Answer:

A) The probability that each player gets an ace, a 2 and a 3 with the order unimportant = (72/1925) = 0.0374

B) The probability of winning the jackpot = (1/1200) = 0.0008333

Step-by-step explanation:

A) There are four Aces, four 2's, and four 3's, forming a set of 12 cards

These cards are to be divided at random between 4 players.

What is the probability that each player gets an ace, a 2 and a 3.

We start with the first player, the probability of these cards for the first player, with order not important (because order isn't important, there are 6 different arrangement of the 3 cards)

6 × (4/12) × (4/11) × (4/10) = (16/55)

Then the second player getting that same order of cards

6 × (3/9) × (3/8) × (3/7) = (9/28)

Third player

6 × (2/6) × (2/5) × (2/4) = (2/5)

Fourth player

6 × (1/3) × (1/2) × (1/1) = 1

Probability that each of the players get different cards is then a multiple of the probabilities obtained above

= (16/55) × (9/28) × (2/5) × 1

= (288/7700) = (72/1925) = 0.0374

B) The concluding part of the B question.

To win the jackpot, the numbers on your ticket must match the three white balls and the SuperBall. (You don't need to match the white balls in order). If you buy a ticket, what is your probability of winning the jackpot?

Probability of wimning the jackpot is a product the probability of getting the 3 white balls correctly (order unimportant) and the probability of picking the right red superball

Probability of picking 3 white balls from 10

First slot, any of the 3 lucky numbers can fill this slot, (3/10)

Second slot, only 2 remaining lucky numbers can fill this slot, (2/9)

Third slot, only 1 remaining lucky number can fill this slot, (1/8)

(3/10) × (2/9) × (1/8) = (1/120)

Probability of picking the right red superball

(1/10)

Probability of winning the jackpot = (1/120) × (1/10) = (1/120) × (1/10) = (1/1200) = 0.0008333

Hope this Helps!!!

Company A had a loss of $255 in January. Company B had a profit of $162 in January. What was the difference between the profits
Julli [10]

Answer:

The difference of the profit of two companies is $ 417

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The company A loss amount in January = $ 255

The company B profit amount in January = $ 162

Let the difference between there profits = x

So, x = company B profit - ( company A profit)

I.e x = company B profit - ( - company A loss)

Or, x = $ 255 + $162

∴   x = $ 417

Hence The difference of the profit of two companies is $ 417  . Answer

Jack and Jane are married and both work. However, due to their responsibilities at home, they have decided that they do not want
Sergeeva-Olga [200]
By setting up a system of equations we can easily solve this problem. Let's denote Jane's working hours with x and Jack's working hours with y. Since they don't want to work more than 65 hours, the first equation is x+y=65. The second equation is 14x+7y=770. By solving this system of equation \left \{ {{x+y=65} \atop {14x+7y=770}} \right., we find that y=20 hours, which is Jack's maximum working hours.

Monica [59]
Micah is 5 inches shorter than twice the height of Jasmine

Micah = 5 inches shorter than 2 x Jasmine

Micah = 2 x Jasmine - 5    <em>(jasmine is 32 inches tall. Replace jasmine with 32)
</em>
Micah = 2 x 32 - 5

Micah = 64 - 5

Micah = 59

Micah is 59 inches tall
