Deshawn has two bags of marbles. The first bag has 2 blue, 3 orange, and 5 red. The second bag has 4 pink, 10 blue, and 6 brown.
madreJ [45]

Answer: 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bag-I has 2 blue,3 orange, 5 red

Bag-II has 4 Pink,10 blue, 6 brown

No of ways of choosing a blue marble from bag-I

\Rightarrow ^2C_1

Total no of ways of choosing a marble from bag-I

\Rightarrow ^{10}C_1

No of ways of choosing a blue marble from bag-II

\Rightarrow ^{10}C_1

Total no of ways of choosing a marble from bag-II

\Rightarrow ^{20}C_1

The probability that he will pull out a blue marble from each bag is

\Rightarrow P=\text{Probability of pulling a blue marble from bag-I}\times \text{Probability of pulling a blue out bag-II}

\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{^2C_1}{^{10}C_1}\times \dfrac{^{10}C_1}{^{20}C_1}\\\\\Rightarrow P=\dfrac{2}{10}\times \dfrac{10}{20}=\dfrac{1}{10}

Hiram drove 15 miles in 12 minutes. If he
Pavlova-9 [17]
Since distance equals speed times time (d = st), we have

t = d/s

where d = 120 miles and s = 15 miles per hour

t = d / s
t = 120 / 15
t = 8

It will take 8 hours to drive 120 miles at a speed of 15 miles per hour.
