The actual answer is 154 but the closest estimate would be 150.
Just multiply the number of gallons filled her gas tank (14) and how many time she filled it (11).

Answer:

The best estimate is 150

Step-by-step explanation:

It is very important to understand that Maria has a tank that has a volume capacity of 14 gallons. When the problem says that she has filled the tank 11 times, it means that she has filled the tank and then emptied it for refilling again. She repeated the process 11 times.

So, for solving the problem, it is necessary to multiply the tank capacity by the times Maria refilled it.

volume_{total}=14\cdot 11=154gallon

The number 154 is not an option so you must choose the value that better approaches to 154, it is 150 because the difference is the lowest.

The best estimate is 150

Six balls are selected at random without replacement from an urn containing three white balls and five blue balls. find the prob
LenKa [72]
<span>25/28 is the probability of picking two or three white balls. Given that there are only 8 balls in total and of those 8, 5 of them are blue, this problem can be turned around to "What's the probability of selecting 5 blue balls?" And then subtracting that result from 1. There are a total of 6 ways of selecting all 5 blue balls. The only difference is when the single white ball is selected. The 6 ways are BBBBBW, BBBBWB, ..., WBBBBB. So let's calculate the probability of each of those 6. 5/8 * 4/7 * 3/6 * 2/5 * 1/4 * 3/3 + 5/8 * 4/7 * 3/6 * 2/5 * 3/4 * 1/3 + 5/8 * 4/7 * 3/6 * 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 + 5/8 * 4/7 * 3/6 * 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 + 5/8 * 3/7 * 4/6 * 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 + 3/8 * 5/7 * 4/6 * 3/5 * 2/4 * 1/3 = ? If you look closely at each of the 6 lines, you'll realize that the numerator will always be the product of 5!3 and the denominator will be 3*4*5*6*7*8. So, let's simplify to 6*5!3/(3*4*5*6*7*8) = 6*5*4*3*2*3/(3*4*5*6*7*8) = 2*3/(7*8) = 3/(7*4) = 3/28 Now we just need to calculate 1 - 3/28 = 28/28 - 3/28 = 25/28</span>

9880 different possibilities are there in Sally's new combination option second 9880 is correct.

<h3>What is permutation and combination?</h3>

A permutation is the number of different ways a set can be organized; order matters in permutations, but not in combinations.

We have:

Total unique numbers consists in a Sally locker = 3

From the digits 0 to 39

Total numbers = 40

Apply combination formula:

= C(40, 3)

= 40!/(3!37!)

= 9880

Thus, 9880 different possibilities are there in Sally's new combination option second 9880 is correct.
