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}

Need help horribly geometry question
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

23.31 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 47°

Opp = 25 ft

Adj = x

Apply trigonometry ratio TOA:

Tan 47 = Opp/Adj

Tan 47 = 25/x

x*Tan 47 = 25

x = 25/Tan 47

x = 23.3128772 ≈ 23.31 ft (to 2 d.p)

If f(x) = 3a|4x - 4| - ax, where a is some constant not equal to zero, find f '(1)
dlinn [17]
The slope of an absolute function at the point where it evaluates to zero is undefined.
Here, when x=1, so |4x-4|=|4-4|=|0|, the slope is undefined.  This is where the vertex of the "V" on the graph of the absolute value function.
