Rates Question
12 A highway had a landslide, where 3,000 cubic yards of material fell on the road, requiring 200 dump truck loads to clear. On another highway, a slide left 40,000 cubic yards on the road. How many dump truck loads would be needed to clear this slide?
3,000 yd3 = 200 dtl
40,000 yd3 × 200 dtl = 2,667 dtl
3, 000 yd3
I think the answer is 6t=9
Answer:
The correct answers are a. Independent; b. Independent; c. Independent; e. Not Independent
Step-by-step explanation:
a. A jar contains fifteen coins which. Two coins are picked randomly without replacement. Thus the second pick is not dependent on the first pick as the coins in the all same and thus the experiment is independent.
b. A number cube is rolled twice. Outcome of the first roll is independent of the outcome in the second and thus the experiment is independent.
c. A box contains number cards labeled from 1 to 10 where 2 cards are chosen randomly with replacement. Hence first draw does not effect the sample making the experiment independent.
e. There are 3 green balls and 7 red balls in a bag with 2 balls are chosen randomly without replacement. Thus one pick depends on what is drawn in the previous pick thus making it a dependent or not independent event.
It’s True.. you take the “extreme” variable from each proportion and cross multiply them before setting them equal to the product of the two “means” (which are just the other 2 numbers in the proportions).
Answer:
The probability of getting two of the same color is 61/121 or about 50.41%.
Step-by-step explanation:
The bag is filled with five blue marbles and six red marbles.
And we want to find the probability of getting two of the same color.
If we're getting two of the same color, this means that we are either getting Red - Red or Blue - Blue.
In other words, we can find the independent probability of each case and add the probabilities together*.
The probability of getting a red marble first is:
Since the marble is replaced, the probability of getting another red is: 
The probability of getting a blue marble first is:
And the probability of getting another blue is:
So, the probability of getting two of the same color is:
*Note:
We can only add the probabilities together because the event is mutually exclusive. That is, a red marble is a red marble and a blue marble is a blue marble: a marble cannot be both red and blue simultaneously.
