Answer:

Therefore the required probability is \frac{30}{351}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events are dependents event if the occurrence of one of them has effect on the probability of the other.

If A and B are dependents,

then,

P(AB)=P(A)P(B).

Given that,

There are 27 chocolates in a box.

Number of nuts chocolates = 4

Number of caramel chocolates = 8

Number of solid chocolates= 15.

The probability of that a solid candy is drawn is

=\frac{\textrm{Number of solid chocolate}}{\textrm{Total number of chocolate}}

=\frac{15}{27}.

After selecting a solid chocolate, the number of chocolate is= (27-1)=26.

The probability that a nut candy is drawn is

=\frac{\textrm{Number of nut chocolate}}{\textrm{Total number of chocolate}}

=\frac{4}{26}

=\frac{2}{13}

Therefore the required probability is

=\frac{15}{27}\times\frac{2}{13}

=\frac{30}{351}

Which ordered pair is a solution of the equation
andrew11 [14]
(0,-7)
-7=11(0)+4
-7=0+4
-7 is not 4 -----not a solution

(-1,-7)
-7=11(-1)+4
-7=-11+4
-7=-7 ----solution

(1,-7)
-7=11(1)+4
-7=11+4
-7=15
-7 is not 15 ----not a solution

(2,26)
26=11(2)+4
26=22+4
26=26 ----soltion

(-1, -7) & (2, 26) are solutions to the equation

What is the counter example of when it rains it pours
Ganezh [65]
A counterexample proves something wrong. To disprove "When it rains, it pours," you could give an example of a time when it rains and does not pour. What if it only rains a little? What if it rains frogs? How are you supposed to "pour" frogs? I dunno. This is sort of an open-ended question. I'd go with "It drizzles, but does not pour."

Determine the value of a, b, and c for the quadratic equation: 4x2- 8x = 3
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

B. a = 4, b = -8, c = -3

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic equation given is:

4x^2- 8x = 3

The general form of a quadratic equation is given as:

ax^2 + bx +c = 0

Let us put the given equation in this form and then compare with the general form of the quadratic equation.

4x^2- 8x = 3\\\\4x^2 - 8x - 3 = 0

Therefore, by comparing:

a = 4

b = -8

c = -3

The correct option is B
