Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: p = \frac{4}{5}

Number chosen is 10: p = \frac{1}{5}

Number chosen is 20:p = \frac{2}{5}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We have , List A contains the numbers [20,10,30], while list B contains the numbers [10,30,20,40,30]. We choose one number from list A randomly and one number from list B randomly. Let's assume 3 cases for above problem:

Number chosen is 20:

We compare that 20 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{2}{5}.

Number chosen is 10:

We compare that 10 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{1}{5}.

Number chosen is 30:

We compare that 30 from list A is greater than or equal to 10 , 20, 30,30 in list B . So probability that this number drew  from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is p = \frac{4}{5}.

∴ Chance that the number we drew from list A is larger than or equal to the number we drew from list B is as

Number chosen is 30: p = \frac{4}{5}

Number chosen is 10: p = \frac{1}{5}

Number chosen is 20:p = \frac{2}{5}

A certain radioactive isotope has leaked into a small stream. Three hundred days after the​ leak, 3% of the original amount of t
sesenic [268]
If the half-life is t, then every t days, the amount of the radioactive isotope will be cut in half.
(1/2)^(number of half-lives) = 3%
number of half-lives = ln(0.03) / ln(0.5)
This gives the number of half-lives as 5.06.
Then 300 days = (5.06)(length of 1 half-life)
length of 1 half-life = 300 / 5.06 = 59.29 days

What do I do to figure out this problem:<br>3x+8=26+x
Gnom [1K]
<span><u>3x + 8 = 26 + x</u>

The first thing you need to do is understand what you're looking for ...
what a 'solution' means, what it looks like, and how you even know
when you have it.    I'm not sure you're there yet.

The 'answer' or the 'solution' to the problem is a number.  It's the number
that 'x' must be in order for that line at the top to be a true statement.  There's
only one possibility.

To find it, you can do anything you want to either side of the problem, as long as
you do exactly the same thing to the other side too.  With that ability, here's how
to 'figure out the problem', and find the answer:

The original problem:      </span><span><u>3x + 8 = 26 + x</u>

Subtract 8 from each side:

3x = 18 + x

Subtract 'x' from each side:

2x = 18

Divide each side by 2 :

<u>x = 9 </u> .

That's what the answer looks like, and that's what the answer is.

' 9 ' is the ONLY number you can write in place of 'x' in the problem,
and have the problem read true.

I'll show you what I mean.  Let's take the original problem

                   </span><span> <u><span>3x + 8 = 26 + x

</span></u><span>and let's write ' 2 ' wherever we see 'x' :

3 (2) + 8 = 26 + 2

3 (2) means 3 times 2, and that's 6 .
So now we have

6 + 8 = 26 + 2

Do the addition on each side, and we have

14 = 28 .

That's nonsense.  14 is not equal to 28 .  The reason that happened
is because we put the wrong number in place of 'x' .  When we put the
correct number in place of 'x', the left side will be equal to the right side.
To 'figure out the problem' means to find out what that number must be.
For this particular problem, it's 9 .

1)

1,1+r,1+2r,1+3r=-17

1+3r=-17

3r=-18

r=-6

Sequence is 1,-5,-11,-17

2)
