is on the right. The ladder leans against the wall

with a POSITIVE slope, from SW to NE (quadrant 3 to quadrant 1).

The measure from the bottom of the ladder to the wall is 6.

Option 1:

The ladder, ground and wall form a right triangle.

The hypotenuse (ladder) is 14 feet.

The bottom of the ladder is 6 feet from the wall,

so the base of this right triangle is 6 feet.

The top of the ladder to the ground represents

the missing leg of the right triangle.

The pythagorean theorem applies, which says

6^2 + h^2 = 14^2 where h is the height

of the top of the ladder to the ground

36 + h^2 = 196

h^2 = 196 - 36

h^2 = 160

h = sqrt(160)

= sqrt(16 * 10)

= sqrt(16)* sqrt(10)

= 4*sqrt(10) <--- exact answer

= 4 * 3.16227766016838....

= 12.64911....

12.65 <--- rounded to 2 digits as directed

----------------------------------------------

Option #2: using trig

With respect to the angle formed by the bottom of the

ladder with the ground

cos T = 6/14 = 3/7

T = inverse-cosine(3/7) = 64.623006647 degrees

sin(64.623006647) = h/14

h = 14*sin(64.62300647) = 12.6491106 <--- same answer

hope this helps
