15,000,000,000 = 15 × 10⁹

15 × 10⁹ - 5.8 × 10⁹ = 9.2 × 10⁹ m

Answer: C. 9.2 × 10⁹ m

A box of candy hearts contains 52 hearts, of which 19 are white, 10 are tan, 7 are pink, 3 are purple, 5 are yellow, 2 are orang

laiz [17]

<u>Answer-</u>

a. Probability that three of the candies are white = 0.29

b. Probability that three are white, 2 are tan, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, and 2 are green = 0.006

<u>Solution-</u>

There are 19 white candies, out off which we have to choose 3.

The number of ways we can do the same process =

$\binom{19}{3} = \frac{19!}{3!16!} = 969$

As we have to draw total of 9 candies, after 3 white candies we left with 9-3 = 6, candies. And those 6 candies have to be selected from 52-19 = 33 candies, (as we are drawing candies other than white, so it is subtracted)

And this process can be done in,

$\binom{33}{6} = \frac{33!}{6!27!} =1107568$

So total number of selection = (969)×(1107568) = 1073233392

Drawing 9 candies out of 52 candies,

$\binom{52}{9} = \frac{52!}{9!43!} = 3679075400$

∴P(3 white candies) = $\frac{1073233392}{3679075400} =0.29$

Total number of ways of selecting 3 whites, 2 are tans, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, and 2 are greens is,

$\binom{19}{3} \binom{10}{2} \binom{7}{1} \binom{5}{1} \binom{6}{2}$

$=(\frac{19!}{3!16!}) (\frac{10!}{2!8!}) (\frac{7!}{1!6}) (\frac{5!}{1!4!}) (\frac{6!}{2!4!})$

$=(969)(45)(7)(5)(15)=22892625$

Total number of selection = 3 whites + 2 are tans + 1 is pink + 1 is yellow + 2 greens = 9 candies out of 52 candies is,

$\binom{52}{9}=\frac{52!}{9!43!} =3679075400$

∴ P( 3 whites, 2 are tans, 1 is pink, 1 is yellow, 2 greens) =

$\frac{22892625}{3679075400} = 0.006$

Suppose the number of insect fragments in a chocolate bar follows a Poisson process with the expected number of fragments in a 2

leonid [27]

Answer:

a)The expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b)0.6004

c)19.607

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X denotes the number of fragments in 200 gm chocolate bar with expected number of fragments 10.2

X ~ Poisson(A) where $\lambda = \frac{10.2}{200} = 0.051$

a)We are supposed to find the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar

$\frac{1}{4} \times 200 = 50$

50 grams of bar contains expected fragments = \lambda x = 0.051 \times 50=2.55

So, the expected number of insect fragments in 1/4 of a 200-gram chocolate bar is 2.55

b) Now we are supposed to find the probability that you have to eat more than 10 grams of chocolate bar before ending your first fragment

Let X denotes the number of grams to be eaten before another fragment is detected.

$P(X>10)= e^{-\lambda \times x}= e^{-0.051 \times 10}= e^{-0.51}=0.6004$

c)The expected number of grams to be eaten before encountering the first fragments :

$E(X)=\frac{1}{\lambda}=\frac{1}{0.051}=19.607 gram$ s
