- $\frac{17}{3}$

note that 8 + $\frac{1}{2}$ = 8 $\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{17}{2}$

then multiplying the values gives

- $\frac{2}{3}$ × $\frac{17}{2}$ ( cancelling the 2' s )

= - $\frac{17}{3}$ = - 5 $\frac{2}{3}$

Mixed in a drawer are 44 blue socks, 88 white socks, and 44 gray socks. You pull out two socks, one at a time, without looki

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

The probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is 1/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the drawer,

Number of blue socks = 4

Number of white socks = 8

Number of gray socks = 4

Total number of socks = 4 + 8 + 4 = 16

Total ways to select 2 socks form 16 socks is

$^{16}C_2=\dfrac{16!}{2!(16-2)!}=120$

Total ways to select 2 socks of the same color is

T = Possible ways of (2 blue + 2 white +2 gray) socks

= $^{4}C_2+^{8}C_2+^{4}C_2$

= $6+28+6$

= $40$

The probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is

$Probability=\dfrac{\text{Total ways to select 2 socks of the same color}}{\text{Total ways to select 2 socks form 16 socks}}$

$Probability=\dfrac{40}{120}$

$Probability=\dfrac{1}{3}$

Therefore, the probability of getting 2 socks of the same color is 1/3.

A particular fruit's weights are normally distributed, with a mean of 618 grams and a standard deviation of 24 grams. If you pic

Lorico [155]

Answer: The probability is 0.5136.

To find this probability we have to find the range of the values on the normal distribution table.

First, we need to find the percent for each making z-score.

Lower end: 50/24 = 2.08 = 0.0183

Upper end: 2/24 = 0.08 = 0.5319

Now, that we have the upper and lower ends, we can subtract them to find the difference or the range.

0.5319 - 0.0183 = 0.5136

There is a 51.36% chance they are in the given range.
