A box contains four 10 nf and eight 100 nf capacitors. (a) what is the probability of obtaining at least two 10 nf capacitors if

we randomly draw four capacitors from the box with replacement? (b) what is the probability of drawing at least two 10 nf capacitors if we randomly draw four capacitors from the box without replacement?

there are 4 of the 10-nf and 8 of the 100-nf capacitors which is a total of 12 items.

the probability of drawing a 10-nf is: 4 out of 12 = \frac{1}{3}

the probability of drawing a 100-nf is: 8 out of 12 =  \frac{2}{3}

(a)  "at least two" means: 2 or 3 or 4

Probability of 2 (10's) and 2 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{2}{3} x \frac{2}{3} = \frac{4}{81}

Probability of 3 (10's) and 1 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{2}{3} = \frac{2}{81}

Probability of 4 (10's) and 0 (100's):  \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} x \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{81}

2 or 3 or 4: \frac{4}{81} + \frac{2}{81} + \frac{1}{81} = \frac{7}{81}

(b) without replacement

Probability of 2 (10's) and 2 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{8}{10} x \frac{7}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 8 x 7}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

Probability of 3 (10's) and 1 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{2}{10} x \frac{8}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 8}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

Probability of 4 (10's) and 0 (100's):  \frac{4}{12} x \frac{3}{11} x \frac{2}{10} x \frac{1}{9} = \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 1}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}

2 or 3 or 4: \frac{4 x 3 x 8 x 7}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} + \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 8}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} + \frac{4 x 3 x 2 x 1}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} = \frac{672 + 192 + 24}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9} =  \frac{888}{12 x 11 x 10 x 9}  =  \frac{111}{1485}

How many times does a rabbits heart beat in one hour
mash [69]
<span>A rabbit’s heart rate should be 120-150 beats per minute so you just multiply 120 by 60 and 150 by 60 and the numbers in between that should be the amount of times a rabbit hearts beats in one hour. 60 x 120 = 7,200 and 60 x 150 = 9,000. A rabbit's heart beats between 7,200 and 9,000 times an hour. </span>

Answer:

the distance between the 2 points is 6.4 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

point 1 has the coordinates (-4, -2).

point 2 has the coordinates (1, 2).

the distance between both points is the Hypotenuse of the right- angled triangle of the coordinate difference lines in parallel to x- and y-axis.

so, how long is the difference in x dimension ?

and his long is the difference in y dimension ?

these are the sides of the triangle.

the difference in x dimension :

1 - -4 = 1 + 4 = 5

the difference in y dimension :

2 - -2 = 2 + 2 = 4

P1P2² = 4² + 5² = 16 + 25 = 41

P1P2 = sqrt(41) = 6.4
