A bag contains 4 blue marbles and 2 yellow marbles. Two marbles are randomly chosen (the first marble is NOT replaced before dra

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue.

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand conditional probability(for the final question) and the hypergeometric distribution(for the first three, because the balls are chosen without being replaced).

Hypergeometric distribution:

The probability of x sucesses is given by the following formula:

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

In which:

x is the number of sucesses.

N is the size of the population.

n is the size of the sample.

k is the total number of desired outcomes.

Combinations formula:

$C_{n,x}$ is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}$

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

$P(A \cap B)$ is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

What is the probability that both marbles are blue?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

4 blue, which means that $k = 4$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,4) = \frac{C_{4,2}*C_{2,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.4$

0.4 = 40% probability that both marbles are blue

What is the probability that both marbles are yellow?

4 + 2 = 6 total marbles, which means that $N = 6$

2 yellow, which means that $k = 2$

Sample of 2, which means that $n = 2$

This is P(X = 2). So

$P(X = x) = h(x,N,n,k) = \frac{C_{k,x}*C_{N-k,n-x}}{C_{N,n}}$

$P(X = 2) = h(2,6,2,2) = \frac{C_{2,2}*C_{4,0}}{C_{6,2}} = 0.0667$

0.0667 = 6.67% probability that both marbles are yellow.

What is the probability of one blue and then one yellow?

Total is 100%.

Can be:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

One blue and one yellow(x%). So

40 + 6.67 + x = 100

x = 100 - 46.67

x = 53.33

53.33% probability of one blue and then one yellow.

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, what is the probability that both are blue?

Conditional probability.

Event A: Both same color

Event B: Both blue

Probability of both being same color:

Both blue(40%)

Both yellow(6.67%)

This means that $P(A) = 0.4 + 0.0667 = 0.4667$

Probability of both being the same color and blue:

40% probability that both are blue, which means that $P(A \cap B) = 0.4$

Desired probability:

$P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.4}{0.4667} = 0.8571$

If you are told that both selected marbles are the same color, 0.8571 = 85.71% probability that both are blue

The length of a rectangle is 5959 inches greatergreater than twice the width. if the diagonal is 2 inches more than the length,

lorasvet [3.4K]

Length: 2w + 59

width: w

diagonal: (2w + 59) + 2 = 2w + 61

Length² + width² = diagonal²

(2w + 59)² + (w)² = (2w + 61)²

(4w² + 118w + 3481) + w² = 4w² + 122w + 3721

5w² + 118w + 3481 = 4w² + 122w + 3721

w² + 118w + 3481 = 122w + 3721

w² - 4w + 3481 = 3721

w² - 4w - 240 = 0

a = 1, b = -4, c = -240

w = $[-(b) +/- \sqrt{(b)^{2} - 4(a)(c) }]/2(a)$

= $[-(-4) +/- \sqrt{(-4)^{2} - 4(1)(-240) }]/2(1)$

= $[4 +/- \sqrt{(16 + 960) }]/2$

= $[4 +/- \sqrt{(976) }]/2$

= $[2 +/- 4\sqrt{(61) }]/2$

= $1 +/- 2\sqrt{(61) }$

since width cannot be negative, disregard 1 - 2√61

w = 1 + 2√61 ≈ 16.62

Length: 2w + 59 = 2(1 + 2√61) + 59 = 2 + 4√61 + 59 = 61 + 4√61 ≈ 92.24

Answer: width = 16.62 in, length = 92.24 in

Write the equation of a line that is parallel to the line 2x - 3y = 5 and passes through the point (2, -1)

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

The equation of the line is 2x - 3y = 7 ⇒ answer A

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the relation between the parallel lines

- If two lines are equal then their slopes are equal

- We can make an equation of a line by using its slope and

a point on the line

- If the slope of the line is m and passing through the point (x1 , y1),

then we can use this form [y - y1]/[x - x1] = m to find the equation

* Lets solve the problem

- The line is parallel to the line 2x - 3y = 5

∴ the slope of the line = the slope of the line 2x - 3y = 5

- Rearrange the terms of the equation to be in the form

y = mx + c to find the slope of it

∵ 2x - 3y = 5 ⇒ subtract 2x from both sides

∴ -3y = 5 - 2x ⇒ divide two sides by -3

∴ y = 5/-3 - 2x/-3 ⇒ y = 2/3 x - 5/3

∴ The slop of the line is 2/3

∵ The line passes through point (2 , -1)

* Lets use the rule to find the equation of the line

∵ y - (-1)/x - 2 = 2/3

∴ y + 1/x - 2 = 2/3 ⇒ by using cross multiplication

∴ 3(y + 1) = 2(x - 2) ⇒ open the brackets

∴ 3y + 3 = 2x - 4 ⇒ put x an d y in one side

∴ 2x - 3y = 3 + 4

∴ 2x - 3y = 7

* The equation of the line is 2x - 3y = 7
