Suppose you randomly select a letter from BURGER AND STARBIRD. Imagine writing these letters on Ping-Pong balls – one letter per

ball – then putting them all in a barrel and removing one. What is the probability of pulling out an R? What is the probability of pulling out a B? What is the probability of pulling out a letter that appears in the first half of the alphabet? What is the probability of pulling a vowel?

First, count the total number of letters in <span>BURGER AND STARBIRD.
There are 17 letters.
Now count each type of letter you are interested in and divide by 17.

a) There are four R's, so the probability of pulling out an R is 4/17.

b) </span><span>There are two B's, so the probability of pulling out an B is 2/17.

c) Letters A through M appear in the first half of the alphabet.
These letters are from the first half of the alphabet:
</span><span>BGEADABID
There are 9 of them.
</span>The probability of pulling out a letter that appears in the first half of the alphabet is 9/17.

d) <span>These letters are vowels
</span><span>UEAAI
There are five vowels.
</span><span>The probability of pulling out a vowel is 5/17.</span>

Giselle works as a carpenter and as a blacksmith. She earns $20\$20 $20 dollar sign, 20 per hour as a carpenter and $25\$25 $25
malfutka [58]
C = # of carpenter hrs , b = # of blacksmith hrs

c + b = 30...c = 30 - b
20c + 25b = 690

20(30 - b) + 25b = 690
600 - 20b + 25b = 690
-20b + 25b = 690 - 600
5b = 90
b = 90/5
b = 18 <== hrs worked as blacksmith

c + b = 30
c + 18 = 30
c = 30 - 18
c = 12 <== hrs worked as carpenter

Rita finds the quotient of 584 divide by 17
Serga [27]

Answer:

Rita's answer in incorrect because the remainder that Rita got which is 23 is greater 17 which is the divisor. 17 can still go in 23 1time to have a remainder of 6. Hence Rita's answer is wrong with 34R6 being the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient is the required answer if 584 is divided by 17

584 will be the dividend and 17 is the divisor.

To calculate 584/17, 17 will go in 58 3times with 7 as remainder. This remainder 7 will combine with 4 to make 74, 17 will also go in 74 4times with remainder of 6.

The final answer by combining the number of times 17 goes in 584 which is 34 with final remainder of 6. This means that;

584/17 = 34 remainder 6 i.e 34R6

This shows that Rita's answer in incorrect because the remainder that Rita got which is 23 is greater 17 which is the divisor. 17 can still go in 23 1time to have a remainder of 6. Hence Rita's answer is wrong with 34R6 being the correct answer.

Problem 5

d = 29 = diameter

r = d/2 = 29/2 = 14.5 = radius

SA = surface area of sphere

SA = 4*pi*r^2

SA = 4*pi*(14.5)^2

SA = 841pi

SA = 841*3.14

SA = 2,640.74 square inches

To convert from square inches to square feet, we divide by 144. This is because 12^2 = 144.

2,640.74 square inches = (2,640.74)/144 = 18.3 sq ft

<h3>Answer: 18.3 square feet (approximate)</h3>

=====================================

Problem 6

d = 10.7 = diameter

r = d/2 = 10.7/2 = 5.35 = radius

L = 22.3 = slant height

SA = surface area of the cone

SA = pi*r^2 + pi*r*L

SA = pi*(5.35)^2 + pi*5.35*22.3

SA = 147.9275pi

SA = 147.9275*3.14

SA = 464.49235

<h3>Answer:  464.49235 square cm (approximate)</h3>

A bag of marbles contains 6 bluemarbles, 2 yeloow marbles, 4 red marbles, and 1 green marble. What is the [robability of reachin
irina [24]

Answer:

The probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, we need to know the total number of marbles that are in the bag. To do this, we will have to add up all the marble colors together.

This will give us 6 + 2 +4+ 1 = 13 marbles in total.

The next step is to find the number of yellow marbles in the bag.

We can get this from the question. There are 2 yellow marbles in the bag.

The probability of selecting a yellow marble can be obtained by dividing the number of yellow marbles by the total number of marbles in the bag

This will give us 2/13.

Therefore, the probability of picking a yellow marble is 2/13
