It will take 6 gallons of water.

4÷2=2
30÷2=15
(every 15 plants you'll use 2 gallons)
15•3=45
2•3=6 gallons

Write a proportion like so:

4 gallons/30 plants= x gallons/45 plants

Cross multiply to find the value of x
4*45= 180
180/30= 6=x

Final answer: 6 gallons

Events A and B are independent. Find the missing probability. Enter your answer as a decimal rounded to two places.

Leya [2.2K]

ANSWER

$P(not \: B) = \frac{1}{4}$

EXPLANATION

If A and B are independent events, then

P(A and B)=P(A)×P(B)

$\frac{3}{10} = \frac{2}{5} \times \: P(B)$

Multiply both sides by;

$\frac{5}{2}$

$\frac{5}{2} \times \frac{3}{10} = \frac{5}{2} \times \frac{2}{5} \times \: P(B)$

$\frac{3}{4} =P(B)$

$P(not \: B) = 1 - P(B)$

$P(not \: B) = 1 - \frac{3}{4}$

$P(not \: B) = \frac{1}{4}$
