A box of cookies contains 4 chocolate and 6 butter cookies. Miguel randomly selects a cookie and eats it. Then he randomly selec

ts another cookie and eats it. Are the probabilities for the flavor of the second cookie that Miguel selects independent of his first selection? Explain. The probabilities for the second cookie selection are independent of the first selection. The cookies are replaced after selecting them. The probabilities for the second cookie selection are dependent on the first selection. The probability of selecting a chocolate cookie second is the same as selecting a butter cookie. The probabilities for the second cookie selection are dependent on the first selection. The probability of a chocolate cookie being selected second is dependent on whether a chocolate or butter cookie was selected first. The probabilities for the second cookie selection

Answer:

The probability of the flavor of the second cookie is always going to be dependent on the first one eaten.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number of the type of cookies left depends on the first cookie taken out.

This is better explained with an example:

  1. Probability Miguel eats a chocolate cookie is 4/10. The probability he eats a chocolate or butter cookie after that is <u>3/9</u> and <u>6/9</u> respectively. This is because there are now only 3 chocolate cookies left and still 6 butter cookies left.
  2. In another case, Miguel gets a butter cookie on the first try with the probability of 6/10. The cookies left are now 4 chocolate and 5 butter cookies. The probability of the next cookie being chocolate or butter is now <u>4/9</u> and <u>5/9</u> respectively.

The two scenarios give us different probabilities for the second cookie. This means that the probability of the second cookie depends on the first cookie eaten.

Hi 6 6 h h 13 13 Find the missing height. h = h=h, equals units The parallelogram shown below has an area of 72 7272 units 2 2 s
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

Height=12 Units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a parallelogram with base b, and a perpendicular height, h. The area of the parallelogram is derived using the formula:

Area of a parallelogram=Base X Perpendicular Height

Given an area of 72 Units Squared.

Since I am not certain of the length of the base given:

If b=6

Area=bh

72=6h

Dividing both sides by 6

h=12 Units.

Height=12 Units

You can use the given formula to solve for the height,h of the parallelogram given any base b.

Answer:

82 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

So first calculate the percentage 37 minutes is. It is 45%

Next find how much 1% is.

Divide by 45.

\frac{37}{45}

Multiply by 100 to find how much the whole time is: \frac{3700}{45}

The decimal version is: 82.2222222222...

Which simplifies to 82 minutes.

At Best Buy they have a stereo system that sells for $2200 and is on sale for 15% and sales tax is 7%. What is the final cost? (
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Final cost = $3070.90

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find the discount

Discount = original price * percent off

Discount = 2200 * .15

Discount = 330

Sale price = original price - discount

Sale price = 3200-330

Sale price = 2870

Now we need to calculate tax

Tax = sales price times tax rate

Tax = 2870 * .07

     = 200.90

Final price = sales price plus tax

Final price = 2870 + 200.90

                   3070.90
