Answer:

the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A bag contains two six-sided dice: one red, one green.

The red die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.

The green die has faces numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, and 4.

From above, the probability of obtaining 4 in a single throw of a fair die is:

P (4  | red dice) = \dfrac{1}{6}

P (4 | green dice) = \dfrac{3}{6} =\dfrac{1}{2}

A die is selected at random and rolled four times.

As the die is selected randomly; the probability of the first die must be equal to the probability of the second die = \dfrac{1}{2}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the first dice can be calculated as:

= \begin {pmatrix}  \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right  \end {pmatrix} \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^4

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(4-2)!} ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= 6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^4

= (\dfrac{1}{6})^3

= \dfrac{1}{216}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in the second  dice can be calculated as:

= \begin {pmatrix}  \left \begin{array}{c}4\\2\\ \end{array} \right  \end {pmatrix} \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{1}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^2  \times  \begin {pmatrix} \dfrac{3}{6}  \end {pmatrix}  ^2

= \dfrac{4!}{2!(2)!} \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= 6 \times ( \dfrac{1}{6})^2 \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= ( \dfrac{1}{6}) \times  ( \dfrac{3}{6})^2

= \dfrac{9}{216}

∴

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both dies = P( two 1s and two 4s | first dice ) P( first dice ) + P( two 1s and two 4s | second dice ) P( second dice )

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{1}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2} + \dfrac{9}{216} \times \dfrac{1}{2}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{1}{432}  + \dfrac{1}{48}

The probability of two 1's and two 4's in both die = \dfrac{5}{216}

By applying  Bayes Theorem; the probability that the die was green can be calculated as:

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = The probability of two 1's and two 4's | second dice)P (second die) ÷ P(two 1's and two 4's in both die)

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = \dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{9}{216}}{\dfrac{5}{216}}

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = \dfrac{0.5 \times 0.04166666667}{0.02314814815}

P(second die (green) | two 1's and two 4's )  = 0.9

Thus; the probability the die chosen was green is 0.9

yaroslaw [1]
For this case we have an equation of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ t
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 t: time
 The given equation is:
 a = 1300 (1.02) ^ 7
 Where,
 b = 1.02
 It represents a growth of 2% on the initial amount.
 Answer:
 
1.02 represented in this equation a growth of 2% on the initial amount.

Solve for B - PLEASE HELP IMMA DIE
Marta_Voda [28]
First, you would have to add d to both sides to get rid of it
x+d=ab+c/b
Then you would multiply b by both sides to get rid of the b in the denominator
x+d(b)=ab+c
After that, you would subtract c from both sides
x+d(b)-c=ab
Then you would divide both sides by a
x+d(b)-c=b
------------

Please help me I don’t understand.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

1 : 64

Step-by-step explanation:

Model:

1/2 in * 1/6 in = 1/12 in^2

Real:

1/3 ft * 1/9 ft = 1/3 * 12 in * 1/9 * 12 in = 16/3 in^2

model : real

1/12 / 16/3 = 1/12 * 3/16 = 3/192 = 1/64

model : real = 1 : 64

Shawna invests $5,048 in a savings account with a fixed annual interest rate of 4% compounded 12 times per year. How long will i
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

5 years

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question we are given;

  • Amount invested or principal amount as $5048
  • Rate of interest as 4% compounded 12 times per year
  • Amount accrued as $6,163.59

We are required to determine the time taken for the money invested to accrue to the given amount;

Using compound interest formula;

A=P(1+\frac{r}{100})^n

where n is the interest period and r is the rate of interest, in this case, 4/12%(0.33%)

Therefore;

6,163.59=5,048(1+\frac{0.333}{100})^n

1.221=(1+\frac{0.333}{100})^n

1.221=(1.0033)^n

introducing logarithms on both sides;

log1.221=log(1.0033)^n\\n=\frac{log1.221}{log1.0033} \\n=60.61

But, 1 year = 12 interest periods

Therefore;

Number of years = 60.61 ÷ 12

                            = 5.0508

                            = 5 years

Therefore, it will take 5 years for the invested amount to accrue to $6163.59
