When you have 3 choices for each of 6 spins, the number of possible "words" is
  3^6 = 729

The number of permutations of 6 things that are 3 groups of 2 is
  6!/(2!×2!×2!) = 720/8 = 90

A) The probability of a word containing two of each of the letters is 90/729 = 10/81


The number of permutations of 6 things from two groups of different sizes is
  (2 and 4) : 6!/(2!×4!) = 15
  (3 and 3) : 6!/(3!×3!) = 20
  (4 and 2) : 15
  (5 and 1) : 6
  (6 and 0) : 1

B) The number of ways there can be at least 2 "a"s and no "b"s is
  15 + 20 + 15 + 6 + 1 = 57
The probability of a word containing at least 2 "a"s and no "b"s is 57/729 = 19/243.

These numbers were verified by listing all possibilities and actually counting the ones that met your requirements.

A batch of snack mix made of dried fruit and nuts contain 744G of nuts the ratio of nuts to dried fruit by weight is 12 to 13 ho
Bezzdna [24]

In a bag of snack mix:

n = nuts       d = dried fruit

n = 744g        d = ???g

Ratio Nuts/Dried fruit = 12/13

This basically means that if the mix was divided in 25 parts, 12 parts would be nuts and 13 would be dried fruits

If 744 is 12 parts then 744/12 is 1 part

744/12 = 62

1 part = 62g

there are 13 parts of dried fruit

13 x 62 = 806

744g of nuts + 806g of dreid fruit = 1550g

Answer: A batch of snack mix weigh 1550g, or 1.55kg

hope it helps :)

Find the equation of the line that is parallel to the line x+3y=-15 that passes through the origin
Monica [59]
You would subtract x from each side. It would then be 3y=-x-15. Then you would divide all of the equation by 3. Your final answer would be y=-3x-5.
