Answer:

<em></em>Probability = \frac{18}{1860480}<em></em>

<em></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Soda = 10

Sprite = 4

Dr. Pepper = 3

Cherry Coke = 3

Required

Determine the probability of picking Dr. pepper the fourth and fifth

First, we need to sum up the number of drinks

Total = 10 + 4 + 3 + 3

Total = 20

First Selection: Dr. Pepper

P_1= \frac{3}{20}

Since its probability without replacement;

<em>At this stage: Dr. Pepper = 2 and Total = 19</em>

Second Selection: Cherry Coke

P_2= \frac{3}{19}

<em>At this stage: Dr. Pepper = 2; Cherry Coke = 2 and Total = 18</em>

<em></em>

Third Selection: Cherry Coke

P_3= \frac{2}{18}

P_3= \frac{1}{9}

<em>At this stage: Dr. Pepper = 2; Cherry Coke = 1 and Total = 17</em>

<em></em>

Fourth Selection: Dr. Pepper

P_4= \frac{2}{17}

<em>At this stage: Dr. Pepper = 1; Cherry Coke = 1 and Total = 16</em>

<em></em>

Fifth Selection: Dr. Pepper

P_5= \frac{1}{16}

<em></em>

<em>Multiply the calculated probabilities, to give the required probability</em>

<em></em>Probability = P_1 * P_2 * P_3 * P_4 * P_5<em></em>

<em></em>Probability = \frac{3}{20} * \frac{3}{19} * \frac{1}{9} * \frac{2}{17} * \frac{1}{16}<em></em>

<em></em>Probability = \frac{3 * 3 * 1 * 2 * 1}{20 * 19 * 18 * 17 * 16}<em></em>

<em></em>Probability = \frac{18}{1860480}<em></em>

A garage door code has 5 digits. if no digits is repeated, how many codes are possible?
Nataly_w [17]
There are 10 possible digits.

There are 5 position.

So since we cannot repeat same digital, there is 10 possible digits for first position.

We selected one. Now move to second position. We already selected one digit so now there are 9 possible digits. Just select one.

Now move to third position. Again, we already selected another digit so now there are 8 possible digits for third position.

Repeat until you run out of position.

So that would be 10·9·8·7·6 = 30240

There are 30240 possible codes.

Hope this helps.
