Urn 1 = 4 green balls and 6 blue balls, a total of 10 balls
Urn 2 = 6 green balls and 2 blue balls, a total of 8 balls.

Probability of blue balls:
Urn 1 : P = 6/10 
Urn 2 : P = 2/8 

Probability that both balls are blue:
6/10 * 2/8 = 6*2 / 10*8 = 12/80 = 6/40 = 3/20 

Answer is B. 3/20

A ski gondola carries skiers to the top of a mountain. assume that weights of skiers are normally distributed with a mean of 199
Allushta [10]
A) maximum mean weight of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ number of passengers
</span><span>
maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 </span>÷ 25 = <span>150lb

</span>B)  First, find the z-score:
z = (value - mean) / stdev
   = (150 - 199) / 41
   = -1.20

We need to find P(z > -1.20) = 1 - P(z < -1.20)

Now, look at a standard normal table to find <span>P(z < -1.20) = 0.11507, therefore:
</span>P(z > -1.20) = 1 - <span>0.11507 = 0.8849

Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 25 randomly selected skiers exceeds 150lb is about 88.5%</span> </span>

C) With only 20 passengers, the new maximum mean weight of passengers = 3750 ÷ 20 = <span>187.5lb

Let's repeat the steps of point B)

z = (187.5 - 199) / 41
   = -0.29

P(z > -0.29) = 1 - P(z < -0.29) = 1 - 0.3859 = 0.6141

</span>Hence, <span>the probability that the mean weight of 20 randomly selected skiers exceeds 187.5lb is about 61.4%

D) The mean weight of skiers is 199lb, therefore:
number</span> of passengers = <span>load limit ÷ <span>mean weight of passengers
                                     = 3750 </span></span><span>÷ 199
                                     = 18.8
The new capacity of 20 skiers is safer than 25 skiers, but we cannot consider it safe enough, since the maximum capacity should be of 18 skiers.</span>

In the year 2005, a total of 750 fish were introduced into a manmade lake. The fish population was expected to grow at a rate of
rewona [7]
Exponential change can be modeled by:
N = N(0) x λⁿ; where λ is the rate of change. It is greater than 1 when there is growth and less than 1 when there is decay. n is the number of time periods passed.
λ is 1 + 0.083 = 1.083
N(0) is the initial value of 750
n is 2050 - 2005 = 45 years
N = 750 x (1.083)⁴⁵
= 27,000 fish
