To solve the problem we must establish two equations.
let x be the mass of the 20 cents almonds
y be the mass of the 36 cents mixture
first equation is:

x + 40 = y

the second equation is:
0.2x + 40(0.4) = 0.36y

solving the equations simultaneously
x = 10 lb of the 20 cents almonds is needed to mix

A fair die is rolled in a board game to determine how many spaces a player can move on their turn. It has one of the numbers 1,2
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

(a)6 (b)3 (c)0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a fair die with the numbers 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 on each of its faces.

  • Event A is the event of rolling an even number
  • Event B is the event of rolling an odd number.

(a)The sample space for the outcomes in this experiment is {1,2,3,4,5,6}

There are <u>6</u><u> </u>outcomes in the sample space.

n(S)=6

(b)

Event A is the event of rolling an even number

Sample space of A = {2,4,6}

There are <u>3</u> outcomes in event A.

n(A)=3

(c)The probability of event A

P(A)=\dfrac{n(A)}{n(S)} =\dfrac{3}{6} =0.5

P(A) =<u>0.5</u> is the probability that you choose an even number.
