There are 5 red marbles, 8 blue marbles, and 12 green marbles in a bag. What is the theoretical probability of randomly drawing

a red marble and then a green marble?

All we have to do is to multiply the probability of drawing a red marble to the probability of drawing a green marble after drawing the red one.


For the probability of drawing a red marble first, it should be a fraction with the number of red marbles as the numerator, and the total number of all marbles as the denominator.

Which means,

5/(5+8+12)

=5/25

=1/5


Now, we need to find the probability of drawing a green marble after drawing a red marble. In short, it means the number of green marbles as the numerator and the total number of all marbles one red marble (since it has been drawn already) as the denominator.

12/(4+8+12)

=12/24

=1/2


Therefore,

1/5 x 1/2

=1/10

=0.1

=10%

Total marbles = 5 + 8 + 12 = 25


P(red then green) = (5/25)(12/24) = 1/10


1/10 = 0.1 = 10%


Answer: 10%

Which of the choices below is not a possible correlation coefficient?
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The condition for r is the following:

-1 \leq r \leq 1

And for this case if we analyze the options the only impossible value is given by:

1.0528

Because this value is higher than 1 and not satisfy the general limits for r

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient is a measure of dispersion and is a value between -1 and 1, and is defined as:

r=\frac{n(\sum xy)-(\sum x)(\sum y)}{\sqrt{[n\sum x^2 -(\sum x)^2][n\sum y^2 -(\sum y)^2]}}

The condition for r is the following:

-1 \leq r \leq 1

And for this case if we analyze the options the only impossible value is given by:

1.0528

Because this value is higher than 1 and not satisfy the general limits for r

Are these correct? If not please help me write the correct answer.​
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Mostly correct

For Q3, you are doing great, you remembered that negative numbers can happen if the exponent is an odd number.

For Q4, I think you were confused with the fractions,

4(i)

(\frac{2}{3} )^{4} = (\frac{2^{4}}{3^{4}}) = (\frac{16}{81}) =0.198

4(ii) is also wrong but I'll let you try to fix it yourself following what I given you for 4(i). You should get 1/64

Hope this helps!

Given a point on a line and the equation of a parallel or perpendicular line, write the equation of the line in point-slope form
Arlecino [84]

Answer: y - 5 = 0(x - 1)

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

Explanation:

Recall that point slope form in general is written as such

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

where,

m is the slope

(x1,y1) is the point the line goes through

The given equation y = 7 can be written as y = 0x+7. So we see that this line has a slope of m = 0

Plug m = 0 along with the given point (x1,y1) = (1,5) into the point slope equation and we get

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 5 = 0(x - 1)

which is the final answer

note: the equation in bold can be rearranged and simplified to get y = 5; however your teacher seems to want the answer in point-slope form, so we leave it as such.
